You've Tried Everything — But Every Monday Morning, You're Right Back Where You Started

You've done the physio exercises. Tried the heat packs, the anti-inflammatories, even the massage every few weeks. And it helps — for a day or two. Then the stiffness creeps back. The sharp catch when you bend. The dull ache that follows you through the day.

Here's what most people don't consider: the spot where you feel pain is rarely where the problem actually starts. Lower back pain often traces back to how your pelvis, hips, and spine are functioning as a system. If nobody has assessed that full picture, you're managing symptoms — not addressing what's driving them.

That's exactly what we assess at your first visit. Not just where it hurts — but why it keeps coming back.

Chiropractor — Balnarring Chiropractic

I started Balnarring Chiropractic because I believe everyone on the Peninsula deserves access to thorough, honest care — not a rushed appointment where you feel like a number.

I see a lot of patients who've been living with lower back pain for months or years, often bouncing between different practitioners without a clear answer. My approach is simple: take the time to properly assess what's going on, explain it in plain language, and build a plan that actually makes sense for your life.

If we can help, I'll tell you exactly how. If we can't, I'll point you in the right direction. No pressure, no lock-in — just honest care.

OUR APPROACH

How We Assess and Care for Lower Back Pain

A clear, systematic approach designed to get you back on your feet — and keep you there.

Full Structural Assessment:

We assess your lumbar spine, pelvis, hips, and posture to understand the full picture of what's contributing to your pain — not just the spot where it hurts. This is where most other approaches stop short.

Clear Findings & Personalised Plan:

We explain exactly what we found in plain language — no jargon, no guesswork. You'll leave with a realistic care plan, clear timeframes, and an understanding of what's actually going on.

Targeted Hands-On Care:

Spinal adjustments, joint mobilisation, soft tissue therapy, and targeted rehabilitation exercises — all focused on restoring movement and relieving pressure on the structures causing your pain.

Prevention & Long-Term Support:

We equip you with specific home exercises, ergonomic strategies, and movement advice so your back stays strong. The goal isn't to keep you coming forever — it's to give you the tools to stay well.

Common Questions

I've already tried chiropractic and it didn't help. Why would this be different?
Not all assessments are created equal. We spend 30 minutes on your initial visit to assess the full structural picture — pelvis, hips, lumbar spine, and posture — rather than just adjusting where it hurts. If we don't think we can help, we'll tell you directly and refer you to someone who can.
Do I need a GP referral?
No. You can book directly — no referral required. If you have imaging or reports from your GP, feel free to bring them along, but it's not necessary to get started.
Will it be painful? I'm nervous about being adjusted.
We adapt our techniques to suit your comfort level. Some patients prefer firm adjustments, others prefer gentle mobilisation — we always discuss this with you first and never do anything without your consent.
How many visits will I need?
It depends on what we find. After your first assessment, we'll give you a clear and realistic plan — including how many visits we'd recommend and over what timeframe. There's no pressure and no lock-in contract.
Can I claim on my health fund?
Yes — all major health funds are accepted and you can process your rebate on the spot with our HICAPS terminal before you leave.
