At Carrier Street Chiropractic we use Advanced Biostructural Correction (ABC) — a full-body adjusting technique that corrects structural misalignments your body can’t fix on its own. By restoring proper posture and spinal alignment, ABC aims to help improve posture, ease pain, increase mobility and even support better breathing and overall body function.
We do it because we believe lasting health starts with balance — body aligned, life optimised.

🌿 Meet Lisa Zagami! 🌿
We’re excited to introduce Lisa, one of our amazing chiropractors here at Carrier Street Chiropractic.
Lisa’s journey into chiropractic began after a back injury ended her soccer career at 19 — showing her firsthand how powerful the right spinal care can be. Now she’s passionate about helping people move better, feel stronger, and live pain-free.
She’s thrilled to be part of the Benalla community and can’t wait to meet more of you in the clinic.
✨ Fun fact: Lisa’s a huge foodie — so feel free to send your best local recommendations her way!

Did you know that men often wait longer to address health issues, including chronic pain?

This Movember, we're encouraging men to prioritise their health and book that check-up. Persistent back or neck pain isn't something you just have to "live with." Chiropractic care can offer effective, non-drug treatment options for acute and chronic back pain.

Don't wait until it's a major issue. Prioritise your well-being.

Call us today to schedule an appointment and take the first step towards feeling your best.

Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (WMSDs): What Are They?

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) encompass a diverse range of inflammatory and degenerative conditions affecting the muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, peripheral nerves, and supporting blood vessels. These disorders can arise from a single workspace event, but they often manifest from repeated harmful workspace activities over an extended period.

WorkSpace Week (20-26 October) serves as a platform to raise awareness and promote prevention efforts against WMSDs caused by physical stress, mental stress, repetitive work, and poorly designed non-ergonomic workspaces. Chronic neck and back pain, shoulder stiffness and headaches can be linked to modifiable risk factors in Australian workplaces.

To effectively manage WMSDs and ensure a healthy work environment, it is crucial to adopt a proactive approach. During WorkSpace Week, explore free resources, tips, and guidance at www.workspaceweek.org.au. Remember, prevention is the cornerstone of safeguarding your well-being and productivity.

🚧 WorkSpace Week: Maintaining Workplace Health

From October 20th to 26th, WorkSpace Week emphasises the importance of maintaining a healthy workspace. According to Safe Work Australia, work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are the primary workplace health and safety concern, impacting Australian workers significantly in terms of cost and frequency.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has also identified WMSDs as the leading cause of persistent pain conditions worldwide and the second-largest contributor to disability, with low back pain being the top cause of disability globally.

Adjust your thinking to work well EVERY day! Visit workspaceweek.org.au for hints, tips and free resources, or to consult a chiro. Remember, prevention is the most effective safeguard against workplace health issues.
