A NOTE FOR PARENTS

">You know your child best. We listen first.

Most first appointments begin with your story—what you noticed, what worries you and what your child is comfortable with. We then assess gently, explain what we find and agree on next steps together.

QUESTIONS PARENTS ASK

Know what happens before you arrive.

Does my child need a GP referral?

No referral is required for a private chiropractic appointment. Some Medicare or third-party funding pathways may require appropriate paperwork.

Will treatment happen at the first appointment?

Treatment is considered only after the history and assessment. If clinically appropriate, the chiropractor will explain the proposed approach and seek consent first.

What if my child is nervous?

Please tell us. The visit can be slowed down, adapted or limited to conversation and observation. Nothing should proceed without appropriate consent and cooperation.

Does my child need X-rays or scans?

Imaging is not routinely required. Further investigation is recommended only when clinically indicated.

Can I claim through private health insurance?

Eligible chiropractic services can generally be claimed through HICAPS. Rebates depend on your fund and cover.
