Getting here from North Melbourne
About fifteen minutes by car north-west via Flemington Road and Mount Alexander Road. Trams 57 and 59 run north out of the city, and the 58 covers the Melville Road stretch to stop 35, on the corner of Victoria Street.
The practical difference coming from North Melbourne is parking: street parking directly out front, with the opposite side of the road unrestricted at any hour.
What North Melbourne patients come in with
Desk and commute load. A heavily professional population producing neck pain, upper back tension and headache patterns.
Apartment living. Compact home workspaces, laptops on dining tables and kitchen benches, which load the neck in a very consistent way.
Hospitality and market work. Standing shifts, carrying and repeated turning around Errol Street and the Queen Victoria Market, producing lower back and shoulder presentations.
Running. Royal Park and the Moonee Ponds Creek trail, with the usual load-related knee and heel presentations.
Your first appointment
About 30 minutes, and mostly assessment: a full history, a physical assessment covering posture, movement and muscle and joint testing, an orthopaedic and neurological screen, and an explanation of what was found before any treatment happens.
Three chiropractors practise here, each publishing their AHPRA registration number. An initial consultation is $125 and a standard consultation $78, every fee and item code is on the fees page, and HICAPS is on site so private health rebates are claimed at the desk.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get here from North Melbourne?
About fifteen minutes by car north-west via Flemington Road and Mount Alexander Road. Trams 57 and 59 both run north out of the city toward the area, and the 58 covers the Melville Road stretch to stop 35.
Is parking easier there than in North Melbourne?
Considerably. There is street parking directly out front and the opposite side of Melville Road is unrestricted at any hour, which for anyone used to inner-city parking is the main practical difference.
Can I claim on my health fund?
Where your extras policy includes chiropractic, yes. HICAPS is on site so the claim goes through at the end of the appointment and you pay only the gap. Quote item code 1002 to your fund to check what your policy pays.
