My Chiropractic Place has been the Richmond chiropractors of choice for patients across Melbourne’s inner east since 2005. Our clinic uses the Gonstead Chiropractic technique, one of the most specific and thorough approaches in chiropractic practice, to assess and address the underlying cause of your pain. Whether you’re dealing with back pain, a stiff neck, headaches, or something you’ve been putting up with for years, you’re in the right place.

Our Richmond chiropractors use the Gonstead technique to assess a wide range of musculoskeletal and nervous system conditions. Here’s a look at what we commonly see and manage in the clinic.
Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people walk through our door — often after months of trying to manage it on their own. When sciatic nerve pain is involved, that sharp, shooting discomfort down the leg can make daily life genuinely difficult.
The Gonstead assessment pinpoints the specific lumbar spinal levels contributing to your pain. Getting that right matters. Generic care aimed at the general area often misses the mark entirely.
If your headaches seem to start at the base of your skull and creep forward, your cervical spine may be involved. Cervicogenic headaches — caused by joint and nerve irritation in the neck are often misidentified and poorly managed.
Targeted Gonstead adjustments to the cervical spine can help address the underlying source of neck tension and referred head pain, rather than simply managing symptoms.
Your spine goes through a lot during pregnancy. As your centre of gravity shifts and your ligaments loosen, spinal discomfort is common and often dismissed as just part of the process. Chiropractic care during pregnancy uses gentle, modified techniques suited to each stage, focused on supporting spinal comfort and pelvic alignment.
For children, conditions like torticollis — where the neck muscles cause the head to tilt or rotate — respond well to early, careful chiropractic assessment. All paediatric care at My Chiropractic Place uses age-appropriate, gentle techniques.

Whiplash from a car accident can leave lasting spinal and soft tissue damage that isn’t always visible on standard imaging. Early, specific chiropractic assessment can be an important part of recovery — helping restore joint mobility and reduce referred pain patterns before they become chronic.
Scoliosis management depends heavily on the individual — the degree of curvature, age, and symptoms all shape the approach. Our Richmond chiropractors assess each case carefully and discuss realistic expectations with you from the start.
Chiropractic care isn’t limited to the spine. Shoulder impingement, knee pain, ankle instability, and wrist issues — including Carpal Tunnel Syndrome — can all involve joint and nerve dysfunction that responds to careful chiropractic assessment and care.

Your first visit starts with a thorough health history. We want to understand your problem properly — when it started, what makes it worse, and what you’ve already tried. From there, your chiropractor performs a full Gonstead spinal analysis: postural assessment, spinal palpation, and nervoscope instrumentation. If X-rays are clinically indicated, we’ll explain why and what we’re looking for.
No rushing. No assumptions. Every patient is assessed as an individual.
After your assessment, your chiropractor explains their findings clearly. You’ll understand what’s going on and why.
Some patients want relief from their immediate symptoms and nothing more. Others want to work toward fuller recovery. Some choose to continue with periodic maintenance care. There are no pre-paid treatment plans at My Chiropractic Place, and no pressure to commit to a programme you’re not sure about. Your care is always your decision.
Where clinically appropriate, your first Gonstead adjustment may take place on the same visit. It’s specific, precise, and directed at the exact spinal level identified in your assessment — not a general adjustment to the area that’s sore. Most patients are surprised by how targeted it is.
