Chiropractic care is generally considered safe when performed by a registered practitioner. All chiropractors at Vitality Chiropractic are registered with AHPRA and undergo thorough assessment before any treatment. We always explain what we're doing and obtain your consent.

Your first visit includes a detailed health history consultation, a postural and spinal assessment, and a clear explanation of our findings. We'll discuss a personalised treatment plan and may begin treatment during the same visit if appropriate.

Both chiropractors and physiotherapists treat musculoskeletal conditions. Chiropractors have a particular focus on the spine, nervous system, and the relationship between spinal health and overall body function. Physiotherapists tend to focus more broadly on rehabilitation and exercise therapy. In many cases both can help, and the right choice depends on your specific condition.

This varies depending on the nature and duration of your condition. After your initial assessment, we'll give you an honest estimate of the care needed to achieve your goals. We don't lock you into long plans. We reassess regularly and adjust as you progress.
