Chiropractors are registered health practitioners who assess and manage conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system, including the spine, joints and muscles. At PHR, we take an individualised approach to care, combining hands-on treatment with advice and exercises where appropriate to help you move, function and feel your best.

Your first appointment is about understanding you and what brings you in. We'll discuss your concerns, health history and goals before carrying out an appropriate physical assessment. From there, we'll explain our findings and discuss suitable treatment options with you. Where appropriate, your first visit may include hands-on treatment and/or exercises.

Not at all. Many people visit for preventative care to maintain healthy movement and posture before problems develop, not just to address existing pain.

No. You don't need a GP referral to see a chiropractor. You can book directly with us and we'll assess your needs during your appointment. If we feel another healthcare professional or further investigation is more appropriate, we'll discuss this with you.

There's no one-size-fits-all answer. The frequency of appointments depends on your individual presentation, goals, response to care and what you and your chiropractor decide is appropriate. Your care plan can be reviewed as you progress, rather than assuming you'll need a fixed number of appointments.

Yes! We accept private health insurance with HICAPS claiming available at our clinic. If your policy includes chiropractic cover, you may be able to claim your eligible rebate at the time of your appointment.

Your rebate will depend on your individual level of cover, so we recommend checking with your health fund before your appointment if you're unsure what you're covered for.
