Chiropractic in Five Dock

From early gym sessions to the Great North Road rush, life in Five Dock moves quickly — and your body often pays the price before you’ve noticed the signs.

We see many locals from Five Dock and the same stories arise:

  • “My back tightens after training or long days at work”
  • “I know my posture isn’t great — especially at the desk”
  • “I’ve been meaning to get this looked at for months”
  • “My shoulders and neck get sore halfway through the week”
  • “I feel like I’m too young to be this stiff”

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:

How we’re helping people just like you from Five Dock

Many of our Five Dock patients visit our Gladesville clinic — here’s what they’ve had to say:

  • I would like to thank Mitch for helping me manage some long outstanding issues I have carried over the years. He was able to get to the crux of the matter quickly and explained to me what was happening and what I could do (routines/exercises) to improve my situation. I'm 60yo and fairly active but always carried these niggles and... read more

  • Great Physio. I saw Mitch with a few issues some going back years and a new leg problem. He not only gave me a stretch out and good "back crackin'" but also all the tools I need to continue my therapy by myself. He's not too pushy and is genuinely there to see you heal. Couldn't recommend a better physio... read more

  • 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!

  • 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.
