Chiropractic in Russell Lea

From early mornings along Henley Marine Drive to long hours on your feet or behind a desk — tension builds slowly until your body lets you know it’s been there all along.

We see many locals from Russell Lea and the same stories arise:

  • “My lower back tightens when I sit too long or lift too much”
  • “I’ve always just managed my posture — now it’s catching up”
  • “My neck locks up after work or driving”
  • “I don’t bounce back like I used to after exercise”
  • “I want to feel strong again — not just pain-free”

Most wait until something tips them over the edge — but the signs have usually been building:

  • Recurring tension in your neck, shoulders, or lower back
  • Sciatic pain running down the leg
  • Headaches that seem to start from the top of your spine
  • A sluggish, heavy feeling throughout your body
  • That sense your posture’s not quite right

Chiropractic care isn’t just about relief — it’s about helping your body keep up with your life.

Watch Dr Elch explain how we help patients go from frustration to freedom:

  • I had lower back pain and Mitch resolved my issue from my first session with him. From that day my back has been to 100 percent without Mitch I would have to live with the pain. Also the exercises really helped alot. So thanks Mitch.

  • I’ve had the best experience with Mihajlo (Mitch) who has helped me massively with improving my lower and upper back in the short and the long term. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for long term pain relief/recovery from an injury.

  • Staff are very friendly and welcoming at Activ Therapy Gladesville. I have found my physiotherapist Gary to be very informative and professional . He has helped my hip pain tremendously and given me exercises to continue my recovery. I have no hesitation in recommending Activ Therapy to friends and family.

  • I began seeing Mitch some three months ago. The extent of my injury was quite severe, I had extremely limited range of motion in both arms/shoulders. In my first session with him, I met a person who genuinely cared and was determined to work with me until I overcame my injury and it’s side effects. Two months on, I’ve got... read more

  • Mitch is the best chiropractor I have visited. Service is consistent, fixed my long existing back and shoulder issues for exercises. Mitch is also the best, most understanding and friendly person to just talk about any problems. Couldn’t recommend more! You have to experience yourself.

  • Mihajlo has been my chiro for around 2 years and I have been following him around to different clinics all over Sydney. He is honest, transparent and I always feel better after seeing him.

  • Worked through several injuries with Gary this year, very skilled Physio! Great pricing and availability too! Would highly recommend for anyone with acute or chronic injuries as he was able to work with both types with me!
