How we help

Hands-on techniques built on decades of practice

Our core strength is manual, by-hand spinal adjustment. We draw on a range of techniques to match every patient's needs — from the very young to the very experienced in life.

Diversified & Gonstead

The foundations of manual chiropractic — precise, by-hand spinal adjustments tailored to your specific presentation.

Activator Method

A gentle, low-force instrument-assisted technique — often chosen for patients who prefer a softer adjustment.

Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT)

A whole-body structural approach working from the sacrum through the spine to the occiput.

Trigger Point Dry Needling

Fine needles placed into muscle trigger points to reduce tension and improve function.

Soft Tissue, Cranial & Rehabilitation

Cranial adjustments, soft tissue therapy, exercise advice, ergonomic guidance and rehabilitation programs — a complete toolkit for long-term wellbeing.

Infants & Children

Special gentle techniques for infants and children. The clinic has served families across generations since 1964.

Onsite X-Ray

X-ray facilities on site at Footscray Chiropractic Clinic, available to help streamline your treatment.
