Our Services

Conditions We Help With

Chiropractic care addresses the body's bones, joints, and nervous system. When nerve interference is removed, the effects often go well beyond the area we adjust.

Back Pain

Back Pain

The leading cause of workplace disability, back pain is extremely prevalent and one of the main injuries we treat at Thrive Chiropractic. Chiropractic care can address pain, stiffness, and poor range-of-motion — three of the most common symptoms experienced with back pain. Back pain can be debilitating; but it can be successfully treated with the right expertise.

Neck Pain

Neck Pain

Most neck pain is born out of work, sports, or poor posture. As we spend more time looking at our computers and phones than ever before, neck pain is only becoming more common across different age groups. Thrive Chiropractic will find the main cause of your neck and shoulder pain, manually manipulate the area to relieve pain, and provide a treatment plan that corrects misalignments.

Headaches

Headaches

Tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches are often caused by stress, poor posture, and spinal misalignment. Rather than masking the pain with medication, chiropractic care targets the root cause — restoring proper alignment to your cervical spine, relieving muscle tension, and improving blood flow so you can find lasting, drug-free relief.

Sciatica / Hip Pain

Sciatica / Hip Pain

Sciatica and hip pain can make even simple tasks like walking or sitting unbearable. These conditions often stem from nerve compression in the lower spine or pelvic misalignment. Our targeted Gonstead adjustments relieve pressure on the sciatic nerve, reduce inflammation, and restore proper mobility so you can get back to living without radiating pain.

Disc Issues

Disc Issues

Disc bulges and herniations can cause severe pain, numbness, and limited mobility. At Thrive Chiropractic, we use specific, low-force Gonstead corrections to take pressure off damaged discs and create the conditions for natural healing. Our precise approach avoids unnecessary force while delivering targeted relief to the affected spinal segments.

Sports Injuries

Sports Injuries

Whether you are a weekend warrior or a competitive athlete, sports injuries can set you back significantly. Chiropractic care accelerates recovery by restoring joint function, reducing inflammation, and improving range of motion. We also focus on injury prevention and performance optimisation to help you stay at the top of your game.

Posture & Scoliosis

Posture & Scoliosis

Poor posture and scoliosis can lead to chronic pain, fatigue, and reduced quality of life. We assess your spinal curvature thoroughly and create a tailored correction programme. Through targeted adjustments and postural guidance, we help improve alignment, reduce discomfort, and build the foundation for long-term spinal health.

Pregnancy Care

Pregnancy Care

Pregnancy places unique demands on the spine and pelvis. Our Webster-certified adjustments help maintain pelvic balance, reduce lower back pain, and support a more comfortable pregnancy at every stage. Safe and gentle, our approach is tailored specifically for expectant mothers to promote optimal foetal positioning and an easier delivery.

Paediatric Care

Paediatric Care

Children benefit from chiropractic care just as much as adults. From birth trauma to the bumps and falls of growing up, spinal misalignments can occur early. Our specialised, gentle adjustments for infants and children support healthy development, improve posture, and address common childhood issues like colic, sleep difficulties, and growing pains.

Thrive Gonstead Chiropractic

Your Health. Our Purpose.

At Thrive Gonstead Chiropractic, we believe that great health is not the absence of pain — it's the freedom to live fully. Using the world-renowned Gonstead technique, we identify and correct the root causes of spinal dysfunction so you can thrive.

The Process

Your Journey to Better Health

01

Initial Consultation

We take the time to understand you—your health history, current concerns, and goals. A thorough assessment is performed to identify what’s really going on beneath the surface.

02

X-Ray & First Adjustment

Once we’ve pinpointed the root cause, we’ll walk you through a clear report of findings so you fully understand the problem and our plan. Only when you’re comfortable and ready will we begin your first correction.

03

Standard Follow-Up

Healing takes time. Most cases require a series of adjustments to stabilise the problem area and support proper recovery. It’s rare for a single correction to undo the effects of days, months, or years of stress on the body.

04

Maintenance & Wellness

As your body improves, ongoing care and simple lifestyle guidance help you maintain your progress, prevent future issues, and continue functioning at your best.

Our Method

The Gonstead Approach

The Gonstead System is considered the gold standard in chiropractic care. Developed by Dr. Clarence Gonstead over decades of research and practice, it uses five distinct criteria to precisely identify spinal subluxations and correct only those that truly need attention.

  • Specific, targeted adjustments — no generalised "cracking"
  • Evidence-based analysis using X-ray, palpation, and instrumentation
  • Proven 70-year track record with outstanding patient outcomes

Six criteria: History Taking, Visualisation, Instrumentation, Static Palpation, Motion Palpation, and X-Ray Analysis — for the most thorough assessment in chiropractic.

I initially came in for back pain, but it turned out to be connected to so much more than I expected. I was experiencing lower back, middle back, and neck pain, with my neck feeling especially tight and heavy. After my first adjustment, I felt a significant release of tension and was finally able to sleep properly again after struggling for quite some time. What surprised me most was everything else that improved. My periods had been late and irregular, but after starting chiropractic care, they came on time and have become more regular since. I also noticed my bloating and gassiness improving, which was something I never expected from chiropractic treatment. Dr. Lucas was attentive throughout my care and always took the time to explain not only what he was doing, but also what I could do outside of my appointments to support my recovery. What stood out most was that he genuinely listened to my concerns and tailored the treatment to my needs rather than taking a one size fits all approach. The pricing is also very reasonable for the level of care provided. There was no hard selling, just thoughtful, patient-centred chiropractic care. I can’t recommend Dr. Lucas and Ruth enough. This clinic looks at the whole picture, not just the pain you walk in with.

I had been seeing Ruth’s for about a year, and while I missed her expertise while she was in Australia, I am happy that she’s back and has opened Thrive Chiropractic with Lucas! I usually get quite nervous visiting clinics, but Ruth was super patient and caring which immediately put me at ease. She took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, which led to us doing a full spine X-ray and starting a targeted treatment plan. Ever since then, my neck and low back pain I have had for 10 years managed to be helped by ruth.  She also resolved my migraines, which we discovered were originating from my spine! One of the best chiro around for sure 🥰 The Rimbayu community is incredibly lucky to have them. If you are still looking for answers to your health concerns, I wholeheartedly recommend Ruth and Lucas at Thrive!

One of the best chiropractors I have been to. They take so much time, effort and patience to fix your problem and adjust you - not the “same routine” for all, no time limit. They invest time to ensure the pain/ache u have settles in before u leave, at every session. The only thing to note is, best to consult them with an XRay and this only does good for you as your adjustments will be super accurate based on actual problems you have. I went in with major cervical spine problems and 4 sessions later, I could finally sleep at night and do my daily activities. 6 sessions later, the pain has settled from 10 to 3. Now, my husband started his sessions and I’m grateful they took time to ensure his problems are being resolved. I also got my 3 year old toddler in for a check and adjustment and Ruth was sooo patient, kind and comforting. Highly recommended Chiropractors in town - I wouldn’t write reviews otherwise.

I had issues with my right hip so I went to see Dr Lucas Chong. I was asked to get an x-ray from one of the associated clinics nearby. The X-ray taken was specifically tailored for the affected part so that Dr Chong can have a proper examination and case study later. During the examination, I could feel his passion and patience when trying to explain to me using layman terms together with the x-ray taken earlier. The explanation was very clear and he answered all my questions. He later discovered my issue on my left knee that went through TKR surgery while giving me treatment on my back and hip. After another round of x-ray and adjustment, my knee has never felt so stable post injury. And could feel my back and hip is slowly healing because of the inflammation after the adjustment. It was a very informative, educational and fruitful session. Im glad I went to see him. Ive always only trusted physio, but after this I believe in Chiropractic too.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I highly recommend this Thrive Gonstead chiropractic! I initially thought massages would solve my back and shoulder discomfort, but I also had a strange tingling sensation in my leg that gradually became worse and even affected my sleep. I reached out to the clinic, and Lucas explained that it could be related to a nerve. He was very professional, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly. During every follow-up session, he carefully checked my progress, listened to my concerns, and monitored my symptoms to make sure I was improving. I'm still undergoing treatment, but I've already noticed a significant improvement. I can sleep much better, move more comfortably, and my daily activities are no longer constantly affected by the discomfort. Thank you, Lucas, for your excellent care and support. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone experiencing similar symptoms.
