🧠 Treating your nervous system, not just symptoms
📍 Inner West Sydney
👇Open 7 days a week Established in the 1970’s on the main street of Five Dock, the clinic has been working hard to provide high quality care to the local residents and greater community of inner western Sydney. Soft tissue therapy (massage) is a key component of the treatment offered at our Centre, along with osteopathic/chiropractic adjustments or mobilisations. We have found that by using this style of treatment we provide a high level of care to the majority of injuries or conditions that patients present with. This combined with our longer consultations’ and individualised approach ensures that the majority of our patients are extremely satisfied not only with the result of their treatment, but also with the time frame within which their presented complaint is resolved.

Holiday Stress Getting Physical? We Can Help. 🎄

Stress isn't just "in your head" – it's in your neck, shoulders, and jaw too.
During the holiday season, we see a spike in:

*Tension headaches and migraines
*Jaw clenching and TMJ pain
*Upper back and neck tightness
*Disrupted sleep patterns
*Increased muscle guarding

Here's what's happening: When you're stressed, your nervous system stays in "fight or flight" mode. This creates sustained muscle tension, reduces blood flow to tissues, and sensitises pain pathways. Your body literally holds the stress.

How we help:
Our multimodal approach combines chiropractic, osteopathic, and massage techniques to:
✓ Release muscle tension and restore normal movement
✓ Calm your nervous system through manual therapy
✓ Reduce pain signalling from overactive tissues
✓ Improve sleep quality through better body mechanics

You don't have to white-knuckle your way through the holidays. Whether it's gift shopping, family gatherings, or end-of-year deadlines causing your stress – we address how it's showing up in your body.

So here is a question we get asked all the time... Let's look at what 2024 research ACTUALLY shows.

New studies published this year reveal surprising findings about cervical manipulation and artery dissection risk. The evidence might not be what you expect.

We have been storing Bony 2.0 in the Christmas tree box while it has been so hot outside – otherwise he starts melting in the sun... but I think he is objecting and trying to escape. 😮💀

Your brain on chiropractic care. Literally. 🧠

New research (Brain Sciences, Nov 2024) shows 4 weeks of chiropractic care changed brain activity in 76 chronic pain patients—measured with EEG scans.

Results: Better sleep, less anxiety, less depression, less pain.

This is neuroplasticity in action. Your nervous system adapting to sensory input.

We're not cracking backs. We're influencing how your brain processes pain and threat.

That's evidence-based care.

DECEMBER FITNESS REALITY CHECK 🎯

Trying to make up for lost time before New Year's?
Here's what your body actually needs to hear:
Overloading after months of lower activity is how injuries happen. Your nervous system and tissues adapt to consistent, progressive load – not panic-driven fitness binges.

There's no shortcut to tissue tolerance.

You can't cram adaptation into 4 weeks just because the calendar changed.

If you're dealing with pain from doing too much too soon, we can help you build a sustainable plan.

Already dealing with pain from ramping up too fast? We combine manual therapy, exercise rehab, and education to get you back on track—sustainably.

Progress over perfection. Every time.
