🧠 Treating your nervous system, not just symptoms
📍 Inner West Sydney
👇Open 7 days a week Established in the 1970’s on the main street of Five Dock, the clinic has been working hard to provide high quality care to the local residents and greater community of inner western Sydney. Soft tissue therapy (massage) is a key component of the treatment offered at our Centre, along with osteopathic/chiropractic adjustments or mobilisations. We have found that by using this style of treatment we provide a high level of care to the majority of injuries or conditions that patients present with. This combined with our longer consultations’ and individualised approach ensures that the majority of our patients are extremely satisfied not only with the result of their treatment, but also with the time frame within which their presented complaint is resolved.

We’re better together. 🤝

Last week I came across a post calling chiropractors “TEMU physiotherapists” and honestly? It’s disappointing to see healthcare professionals tearing each other down.

Let me set the record straight:
Chiropractors in Australia complete a 5-year university degree (that’s actually one year longer than physiotherapy). We’re trained in musculoskeletal assessment, diagnosis, manual therapy, exercise prescription, and rehabilitation - all underpinned by evidence-based practice and ongoing research.

But here’s the thing - this isn’t about who’s “better.”

Physios are excellent at what they do. So are osteopaths. So are chiropractors. We all bring different skills, perspectives, and approaches to patient care. And our patients benefit most when we work TOGETHER, not against each other.

The turf wars between healthcare professions need to stop. We should be collaborating, referring to each other, and focusing on what actually matters - getting people out of pain and back to doing what they love.

There’s room for all of us in healthcare. Let’s support each other instead of tearing each other down. 💪

Bony's buzzing into the long weekend like... 🐝💃

Sometimes, taking some time to rest, recharge, and enjoy yourself can be the best remedy. Whatever you're up to this long weekend, we hope you're moving in ways that make you feel good!

We are open tomorrow but closed on Monday. We'll bee back Tuesday ready to help you move better and feel better.

(Yes, Bony insisted on the bee pun. We tried to stop him. 🤷‍♂️)

One of the best perks of our job is meeting our patients' furry family members. 🐶 🐱

Pippa brought her favourite Christmas present for us to see today 🐊

Whether they're waiting patiently in reception or popping their head in to say hello, these four-legged visitors always brighten our day.

From wagging tails to curious sniffs, they remind us that health and well-being extend to the whole family.

We love that so many of you bring your loyal companions along for the visit — they're always welcome at Five Dock Osteopathic and Chiropractic Centre!

In pain but your GP can’t see you for 2 weeks?

Come straight to us.

Most people don’t know chiropractors are primary healthcare providers - meaning you don’t need a referral.

Book directly for:
• Back or neck pain
• Sports injuries
• Headaches
• Chronic pain not improving

We’ll assess you properly, treat what we can, and refer you on if needed.

Stop waiting. Start moving better.

FROM ASSISTANT TO CHIROPRACTOR: VICTORIA'S JOURNEY 🎉

If you've visited our clinic over the past year, you've likely already met Victoria – but now she's joining our team in a whole new way!

A familiar face, a new chapter

For the past 12 months, Victoria has been an integral part of our clinic as a chiropractic assistant, learning our evidence-based approach, getting to know our patients, and absorbing the collaborative culture that makes Five Dock Osteopathic and Chiropractic Centre special.

Now, having completed her chiropractic qualifications, Victoria is officially seeing patients of her own – and we couldn't be more excited!

Why this matters for our patients:
Victoria already knows how we work. She understands our commitment to evidence-based care, our multimodal treatment philosophy, and the high standard of patient support we maintain.
She's been trained in our systems and absorbed our values, and many of you have already experienced her warm, compassionate approach.

With her bachelor's degree in sports science backing her chiropractic training, Victoria has an exceptional understanding of biomechanics and movement, as well as a special interest in women's health and paediatric care.

The best part? Patients consistently tell us Victoria makes them feel genuinely heard and valued. Victoria now combines her exceptional communication skills and clinical expertise to deliver comprehensive chiropractic care.

From helping out to helping heal – Victoria's ready to support your health journey as a fully qualified chiropractor.

Congratulations, Victoria!
Watching you grow into this role has been incredible, and our patients are lucky to have you.

EXERCISE REHAB DONE RIGHT 💪

There's a huge difference between following a generic exercise program and working with someone who truly understands how your body moves and heals.

Watch Zac guide one of our patients through their rehab exercises – this is what evidence-based care looks like in action.

Why exercise rehab with a chiropractor?

✓ Deep understanding of biomechanics and movement patterns
✓ Ability to identify compensation patterns that slow recovery
✓ Hands-on assessment to ensure you're activating the right muscles
✓ Progressive loading based on your body's actual capacity
✓ Integration with manual therapy for faster results

What makes Zac's approach different:
Zac doesn't just hand you a sheet of exercises and send you on your way. He's right there, coaching proper form, adjusting resistance in real time, and making sure every rep builds strength without aggravating your injury.

His calm, supportive approach helps patients feel confident pushing themselves safely – because he knows exactly what your body can handle and how to progress you towards your goals.

The result? Patients who actually stick with their rehab program and get back to the activities they love.

This is rehab that works – guided by someone who understands the science of movement AND genuinely cares about your progress.
