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:

  • Always a positive and great experience with Mihajlo(Mitch). I would highly recommend him to people who need neck and back pain treatment and help with posture and general movement health care. I am starting to feel like a 17 year old boy again and am able to play water polo again at a professional level. Thank you.

  • My experience at Active Therapy Gladesville has been a positive one. Both Mitch and Gary are very knowledgeable and professional. At 67, I'm trying to improve my all round flexibility to continue playing golf. They have provided some specific exercises to achieve that. Both guys are super friendly and I highly recommend them.

  • Visited Activ Therapy recently and had my first appointment with Mihajlo Danilovic. He is very professional, caring, knowledgable, and punctual. My back and arms are feeling so much better after only one visit. I highly recommend them.
