Headaches that start in the neck or shoulders. Dr Xander checks the musculoskeletal factors that may be contributing and explains what he finds.

Questions
Chiropractic Questions from Armadale Patients
What happens at my first appointment, and what does it cost?
Your Initial Consult is $100. Dr Xander takes a detailed history, asks what you want to get back to doing, and assesses how your spine and joints move by hand. Where it's clinically appropriate and safe, treatment can start in that same visit. You'll leave knowing what he found and what he suggests next. Follow-up visits are $75 for a Standard Appointment or $85 for an Extended Consult, which can include dry needling and rehab exercises.
Can I claim on private health or Medicare?
Private health insurance rebates depend on your fund and your level of extras cover, so it's worth checking with your fund before you come in. If your GP has put you on a Medicare Chronic Condition Management plan and referred you for chiropractic care, those visits are accepted too. You don't need a referral otherwise. If you're unsure, call reception on (08) 5115 0514 before booking.
Do chiropractic adjustments hurt?
An adjustment shouldn't be unnecessarily uncomfortable. You may feel pressure during it, and some people feel temporary soreness afterwards, a bit like after exercise. Dr Xander checks your comfort as he goes and can change his approach, using gentler techniques where that suits you better.
Will I need X-rays?
Usually not. Dr Xander assesses mainly through motion palpation, so imaging is only considered when it's needed to rule out a serious condition. If he thinks you need a scan, he'll explain why and arrange a referral.
How many visits will I need?
There's no fixed package. The number of visits depends on what's going on, how long it's been there and how your body responds, and Dr Xander rechecks your movement each time before deciding what comes next. And if your assessment suggests chiropractic care isn't the right fit, or something needs a GP or another specialist first, he'll tell you plainly and point you in the right direction.
Do you only treat backs?
No. Dr Xander has a particular interest in extremity joints, so shoulders, elbows, hands, knees and feet are all part of what he assesses and treats. His work with sporting teams, including the Royals in Albany, means he's used to people who want to get back to training, playing or simply moving comfortably.
Where are you, and is there parking?
We're at Unit 10/42 Commerce Avenue, Armadale, directly opposite Armadale train station. There's free parking at the front of the complex, and the clinic is open Monday to Saturday, including Saturday afternoons.
