Perth Chiropractors
Headaches, neck pain or back pain?
Our experienced Perth Chiros can help you feel good again.
Pain is your body trying to tell you something and often that something is that not everything is functioning as it should be. The stresses of our modern lifestyle aren’t friendly to our bodies. Whether you’re at a desk for 8 hours, laying bricks or carrying the kids around the supermarket, your body needs looking after. Often the small niggles and aches that you’ve been putting up with are actually your bodies warning signs that something isn’t right.
Our specialist chiropractic care focuses on gently restoring proper spinal alignment so you can feel good again and your body can function the way it was designed. The body is a marvellous thing and can heal almost anything – with a little help. Our chiropractors follow a unique approach to treatment, designed to help you see improvements quickly, while promoting long term health and wellbeing.
Perth Chiropractic Treatment
How it works
Experience a non-invasive and drug free approach to restoring the integrity of the spine and nervous system and its surrounding tissues to enhance normal body function and health.
This is the largest drug-free health care profession in the world and has been safely practised throughout the world for over 100 years on people of all ages, from babies to the elderly.
Our team believes that many health problems stem from a misalignment or subluxation of the spine. A subluxation of the spine can occur from everyday life events such as the:
- physical stress of repetitive work, injuries, car accidents, poor posture;
- mental stress from relationships and work; and
- chemical stress of poor diet, alcohol and drugs.
We’ll determine and correct the subluxation by applying gentle, controlled force in a precise direction to the spine and or joints of the body with their hands or a small instrument known as an activator. The purpose of this chiropractic adjustment is to bring the body back into alignment, eliminate interference to the nervous system and consequently, restore the body’s health.

We're not just a "crack-and-go" clinic.
While many people expect to undergo manual adjustments, this is just a small part of what we do. Our chiropractic services aren’t just a “crack and go”. They’re designed to help you realise your health goals as soon as possible, through the most appropriate methods & techniques for you.
It’s for this reason we take the time required in appointments to listen to you, and understand what you want and what’s going on. For subsequent visits, our team of experts take the time to make sure you’re making progress and getting closer to your desired outcome. Many other chiro practices simply don’t do this, they spend a few minutes each week on a manual adjustment and send you on your way.
At our Perth chiro clinic, we truly want to see you lead a happier, healthier, more pain-free lifestyle. This is why we take the time to understand the root cause of your pain and address it holistically. Our chiropractors aren’t just highly skilled in traditional, manual adjustment, but also in neurology—understanding the connection between your brain, spine and nervous system. This enables us to detect and correct the cause of an issue; not just treat the symptoms.
Good health is complex, and requires careful consideration of the bigger picture—not just physical well being and posture, but emotional and nutritional health; encompassing stress, sleep, hormones, digestion and a whole range of other factors. They’re all important on your road back to a happy and more pain-free life, and we can help you address them all.

We know our spine is the main structure that allows the body to move, stand and balance. However many are unaware of the importance of the spine protecting the nervous system. The nervous system is the electricity of our body that not only controls our movements (activating muscles and joints) but also our vital organs. […]

Is chiropractic treatment safe?
Chiropractors are university-trained professionals who have received a five-year degree to care for their clients using extremely safe, gentle and scientific techniques. The New Zealand government’s Commission of Inquiry into Chiropractic concluded: “Spinal adjusting is a vital, very safe and clinically effective form of health care. Chiropractors have more thorough training in spinal mechanics and spinal care than any other health professional. Furthermore, chiropractic is scientifically based.”
Our Karrinyup chiropractors assess your condition and choose the most appropriate techniques just for you.
Do I need chiropractic treatment?
Are you dealing with pain? Is it hindering your everyday life? Our skilled chiropractors at Karrinyup Wellness Centre offer a natural and effective alternative for managing joint and muscle pain, especially when dealing with chronic discomfort. By adjusting your body and restoring balance, chiropractic care can reduce pain and increase your overall freedom. Our chiros believe in a holistic approach to your well-being and view chiropractic care as a way to maintain healthy function and prevent future health issues. Even if you’re not currently experiencing pain, investing in chiropractic care now can build a healthier foundation and protect against negative health impacts down the road.
What is a chiropractic adjustment?
A chiropractic adjustment is the skill of using a specific force in a precise direction, applied to a joint that is fixated, “locked up”, or not moving properly. This adds motion to the joint, helping the joints to gradually regain more normal motion and function. The purpose of this safe and natural procedure is to permit improved spinal function, improved nervous system function, and improved health.
There are many ways to adjust the spine. Usually, the chiropractor’s hands or a specially designed instrument delivers a brief and highly-accurate thrust. Some adjusting methods are quick, whereas others require slow, constant or indirect pressure.
After years of university training and clinical experience, all of our chiropractors are highly skilled in the delivery of a variety of chiropractic adjustments.
Are all patients adjusted the same way?
Our chiropractors recognise that every patient is uniquely different and your care should be too. Our Karrinyup chiropractors will evaluate your unique symptoms, age and condition to develop an individual treatment approach.
What kind of education and training do chiropractors have?
To become a registered chiropractor in Australia you must study an accredited five-year chiropractic program conducted at an Australian university, or have completed an accredited program overseas that satisfies the requirements set by the Australian Chiropractic Regulating authority.
A chiropractor’s education never ends. After graduating from university, chiropractors must complete professional development courses and seminars on a continuous basis to improve and develop their skills and to stay up-to-date on the latest scientific research.
Will my visits to the chiropractor be covered by private health insurance?
Private health insurance companies recognise the benefits of chiropractic and provide rebates to their members. At Karrinyup Wellness Centre we also provide HICAPS facilities. This means you can claim back onsite for immediate rebates. How much you can claim back each time you visit a chiropractor, and the maximum amount you can claim per year, will vary depending on the health cover you choose.
Can a chiropractor fix a slipped disc?
Are you struggling with the pain and discomfort of disc bulges, but hesitant to turn to drugs or injections for relief? Our chiropractors have a solution that’s both effective and gentle. Using a non-invasive approach, we focus on treating the symptoms associated with disc bulges without resorting to invasive procedures.
But we don’t just look at the affected area – our whole-body approach takes into account your entire spine and body. Often, we find that other areas of dysfunction in the body can be related to your symptoms. That’s why, at your initial appointment, our experienced chiropractors will take the time to get a clear diagnosis of your condition. We’ll ask about your history, conduct a physical exam, and test nerve function, reflexes, and muscle tone. In some cases, we may even recommend X-rays or an MRI scan to get a more accurate diagnosis.
Once we have a clear understanding of your condition, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan that may include gentle chiropractic adjustments to your entire spine, pelvic blocking, postural correction, nutritional recommendations, muscle releasing and strengthening, and lifestyle advice.
Is it bad to crack your own neck or back?
Do you find yourself constantly cracking your neck or back to alleviate pain? It’s a common habit among those who suffer from neck or back discomfort, but did you know that it may actually be doing more harm than good? The truth is, cracking your own neck or back may provide temporary relief, but it doesn’t address the root issue. In fact, over time, you may find yourself needing to crack your neck more frequently just to feel relief.
What’s more, when you crack your own neck or back, you’re often targeting the wrong joint. This can exacerbate the problem and make things worse in the long run. Fortunately, chiropractic care is a specialised field that focuses on spinal conditions and their management. At Karrinyup Wellness Centre, our skilled chiropractors are experts in getting to the underlying cause of your neck or back pain and providing effective, natural treatment to help you recover.
Where can I find Karrinyup chiropractors?
Karrinyup Wellness Centre is a holistic healing and chiropractic centre dedicated to getting you back to health. We’re located at 168 Karrinyup Road, towards the beach from Karrinyup Shopping Centre. Open 6 days a week, our opening hours are 7:30am to 6:30pm on weekdays, and 7:30am to 2:30pm on Saturdays.
What can I expect from my first chiro appointment?
Before your appointment, you’ll need to download and complete our online form or arrive 15 minutes early to fill it out in person. Then, one of our experienced chiropractors will assess your complete health history and perform a thorough examination that includes a chiropractic, neurological, and orthopaedic exam. This will help us determine the appropriate course of care for you.
In some cases, your chiropractor may also require you to have a spinal x-ray to get a better understanding of the condition and position of your spine, as well as any stress areas that may affect your spinal health over time. But don’t worry – we have digital x-ray facilities on-site for your convenience.
At your second appointment, you’ll receive a Report of Findings that explains the results of your initial consultation, examination, posture photos, and x-rays (if taken). Your chiropractor will then present you with personalised care recommendations and adjust your spine as needed. From there, we’ll monitor your progress through periodic examinations and follow-up reports. We’ll also provide you with healthy lifestyle advice, including tips on nutrition and how to take care of your spine, to help you maintain optimal health.
How do chiros treat neck pain and headaches?
Our Karrinyup chiropractors can help with neck pain and headaches by identifying the root cause of your symptoms, which is often related to spinal misalignments or other musculoskeletal conditions.
At Karrinyup Wellness Centre, we take a holistic approach to treatment, beginning with a thorough consultation, history, physical examination, and possibly x-rays. Once we have identified the underlying cause of your neck pain and headaches, we will develop a customised treatment plan just for you.
Our treatment options may include specific chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapies, postural correction, neck stretching and mobilization, and lifestyle modifications such as ergonomic advice, exercise, stretching, stress management techniques, and dietary modifications. By combining these approaches, we can effectively treat your neck pain and headaches.
