Your First Chiropractic Visit | What Happens & How It Helps
At Flynn Chiro, your first chiropractic visit in Melbourne is designed to be clear, comfortable, and focused on your unique needs.
The appointment begins with a detailed consultation and assessment to understand your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle factors. This thorough approach allows for an accurate diagnosis and a clear explanation of what’s causing your discomfort.
Following the assessment, a custom care plan is developed—whether you’re dealing with long-standing back pain, a sports injury, or postural tension. Every treatment plan is built around your goals and adjusted as needed.
This initial chiropractor consultation in Melbourne also includes practical advice on movement, posture, and ongoing care to support your recovery between visits.
Posture Correction in Melbourne | Align Your Spine, Improve Your Life
Modern life places constant strain on the spine, especially for office workers, students, and those spending long hours on screens. Poor posture doesn’t just affect how you look; it can lead to chronic discomfort, reduced mobility, and long-term musculoskeletal issues.
At Flynn Chiro, posture correction in Melbourne is approached with care and precision. Whether you’re struggling with tech neck, slouched shoulders, or the effects of scoliosis, tailored treatment can help improve alignment and restore balance.
Practical ergonomic advice is also offered, supporting students, remote workers, and anyone spending extended time at a desk. Adjustments are combined with posture exercises and lifestyle recommendations to ensure sustainable results.
If you’re looking for a trusted posture chiropractor in Melbourne, Flynn Chiro offers a thorough, results-focused approach that fits into everyday life.

I have been seeing Flynn fortnightly for a few issues that have crept up from to my work, scoliosis and dancing. Flynn is very professional and curious about any conditions and his treatment is thorough. With a thorough health assessment and explanation in my first treatment we were off to a great start. Then we have continued with deep tissue techniques as well as spine work I enjoy the treatment as it’s very consultative. I have had great results already and a solid plan for getting me back to maintenance. Thank you Flynn.

Flynn was recommended to me when I was searching for a new chiropractor after being unsatisfied with the one I was seeing at another practice. I had some physical ailments and am quite active but didn’t realise the additional stressors I was placing on my body with the mental pressures I was experiencing with work and study. Whilst chiropractic treatments generally address physicality only; I appreciate the holistic view that Flynn brings to his treatments. He considers all elements of what it is to be human before treatment. I’m grateful that I was recommended Flynn way back then and I can highly recommend him to others also.

I’ve been receiving chiropractic care from Flynn for several years. Flynn has always been attentive and addressed my health needs, as opposed to simply following the same care routine on repeat. He is engaging, consistently demonstrates a genuine desire to understand his patient, and he gently provides information to encourage maintaining a healthy lifestyle
See for yourself some positive feedback shared from my existing patients. I’m very lucky to be able to come to work and play a role in improving the health and happiness of this wonderful, diverse group of people.

Putting the Care into Health Care
At other clinics you might be seen as just a number, or the Doctor or practitioner barely remembers anything about you. I strive to understand the person before us, not just the condition. Getting to know you and your history, your lifestyle, your family – the real you – helps me give the best treatment and advice possible.
Frequently asked questions
What is a chiropractor?
A chiropractor in Australia is a 5 year university educated primary health care practitioner, registered and regulated by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Other practitioners regulated by AHPRA are doctors, nurses, physios and more.
So, what does this really mean?
Firstly, as a primary health care practitioner, you don’t need a referral from your GP or a specialist to see a chiropractor. Chiropractors have extensive training in the diagnosis of neuromusculoskeletal (nerve/muscle/bone/joint) problems and can be your first person to speak to when you have a problem. Chiropractors can refer for medical imaging like X-rays, ultrasounds or MRIs when required, or refer you to the appropriate practitioner if they feel you’ll be best helped elsewhere.
What does a first visit look like?
During a first visit, it’s a lot of talking and testing, and the direction the appointment goes in depends a lot on your current condition and history. Taking a full history is extremely important, and allows your chiropractor to more accurately diagnose your problem. The more useful information you can provide, the more specific and effective your treatment will be. Testing might involve observing your posture and movement, the strength of your joints and muscles, the sensation in your nerves or your reflexes – it all depends on what you’re seeking help for.
Why are you asking about one area when my problem is elsewhere?
Chiropractors, like all health care professionals, have a range of different treatments at their disposal. There’s no one magic pill for every problem. Soft tissues (muscles/tendons/fascia) require different treatments to joints. Some treatments are very gentle, some are a bit more forceful. Some chiropractors use hand held tools to assist, or special areas of their treatment table to provide a drop or extra resistance. Everyone is a bit different.
As for me, I do prefer to use both hands-on adjustments (the joint cracking you might have seen or heard of) and various soft tissue techniques. I have a huge variety of different skills and vast experience. For patients who know what has worked in the past – let me know and I can likely perform something similar. For new patients who are a bit apprehensive or unsure – I’ll always explain everything before I actually do it, and can offer multiple options if something isn’t comfortable.
Generally speaking, the adjustments are NOT painful, the soft tissue can be. I’ll never do anything beyond what you can tolerate, and your consent to treatment is extremely important.
