What a chiropractor can help Frankston people with
We look after spine, joint and nerve problems. These are some we see regularly:
- Sciatica and pain running down the leg.
- Disc bulges, where our flexion-distraction table, a gentle and rhythmic table-assisted technique, is often part of care.
- Whiplash after a car accident.
- Back pain from work, lifting or long hours sitting.
Clinical guidelines for low back pain include spinal manipulation among the options, alongside exercise and staying active. We'll check whether it's a good fit for you.
Your first visit with us
You'll start with a new patient appointment, 30–40 minutes long: your story, posture pictures, and a thorough chiropractic, orthopaedic and neurological check. Whether you're adjusted that day is up to the clinical judgement of your chiropractor, as more testing sometimes comes first.
At your report of findings appointment ($95), we explain what we found in plain English and what we'd recommend.
Our chiropractors are Dr Ben Carvosso, who has been adjusting spines for 35 years, and Dr Ryan Tan, who trained at RMIT and speaks English, Mandarin and Cantonese.
The new patient appointment is $195 normally. Book it online through this website and it's $125 (new practice members only, one per person).
