Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on restoring nervous system function through precise spinal adjustments. We treat musculoskeletal conditions like back pain, neck pain, and headaches using evidence-based techniques that promote natural healing. Our approach combines manual adjustments with instrument-assisted methods to address vertebral subluxations that interfere with nerve function. Patients benefit from improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced overall wellbeing through our holistic treatment plans.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy uses advanced technology to relieve chronic back and neck pain caused by disc issues. The Hill DT Table creates negative pressure in spinal discs, promoting healing of bulging or herniated discs. This non-surgical treatment improves nutrient flow to damaged areas and can help patients avoid more invasive procedures. Sessions are conducted in a controlled environment with computer-guided precision for optimal safety and effectiveness.
Advanced Diagnostics
Our diagnostic services include state-of-the-art technology for precise assessment of spinal and nervous system function. sEMG scans measure muscle nerve activity while HRV testing evaluates stress response capabilities. These advanced diagnostics help identify issues before symptoms appear, allowing for proactive treatment planning and better long-term outcomes through early intervention strategies tailored to each patient's unique needs.
Pregnancy Care
Specialised chiropractic care for expectant mothers addresses pregnancy-related pain and postural changes. Our gentle techniques help maintain proper pelvic alignment, potentially improving labour outcomes. We use pregnancy-specific adjustment tables and focus on maintaining nervous system function to support both maternal comfort and foetal development throughout all stages of pregnancy, with particular attention to the physical demands of the third trimester.
Paediatric Chiropractic
Our paediatric chiropractic services address developmental and postural issues in children using gentle, age-appropriate techniques. We focus on nervous system development and musculoskeletal health from infancy through adolescence. Common concerns include birth trauma recovery, posture correction, and supporting neurological development. Our approach emphasizes early intervention to establish healthy movement patterns and prevent future musculoskeletal problems through regular wellness check-ups.

Came in months ago with severe headaches that I had for years and just didnt have the energy to work or get out of bed. Pierre helped me break that! My headaches has completely gone away and I now am able to go to work and exercise like I used to. I am now just working on my posture which I have always been so insecure about. Staff is very welcoming and friendly from day 1. Definitely recommend this place!!

It's been 3-4 months since my first visit to Better Backs in Parramatta and I definitely don't regret it! I came in with some pins and needles in my arm, along with back tightness, daily headaches and an uncomfortable posture. I can safely say that these problems don't bother me anymore! The Better Backs team are extremely efficient, helpful and an top of that friendly from your first phone call to every consultation. Stelios is great at what he does, and he takes time and care with everyone, explaining the process to you and answers any questions you have. Thanks Better Backs, you guys have definitely

I was having a few minor health issues and some lower back pain. A friend of mine referred me to Stelios at Better Backs. Stelios is very knowledgeable and explained everything in a professional and caring manner as well as all the staff at Better Backs are very professional. After my first adjustment I immediately felt better. I have now been going 3 days a week for a month now and I am 100% better. Knowing what Stelios has done so far I only wish I went to see him earlier. I highly recommend Stelios, he is amazing.

A friend of mine referred me to Stelios@BetterBacks and I can honestly say he changed my life. I knew I was in safe hands from the moment I met him. He is extremely knowledgeable and answered all my questions. It feels like I have a new back as he has aligned everything and my posture feels so nicely balanced nowadays. Throughout my journey, Stelios was able to measure progress scientifically and guide me back into fighting fit form! I highly recommend the team at Better Backs. Thanks team!

Dr Stelios advised a 3 month intensive session and i am now 2 months in. My back feels great. I suffer from migraines and I did'nt know that chiro also treats migraines. I have severe migraines which last for 2-3 days and now i have been CLEAR OF A MIGRAINE for 2 months, which is a big big thing for me. Had i known earlier i would have definitely signed up earlier. Dr Stelios is amazing, he knows the exact points and after each session i instantly feel better. This is literally the best thing tat happened in 2020 :)

A few weeks ago I went back to Better Backs Better Living. I had tried to do without chiropractic care but it became quite clear that i need it. I need help with my heart problem. I have Atrial Fibrillation. A few years ago the cardiologist did an operation and that helped but not enough.
Somtimes i had to go to the hospital to get it fixed. The treatment from Stelios has helped me a lot. My heart is working better! Since Stelios is treating me again I have had no episodes of AF. I can even sleep on my left side which was not possible because my heart would go wrong. I really need the chiropractor

I am 56 years old former office worker. I have suffered from a lower back pain, bloating and inconsistent bowel movements for a considerable time. I was diagnosed as having subluxations in the lower, middle and upper spine, with the worst of these being stage 2. It was explained to me that this is impeding/unbalancing my nervous system via the spinal cord, which has a consequential impact on my organ function. Since attending Better Backs for the past month, 3 times per week, I have noticed that my lower back pain is gone and the bloating and bowel symptoms are markedly better. My general health
