What We Offer at Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic
At our Geelong clinic, we offer tailored chiropractic care for a wide range of conditions from everyday tension and tech neck to sciatica, TMJ, and chronic fatigue.
Below, you'll find the specific services we offer and how we can help you feel better, faster.
Spinal Adjustments
Whether you're feeling stiff, sore, or just a bit “out of whack,” spinal adjustments are one of the most effective ways to get your body moving and feeling better. At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we use gentle, hands-on techniques to help realign your spine, ease pressure on the nervous system, and support your body’s natural healing process.
Our adjustments are tailored to you — whether it’s a traditional manual technique or a more subtle approach. The goal is always the same: restore function, reduce pain, and help you move better.
Soft Tissue & Chiropractic
Muscle tension, knots, and trigger points can be just as limiting as joint issues and often, they go hand in hand.
That’s why soft tissue work is a key part of the way we treat at Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic.
By releasing tight muscles and fascia, we can help restore proper movement, reduce pain, and improve the effectiveness of your adjustments.
Whether it’s targeted pressure work, stretching techniques, or myofascial release, we tailor your care to what your body needs on the day.
It’s chiropractic, but more complete.
Migraine Relief
If you’re someone who suffers from migraines, you know they’re more than just headaches.
The light sensitivity, nausea, and throbbing pain can take you out of action for days and often without much warning.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we take a neurological approach to migraines.
By relieving tension in the neck and upper spine, and improving how your nervous system functions, many patients find their migraines become less intense, less frequent, or stop altogether.
We’ll take the time to understand your triggers, assess your posture and stress load, and build a care plan to help calm the system down.
Headache Relief
Not all headaches are the same and not all of them start in your head.
Tension in the neck, poor posture, jaw clenching, or nervous system overload can all play a part.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we focus on getting to the root cause.
By assessing your spine, nervous system, and daily habits, we can help relieve the underlying tension and restore balance.
Whether your headaches are occasional or a daily frustration, we’ll work with you to ease the pressure and reduce the frequency.
Often, just a few targeted adjustments can make a big difference.
Neck Pain Chiropractic Adjustments
Stiff, sore, or tight through the neck? Whether it’s from sleeping funny, long hours at the desk, or an old injury flaring up neck pain is one of the most common reasons people come to see us.
Our approach is simple: we assess what’s going on, figure out what’s driving the discomfort, and adjust accordingly.
Using gentle chiropractic techniques, we work to restore proper movement, ease pressure on the joints and nerves, and help your neck move more freely again.
Many patients report relief after just one session, especially when their body hasn’t been moving well for a while.
Lower Back Pain Relief Treatment
Lower back pain can creep in slowly or hit all at once.
Either way, it can make everyday things like sitting, standing, or bending a real challenge.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic in Geelong, we take a hands-on approach to back pain.
We’ll assess your spine, posture, and movement patterns to figure out what’s causing the issue, then use targeted chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue release, and nerve-based techniques to help get things moving again.
Whether it’s from long-term strain, a sudden tweak, or something in between
we’re here to help your back feel better and stay better.
Sciatic Nerve Decompression
That sharp, shooting pain down the leg?
That can be the sciatic nerve being compressed.
Sometimes by tight muscles, inflammation, or disc pressure in the lower spine.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we identify the cause of your sciatica and relieving it at the source.
Through specific spinal adjustments, nerve based care, and soft tissue release, we aim to reduce irritation on the sciatic nerve and restore proper movement through the hips, pelvis, and low back.
If you’ve been putting up with numbness, tingling, or burning pain then we’re here to help you move forward without it.
Chiropractic Posture Correction
Slouching at the desk, forward head posture, tight shoulders… it all adds up.
And while posture issues might seem like a cosmetic concern, they’re often behind chronic pain, fatigue, and long-term spinal stress.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we help you improve posture by addressing the structural and neurological reasons behind poor alignment. We use gentle adjustments, muscle balancing techniques, and simple take-home advice to help your body hold itself better, not just look straighter.
Better posture means better movement, fewer flare-ups, and more energy throughout the day.
Headache & Migraine Management
Whether it’s a dull daily headache or a full-blown migraine that knocks you flat, we take it seriously and we know how to help.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we approach headaches and migraines from a neurological and structural perspective.
Tight neck muscles, restricted spinal joints, and nerve sensitivity are common triggers we address using gentle adjustments, soft tissue work, and nervous system-focused care.
You don’t need to rely on painkillers long-term.
With the right care plan, many patients report fewer episodes, shorter duration, and far less disruption to daily life.
Pregnancy-Safe Chiropractic Care
Pregnancy puts your body through a lot.
Changing posture, shifting weight, and new pressures on your spine, hips, and pelvis.
The good news? Chiropractic care can be a gentle, natural way to ease those changes.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we offer pregnancy safe adjustments that are tailored to each stage of your journey.
Whether you're dealing with lower back pain, pelvic tension, sciatica, or just want to move more comfortably, we’ve got you.
All techniques are modified to be safe and comfortable, with special attention to your growing bump and changing body.
Gentle chiropractic care for seniors
As we age, movement can become stiffer, balance a bit less stable, and aches more persistent.
But that doesn’t mean you just have to “put up with it.”
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we offer gentle, tailored care for older adults.
Whether it's managing arthritis, improving mobility, reducing falls risk, or simply staying active and independent our approach is safe, respectful, and aligned with your goals.
We take the time to understand your health history, work with any existing conditions, and adjust our techniques to suit your comfort level.
Chiropractic treatment for scoliosis
Scoliosis isn’t just about posture it can lead to chronic pain, reduced mobility, and stress on the nervous system if left unaddressed.
Whether it’s a long-standing curve or a recent diagnosis, we can help.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we provide care that supports better spinal alignment, reduces muscular imbalance, and helps relieve pressure on the joints and nerves.
Our treatment plans are gentle, adaptive, and always based on your individual needs and goals.
We also work alongside other health professionals if further support or imaging is needed.
TMJ Dysfunction Chiropractic Therapy
Jaw pain, clicking, clenching, or headaches around the temples?
It could be coming from the temporomandibular joint also known as the TMJ.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we take a full-body approach to TMJ dysfunction.
By improving neck and jaw alignment, reducing muscle tension, and relieving pressure on the nerves in the area, we can often ease the strain that causes pain, tightness, and grinding.
If you’ve been told to “just wear a night guard,” but you’re still dealing with tension or jaw discomfort we’re here to help correct the underlying issue.
Chiropractic Support for Vertigo & Dizziness
Feeling light-headed, off balance, or like the room is spinning?
Vertigo and dizziness can be incredibly disruptive and often they’re linked to issues in the upper neck or inner ear.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we assess how your neck, nervous system, and vestibular system are working together.
In many cases, dysfunction in the upper cervical spine can interfere with balance signals, creating that dizzy or unsteady feeling.
Using gentle, specific adjustments and neurological techniques, we work to restore clearer communication between your brain and body, helping you feel more grounded and stable.
Shoulder & Upper Back Tension Release
That tight, knotty feeling across your shoulders and upper back?
It’s common. Especially with desk work, stress, and long hours behind the wheel.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we focus on releasing the tension where it starts.
Whether it’s poor posture, restricted movement in the spine, or overactive muscles, we use targeted adjustments and soft tissue techniques to help unwind the area and restore natural movement.
Many patients feel a noticeable difference after just one visit, lighter, looser, and more upright.
Chiropractic Care for Athletes
Whether you’re lifting, running, training, or just playing hard your body takes hits.
Even when you’re moving well.
Small imbalances or restrictions can lead to tightness, compensation, or injury over time.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we help athletes stay mobile, recover faster, and perform at their best.
Through spinal and joint adjustments, soft tissue release, and nervous system support, we work with your body to reduce strain, speed up recovery, and improve coordination.
Whether you’re in pre-season prep or coming off an injury, we’ll tailor your care to your training goals.
Functional neurology for chronic fatigue
If you’re feeling constantly drained, foggy, or like your battery never quite charges there’s a good chance your nervous system is stuck in a stress loop.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we take a functional neurology approach to chronic fatigue.
That means we look at how your brain and body are communicating, how your spine and nervous system are regulating energy, and what adjustments can help restore balance.
This isn’t about quick fixes.
It’s about creating a care plan that supports long-term recovery, better resilience, and a body that doesn't feel like it's always running on empty.
Chiropractic support for anxiety and stress
Stress isn’t just in your head it lives in your body.
Tight shoulders, shallow breathing, racing thoughts, poor sleep… it all adds up.
And your nervous system feels it.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we help calm the system down.
Our focus is on improving how your spine and nervous system function, so your body can shift out of “fight or flight” and back into a more balanced, restful state.
Gentle adjustments and nervous system-based care may help reduce tension, improve sleep, and support a more grounded mental state.
Especially when paired with healthy lifestyle changes.
Postural stress assessment
Sore neck after work?
Tight shoulders that just won’t let go? Low back tension by the end of the day?
These are all signs your posture might be working against you.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we offer detailed postural stress assessments to pinpoint where your body’s under strain whether from desk work, lifting, standing, or simply long-term habits.
We look at your alignment, spinal motion, muscle balance, and nervous system function to find what needs support.
From there, we create a care plan to help you move better, sit easier, and feel less tension day-to-day.
Chiropractic help for tech neck
Scrolling, tapping, slouching
Modern life is rough on your neck. “Tech neck” is the forward head posture and upper back strain that comes from hours on devices… and it’s one of the most common things we see in clinic.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we assess how screen time is affecting your spine, posture, and nervous system. Through targeted adjustments, soft tissue release, and posture correction strategies, we help relieve tension and retrain your body to move more naturally again.
It’s not about ditching the screens it’s about helping your body handle them better.
First visit spinal health assessment
Not sure what to expect at your first visit?
No stress we’ll walk you through everything step by step.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, your first appointment starts with a proper conversation.
We’ll take a full history, assess your posture, spine, and nervous system, and run through any relevant orthopedic or neurological tests. It’s all about understanding what’s going on and what you actually need.
If we feel like X-rays or referrals are necessary, we’ll talk about it.
But most of the time, treatment starts on day one.
Customised chiropractic treatment plans
No two bodies are the same so why should your treatment plan be?
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we don’t do cookie cutter care.
Every plan we create is based on your history, your goals, and how your body responds over time. Some people need just a handful of visits. Others benefit from more structured, ongoing support.
We’ll map out a plan that makes sense for you whether that’s resolving pain, improving function, or staying well long-term. You’re always in the driver’s seat, and nothing is locked in.
Trigger Point Therapy for Muscle Tightness
Tight, knotty muscles that just won’t let go?
You might be dealing with trigger points those small, hyper-irritable spots in your muscles that cause pain, tension, or even referral into other areas.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we combine trigger point therapy with chiropractic care to help release these tight spots and restore proper muscle function. By targeting the source of the tension, we can help relieve stiffness, improve range of motion, and reduce pain — fast.
This works especially well alongside spinal adjustments and soft tissue work.
Gentle Adjustments for Disc Bulges
Disc bulges can cause sharp pain, nerve irritation, and a whole lot of frustration especially if they’re pressing on the sciatic nerve or affecting your mobility.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we take a gentle, targeted approach to disc issues.
Using safe techniques that reduce pressure on the spine and support your nervous system, we aim to create space, calm inflammation, and help the area recover.
No cracking or twisting if it’s not right for you just careful care tailored to your body.
If you’ve been told surgery is your only option, it might be worth getting a second opinion.
Chiropractic alignment after car accident
Even a small car accident can leave your body feeling out of alignment neck pain, headaches, tightness, or lingering discomfort that shows up days or weeks later.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we’re experienced in helping people recover after car accidents.
We focus on restoring proper alignment, reducing inflammation, and calming the nervous system so your body can heal and function at its best.
Whether it’s whiplash, back pain, or general tension, we tailor your care based on your injuries and how your body’s responding.
The sooner we assess things, the better the outcome tends to be.
Chiropractic plan for frozen shoulder
Frozen shoulder or adhesive capsulitis can feel like your arm is locked up, stiff, and painfully limited. It’s frustrating, slow to heal, and often disrupts sleep, work, and daily life.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we create personalised plans to help restore mobility, reduce pain, and get your shoulder functioning again.
This often involves gentle spinal and shoulder adjustments, soft tissue work, and movement strategies that support healing without overloading the joint.
Progress with frozen shoulder takes time but with the right care, you don’t have to just wait it out.
Ongoing wellness care adjustments
Once the pain is gone, then what?
For many of our patients, chiropractic becomes part of their routine to stay well not just get well.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, ongoing wellness care means regular check-ins, minor tune-ups, and adjustments that help your body keep functioning at its best. Whether you're managing stress, training hard, working long hours, or just want to prevent issues from creeping back in, we tailor your care to support your goals.
It’s not about coming forever. It’s about staying ahead of the problem.
Chiropractic for desk workers
Hours at a desk can take a serious toll sore neck, tight shoulders, low back tension, and posture that slowly slides downhill.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we work with a lot of desk-bound professionals. Our goal is to keep your spine moving, reduce tension, and help undo the daily wear and tear that comes with modern work life. Through gentle adjustments, soft tissue release, and posture guidance, we’ll help you feel looser, taller, and more comfortable at your desk — or away from it.
You don’t need to accept stiffness as normal.
Chronic disease support with chiropractic
Living with a chronic condition can be exhausting not just physically, but mentally and emotionally too.
While chiropractic care doesn’t treat chronic diseases directly, it can offer powerful support by improving how your body functions day to day.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we focus on restoring balance to the nervous system, reducing physical tension, and supporting better movement so your body can cope more effectively with stress, inflammation, and fatigue.
Many people living with conditions like fibromyalgia, autoimmune issues, or chronic fatigue find they feel clearer, lighter, and more in control with regular care.
We meet you where you’re at and work with your broader care team if needed.
Nervous system-focused chiropractic care
Your nervous system runs the show every muscle, organ, and movement is controlled by signals flowing through your spine and brain.
When that communication gets disrupted, pain, dysfunction, and fatigue often follow.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we focus on restoring that connection.
Our care is built around supporting how your nervous system functions not just cracking stiff joints.
Through specific, neurologically-informed adjustments, we aim to help your body self-regulate, adapt to stress, and heal more efficiently.
This approach is gentle, precise, and tailored to your unique needs whether you’re dealing with pain or just want to function at your best.
Chiropractic help with sleep and recovery
Struggling to wind down?
Waking up stiff or unrested? Quality sleep and proper recovery are crucial but when your nervous system is on edge, it’s hard to switch off and truly recharge.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we help restore calm and balance to your system.
Gentle adjustments reduce tension in the spine, ease pressure on nerves, and support the body’s natural rhythms helping you relax more easily and wake up feeling less foggy or sore.
It’s not a magic fix, but when your body’s aligned and your nervous system is working properly, better sleep often follows.
Manual spinal adjustment
A manual spinal adjustment is one of the most well known chiropractic techniques and for good reason.
It’s a hands on, precise movement designed to restore proper motion to a restricted spinal joint.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we use manual adjustments when appropriate to help relieve pressure on nerves, reduce pain, and improve how your spine moves and functions.
You might hear a pop or click that’s just gas releasing from the joint but the real goal is restoring better balance and communication within the body.
It’s fast, effective, and tailored to your comfort level. Always.
Activator technique for gentle care
Not all chiropractic care involves twisting or cracking.
The Activator Method is a gentle, instrument-assisted technique that delivers a quick, targeted impulse to help restore motion in specific joints without forceful movement.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we use the Activator technique for patients who prefer a more subtle approach, as well as for kids, seniors, or those recovering from injury.
It’s safe, precise, and backed by decades of clinical use.
You’ll feel the difference not just in how it’s done, but in how your body responds.
Dry needling
Tight, overworked muscles can hold tension deep beneath the surface and sometimes they need more than hands on pressure to fully release.
Dry needling is a targeted technique that uses fine, sterile needles to stimulate trigger points in muscles.
It helps reduce tension, improve blood flow, and encourage faster recovery from strain or overuse.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we may incorporate dry needling as part of your treatment plan when muscle tightness is a key factor in your pain or movement issues.
It’s not acupuncture it’s a modern, evidence-based approach to muscular health.
X-ray referrals and interpretation
Sometimes, getting the full picture means going a little deeper and that’s where imaging comes in.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we don’t guess.
If your case requires it, we can refer you for spinal X-rays or other imaging to better understand what’s going on beneath the surface.
Once we’ve got the results, we’ll walk you through exactly what they show no jargon, no pressure.
This helps us create a more precise, personalised treatment plan and gives you confidence in the process.
Chiropractic for jaw clenching (bruxism)
Waking up with a tight jaw?
Noticing wear on your teeth? Clenching and grinding often linked to stress can create real strain in your jaw, neck, and even your upper back.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we look at how jaw tension connects with spinal alignment and the nervous system.
By easing pressure in the neck, releasing tight muscles, and improving alignment in the jaw and upper cervical spine, we can often reduce the tension that leads to bruxism.
If a night guard isn’t solving the problem, this could be the missing piece.
Muscle balancing for better alignment
Adjustments are important but if the muscles pulling on your spine are imbalanced, the same issues can keep coming back.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we focus on more than just the joints.
Muscle balancing involves assessing which muscles are tight, weak, or overactive, then using specific techniques to restore symmetry and support healthy movement.
This may include soft tissue release, stretching, strengthening, or neurological rehab strategies.
The result? Adjustments hold better, posture improves, and your body works more efficiently overall.
Chiropractic support for chronic inflammation
Chronic inflammation can quietly impact everything from joint pain and fatigue to brain fog and gut health.
While it’s often driven by lifestyle, stress, and immune activity, your nervous system plays a big role too.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we focus on calming the system from the inside out.
Gentle adjustments help improve spinal function and reduce physical stress, which may support your body’s ability to regulate inflammation more effectively.
It’s not a cure-all but it can be a powerful part of your long-term wellness strategy.
Chiropractic for growing teenagers
Teenage bodies are growing fast and with sport, study, screen time, and hormonal changes, that growth isn’t always smooth.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we help teenagers stay balanced and mobile through these big developmental years. Whether it’s posture issues, sports injuries, headaches, or back pain from school bags and screen time, chiropractic care can support proper alignment and nervous system function as their bodies adapt and mature.
It’s gentle, age-appropriate care and often, teens feel the benefits right away.
Chiropractic education and lifestyle coaching
Real change doesn’t just happen on the table it happens in the way you move, sit, sleep, and manage stress every day.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we don’t just adjust your spine we teach you how to take better care of it. From posture tips and movement strategies to sleep setups, breathing, and stress management, we offer practical advice you can actually use.
Our goal is simple: help you understand your body better so you can stay well, long after you leave the clinic.
Chiropractic care for tradies and laborers
Hard work takes a toll.
Long days on the tools, heavy lifting, awkward angles it all adds up to tight muscles, sore backs, and worn down joints.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we work with Geelong tradies and laborers to keep their bodies in shape for the work they do.
Whether it’s early-morning stiffness, low back pain, shoulder tension, or nerve-related issues like sciatica, we tailor care that helps you recover faster, move better, and keep going strong.
You rely on your body for your job we’re here to help you take care of it.
Spinal mobility improvement therapy
Feeling stiff or locked up through your back or neck?
Limited spinal mobility can affect how you move, breathe, sleep, and feel and it often builds up slowly over time.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we focus on restoring healthy spinal movement through specific adjustments, soft tissue release, and movement strategies tailored to your body.
Improving spinal mobility not only helps reduce pain and tension, but also improves posture, energy, and overall function.
It’s not about forcing things it’s about getting your spine moving the way it’s meant to.
Hands-on spinal mobilisation
Not every spine needs a quick adjustment.
Sometimes, restoring movement requires a more gradual, hands on approach.
Spinal mobilisation is a gentle technique that involves slow, controlled movements of the joints to reduce stiffness, improve range of motion, and ease tension.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we use mobilisation techniques for patients who prefer low-force care, are recovering from injury, or simply need a softer touch.
It’s precise, effective, and ideal for anyone wanting a calm, focused way to get things moving again.
Family chiropractic packages
Looking after your spine is easier when the whole family’s on board.
Whether it’s parents, kids, or grandparents chiropractic care can support better movement, recovery, and wellbeing at every stage of life.
At Latrobe Terrace Chiropractic, we offer flexible family care options for Geelong locals who want to stay proactive with their health.
Our packages are designed to make regular care more affordable and accessible for families who want to feel their best together.
We’ll work with your crew’s needs, routines, and goals no pressure, just smart, tailored care.
