Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic Care in Australind

At Back On Track Chiro in Australind, we see people with a range of musculoskeletal problems involving the spine, joints and surrounding muscles.

People commonly come to see us for problems such as:

  • Lower back pain
  • Neck pain
  • Headaches
  • Sciatica and leg pain
  • Upper back pain
  • Shoulder pain
  • Hip and knee pain
  • Joint stiffness and restricted movement

The first step is understanding what is causing or contributing to your symptoms and what you would like to get back to doing.

What does chiropractic care involve?

Chiropractic care can include manual treatment to joints and muscles, advice about movement and activity, exercises, and strategies to help manage or reduce recurrence of a problem.

Treatment is tailored to the individual. The techniques used may vary depending on your age, health, condition, comfort level and preferences.

What is a chiropractic adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment is one type of manual treatment used to improve movement in a joint.

Adjustments can be performed in a number of ways. Some techniques use the chiropractor’s hands, while others use specialised tables, instruments or lower-force approaches.

Not everyone is treated the same way. We choose techniques based on the individual and explain what we recommend before treatment.

Is chiropractic care right for me?

That depends on the nature of your problem.

At your first appointment we’ll take a history, perform an appropriate examination and discuss what we find. If chiropractic care appears suitable, we’ll explain the options available. If another type of care or further investigation would be more appropriate, we’ll discuss that too.

Your goals matter

Pain relief can be important, but it is often only part of the picture. We also want to understand what you want your body to be able to do — whether that’s getting through a workday comfortably, returning to sport, playing with the kids, gardening, travelling, or even training for a marathon.

Your goals help guide care, so the focus is not only on how you feel today, but on the function, confidence and activities you want to get back to.
