Chiropractic care focuses on optimising the health of the spine and nervous system. Dr. Carolyn is trained to identify, diagnose, and manage a variety of conditions, including neck and back pain, headaches, migraines, sciatica, whiplash injuries, hip pain, disc bulges, and TMJ or jaw dysfunction. She also provides expert care for issues involving the extremities—shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, and ankle—ensuring comprehensive support for your musculoskeletal health as your Balaclava Chiropractor or Melbourne Chiropractor.

Dr. Carolyn has a special interest in pregnancy, postpartum, and paediatric care, having completed extensive postgraduate training in these areas and is certified in the Webster Technique. Many pregnant people seek her care to address pregnancy‑related concerns, such as lower back pain, abdominal discomfort, sciatica, pubic symphysis pain, round ligament pain, and upper back stiffness. She focuses on improving pelvic flexibility and alignment, helping to alleviate discomfort and support a more comfortable pregnancy and labour experience. As your local Pregnancy Chiropractic specialist and Pregnancy Chiropractor, she brings a gentle approach to every appointment.

Chiropractic care can be highly beneficial for children and babies. Birth itself, even in the most natural circumstances, can involve significant physical stress, prompting many parents to have their newborns checked for spinal health concerns. As a Baby Chiropractor and Kids Chiropractor, I carefully assess and monitor developmental milestones and reflexes throughout your child’s growth, ensuring they are within the normal range for their age. Techniques used for babies are specifically tailored — applying gentle pressure and breathing‑assisted methods to accommodate their delicate and growing bodies. Kids Chiropractic at our practice is gentle, safe, and designed to support your child’s healthy development.

Your journey to better health, improved movement, and lasting pain relief begins with chiropractic care and continues with a personalized rehabilitative program, including tailored exercise prescriptions for long-term improvement.

During your first appointment, Dr. Carolyn will conduct a thorough assessment of your entire body—not just the areas where you’re experiencing discomfort. This comprehensive approach helps identify functional weaknesses or poor movement patterns that may be contributing to your pain.

To support long-term recovery and prevent future issues, we prescribe targeted exercises designed to correct these imbalances. A rehabilitative program is essential for strengthening your body, improving mobility, and ensuring sustainable progress beyond our practice.
