Movement Chiro

Movement Chiro At Movement Chiro, Dr Jess blends hands on care with movement-based rehab to improve strength, mobility, posture and overall function.

Patients often notice not only less pain but also better sleep, reduced stress and a greater sense of wellbeing. At Movement Chiro, we're dedicated to providing personalised, evidence-based chiropractic care to help you move better and live a healthier, more active life. Led by Dr Jessica Crisp, we focus on addressing the root causes of pain and discomfort, whether it's back pain, neck pain, heada

che/migraine or sports related injuries. Dr Jess emphasises the neuromuscular benefits of chiropractic care by targeting joint function, muscle activation and improved brain-body communication (proprioception). By enhancing proprioception - the body's ability to sense its position in space - she helps patients develop better balance, coordination and motor control which gives your body optimal conditions to heal, recover and perform at it's peak. Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or looking to enhance your athletic performance, Movement Chiro is here to provide a holistic approach that empowers you to move and feel your best. Let's get you moving again! Call or text 0430 030 521 to book an appointment.

Most people wait until their back flares up to do something about it…

(fair enough, we’ve all done it 😅)

But what if the goal wasn’t just getting out of pain…
What if it was also staying out of it?

Research shows that people who opt for regular maintenance care have 12.8 fewer days of back pain per year compared to those who only come in when it hurts.

That’s nearly 2 extra weeks of doing the things you love.

For me, that’s this 👆

Running around with my kids, feeling strong, moving well… and avoiding as many “Mum can’t, she’s sore” moments as possible 😅

Care shouldn’t just be about fixing problems.
It should be about keeping you living your life.

Consistency > crisis care.

🐣🌿 Belated Happy Easter everyone! 🌿🐣

Did anyone else get absolutely destroyed by Daylight Savings and Easter landing at the same time… or just me? 😴🍫

That shift in sleep (and early rising kids that don’t understand what a “sleep in” is) plus a busy long weekend can be enough to throw your system off — think headaches, neck tension, low energy, and just not feeling quite right.

Your body loves consistency, and even small changes to sleep can impact how you move and feel day-to-day.

If you’re noticing headaches or feeling a bit off this week, it might be time for a reset. We’re here to help you get things moving (and sleeping) better again.

A little behind-the-scenes of my new treatment room at Hawthorn Medical and Wellness Hub (HMWH) .com.au ✨

I’m incredibly grateful and excited to now be working within a medical clinic. Being part of a broader healthcare environment feels like a natural next step and aligns so closely with how I care for my patients.

The new space is still in the same shopping centre, just a short walk from the gym, so it’s just as easy to fit your care in around training.

I’m really looking forward to welcoming you into this new space and continuing to support your movement and health here at Movement Chiro 💛

Happy New Year, Everyone!

Looking forward to hearing your New Years resolutions 💪

For me this year, it’s going to be all about consistency. I’ve learned that long-term change comes from what you do repeatedly, not occasionally. (Easier said than done though, right?)

What’s YOUR focus for 2026?

Rounded shoulders? Try these doorframe stretches! 🙆‍♀️

1. Pec Major Stretch
Place your forearms and elbows on the doorframe, with your elbows bent at a 90-degree angle and at shoulder height (the “scarecrow” position).
Gently lean your body through the doorway.
*if you experience lower back pain, have the feet staggered (one foot forward).
Hold for 20-30 seconds.
Repeat 2-3 times, daily.

2. Pec Minor Stretch
Similar to Pec Major but the elbow is positioned 30-45 degrees above shoulder height.

3. Anterior Deltoid Stretch
Similar to Pec Major but turn your body 45 degrees away.

As always, speak to your health care practitioner before trying anything new!

📢EXCITING NEWS📣

Movement Chiro is MOVING! 👣

We’re relocating from the gym space to a medical clinic — still within the same shopping centre for your convenience.

This move allows me to work alongside a wonderful medical and wellness team in a purpose-built health environment, while still staying closely connected with the gym and the active rehab approach that’s core to Movement Chiro.

New Location: Hawthorn Medical and Wellness Hub

Starting: Saturday 27th December, 2025.

Use It or Lose It!
(Private Health Insurance and Medicare GP Chronic Condition Management Plans).

Did you know many private health insurance extras reset at year’s end? If yours do, now’s the perfect time to book your Chiro before your benefits expire.

If you’re on a GP chronic condition management plan, you’re entitled to 5 allied health visits per calendar year — with another 5 available in 2026 if you still qualify.

Make the most of what’s left of 2025!

If you’re curious about how we can train the brain out of pain 🧠✨, have a listen to The Adjusted Reality Podcast featuring Dr Heidi Haavik.

She dives into the neurophysiology behind pain and breaks down how simple, everyday habits can rewire the brain — think quality sleep, meditation, reducing stress, and of course, the role chiropractic adjustments play in helping your nervous system function at its best.

It’s such an accessible, evidence-informed conversation that I highly recommend for anyone wanting to better understand their body, their brain, and their health.

🎧 Give it a listen and let me know your thoughts!
