Modern lifestyles are tough on our backs. Many of us spend hours sitting at desks, commuting, or staring down at phones. Others push their bodies hard through physical labour or sports. The result? Strained muscles, stiff joints, and irritated nerves — all of which can lead to persistent back pain.
Understanding the cause of your back pain is key to effective treatment. Some of the most common causes we see in our Melbourne chiropractic clinic include:
Chiropractic care focuses on restoring normal movement and function to your spine and surrounding joints. At Forward Chiropractic, we start with a detailed assessment to find the root cause of your back pain — not just treat the symptoms.
Gentle, targeted spinal adjustments help restore joint mobility, reduce inflammation, and relieve pressure on nerves. Our approach is personalised — we adjust our techniques depending on your body type, condition, and comfort.
Tight muscles and fascia can contribute to back pain. We often use myofascial release or trigger point therapy to ease muscle tension and promote circulation.
Corrective exercises strengthen weak muscles, improve posture, and prevent recurrence. We’ll guide you through stretches and mobility drills tailored to your lifestyle.
Many cases of back pain stem from daily habits. We’ll help you improve your desk setup, standing posture, and even how you lift groceries.
Back pain that lasts more than a few days or keeps returning is a sign that something isn’t right. You should see a chiropractor if you:
Early intervention often leads to quicker recovery and fewer complications.
When you visit Forward Chiropractic in Melbourne, we take the time to listen to your story. We’ll ask about your work, lifestyle, and past injuries, then perform a full musculoskeletal assessment. If we believe chiropractic care can help, you’ll receive your first treatment that day — or we may refer you for imaging if necessary.
We specialise in helping Melbourne locals stay active and pain-free. Our clinic is particularly experienced in treating cyclists, office workers, and tradies — people who push their bodies every day. We use evidence-informed techniques, provide clear communication, and build tailored care plans that work with your goals.
Our clinic in Kensington is close to North Melbourne, Ascot Vale, and Flemington, and easily accessible by public transport. We offer flexible appointment times, including early mornings and Saturdays.
While we love seeing our patients, we also want to help you stay out of the treatment room. Here are a few simple habits that go a long way:
You don’t have to live with back pain. Chiropractic care provides safe, effective relief and helps you take control of your health. At Forward Chiropractic, we’re here to support you every step of the way — from your first visit to your full recovery.
