What Is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care is a natural and non-invasive approach to health that focuses on restoring proper function to the spine and nervous system. When your spine is moving and functioning as it should, your body can perform and heal more effectively.
Our chiropractors are trained to assess and gently correct spinal imbalances using safe and precise adjustments. These adjustments help reduce pain, improve mobility, and support nervous system health.
Conditions we commonly support include:
Lower back pain
Neck and shoulder pain
Sciatica
Headaches and migraines
Joint stiffness and reduced mobility
Postural imbalances
Many of our veteran clients report improvements not only in their physical symptoms but also in sleep quality, energy levels, and mood. Chiropractic care supports the body’s natural ability to adapt and recover — a key asset for those who have experienced physical and mental stress during their service.

What to Expect
If you’re a DVA client seeking chiropractic care, the first step is to speak with your GP. With a referral, DVA Health Cards (Gold and White) are accepted as payment for chiropractic services.
Here’s what to expect at Be Amazing Chiropractic:
1. Referral from Your GP:
A GP referral is required to access DVA-funded chiropractic services. Once you have the referral, you can contact us to schedule your initial visit.
2. Initial Consultation:
We’ll take the time to understand your health history, current concerns, and goals. This includes physical examinations, posture and movement assessments, and a neurological evaluation.
3. Personalised Care Plan:
Based on your assessment, we’ll recommend a care plan tailored to your needs. This may include spinal adjustments, postural retraining, and home care strategies.
4. Ongoing Support:
Veterans often benefit from regular check-ins and care sessions to maintain progress and adapt to life’s physical demands.

Common Conditions We See in Veterans
Our practice frequently works with veterans experiencing a range of musculoskeletal concerns. Some of the most common include:
Lower Back Pain:
A very common issue among veterans, often due to years of physical work, load carrying, or prolonged sitting during deployments or desk duties.
Neck and Shoulder Pain:
May stem from postural strain, past injuries, or repetitive movement patterns. We address alignment and muscle tension to restore comfort.
Sciatica and Nerve Pain:
When the sciatic nerve is irritated, it can cause pain radiating from the lower back into the leg. Chiropractic adjustments help restore spinal balance and reduce nerve tension.
Postural Issues:
Heavy packs, training, and extended periods of standing or sitting can all lead to postural stress. We assess alignment and provide strategies to improve posture.
Joint Stiffness and Reduced Mobility:
Whether from age, arthritis, or service-related wear and tear, joint stiffness can affect day-to-day function. Our care focuses on restoring movement and improving quality of life.
Headaches and Migraines:
Tension-type headaches and cervicogenic migraines are common in individuals with neck and upper spine issues. Chiropractic care may reduce the frequency and severity of these headaches.
Stress-Related Tension:
Physical symptoms often have an emotional component. We recognise how PTSD, anxiety, and sleep disturbances can contribute to tension, pain, and imbalance.
