Neck Pain – Chiropractor Melbourne
Waking up with a stiff neck? Struggling to look over your shoulder while driving? Or dealing with that nagging ache after a long day at the desk? Neck pain is one of the most common complaints we see—and thankfully, one of the most treatable.
At our chiropractic centre in Brunswick, we provide natural, hands-on treatment to help relieve neck pain, improve mobility and reduce the chance of it coming back. Whether it’s from posture, stress, injury or nerve irritation, we’ll help you move freely again—without relying on painkillers or injections.
Common Causes of Neck Pain
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Neck pain can develop gradually or appear suddenly, depending on what’s happening in your spine, muscles and nervous system.
We often support patients with:
- Tech neck or forward head posture
- Facet joint restriction (stiffness from poor movement)
- Whiplash or strain injuries
- Referred pain from the upper back or shoulders
- Disc bulges or nerve compression (with tingling or arm pain)
- Tension headaches caused by neck tightness
Even if your neck pain feels minor, it can build into a bigger issue over time. Early care often means faster recovery and fewer flare-ups.
Chiropractic Treatment for Neck Pain
Our chiropractors take a full-body approach. Rather than just working on the sore spot, we assess how your spine, shoulders and posture are contributing to the problem. From there, we tailor treatment to help restore balance and reduce irritation.
Your plan may include:
- Spinal adjustments to restore movement in the neck and upper back
- Soft tissue therapy to release tight muscles in the neck and shoulders
- Postural correction and ergonomic advice
- Dry needling (where appropriate) for deep muscle relief
- Shockwave therapy (if appropriate) for chronic tendon injuries, muscle tension, fascia irritation, calcific deposits, and slow bone healing, promoting natural repair and pain relief.
- Stretches and strengthening exercises to support long-term change
Our goal is to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and help you feel more in control of your body again.
Signs You Might Need Chiropractic for Neck Pain
- Pain or tightness when turning your head
- Frequent tension headaches or migraines
- Tingling or weakness in your arms or hands
- Poor posture and forward head position
- Stiffness after sleep or long hours at the computer

Dr Kenneth Taylor
A detail-oriented and deeply thoughtful chiropractor,
Thoughtful, precise, and deeply committed to his patients’ wellbeing, Dr. Kenneth Taylor brings together advanced training in functional neurology with a passion for family care, children’s health, and pregnancy support.
He holds a Master of Clinical Chiropractic (with distinction) and a Bachelor of Science from Melbourne University, with postgraduate studies in Functional Neurology at the Carrick Institute. This unique blend of scientific depth and clinical insight allows him to work confidently with complex neurological cases such as dizziness, balance issues, developmental delays, and learning difficulties.

Driven, focused, and performance-minded, Dr. Hamilton Mack brings a unique blend of chiropractic expertise and elite athletic experience to his practice. A graduate of the renowned RMIT Chiropractic program, he offers a proactive, movement-based approach to care that resonates with both high-performing athletes and everyday individuals seeking better function and vitality.
As a committed Ironman triathlete and experienced sports chiropractor, Dr. Mack has worked with AFL footballers, Formula One champions, professional dancers, and fellow triathletes.

He takes the time to educate patients, not just treat symptoms — focusing on long-term recovery and resilience.
Beyond the clinic, he lives what he teaches — training, racing, and staying active through triathlon and water polo. His firsthand understanding of movement, discipline, and recovery brings authenticity to the care he provides.
Dr Beau Billett
Relaxed, empathetic, and hands-on, Dr. Beau Billett brings a deeply personal approach to chiropractic care. After overcoming chronic knee issues in his own life, Beau developed a genuine understanding of what it feels like to be on the other side of recovery — and how much good care can make a difference.

Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain or recovering from injury, Beau’s calm, methodical style is designed to help you feel supported and empowered throughout your healing journey.
With roots in Wangaratta and now based in Brunswick, Beau’s philosophy centres on restoring function and building long-term wellbeing through a properly functioning nervous system. He’s particularly passionate about helping patients address root causes — not just symptoms — by looking at everything from movement habits to footwear and body awareness.
When he’s not in the clinic, you’ll likely find Beau outdoors hiking under the stars, exploring nature, or immersed in music and photography. A skilled guitarist, he balances his clinical precision with creative energy — making him both a dedicated practitioner and a well-rounded human.
