Why Black Rock Residents Choose a Gonstead Chiro
The Gonstead system is considered the gold standard of hands-on chiropractic work, and very few clinics in Bayside are certified in it. Here’s what that means for you:
Full spine analysis, not guesswork. We use X-rays where clinically needed, instrumentation, and precise palpation to locate the exact segment causing your problem.
Specific adjustments only. We adjust the level that needs it and leave the rest alone. No spinal roulette.
Care plans built around you. Your age, work, sport, and history all shape how we approach your care. A tradie with a disc bulge and a new mum with pelvic pain don’t get the same plan.
Hands-on from start to finish. Gonstead adjusting is done by hand, so your chiropractor can feel and respond to how your body reacts in real time.
Here's how it works:
We start with a conversation
Your history, your symptoms, what makes it worse, what you've already tried, and how it's affecting your day-to-day life. The context matters as much as the complaint.
Then a physical assessment
We look at posture, spinal function, mobility, and range of motion. Not a quick scan, an actual structured examination to find where things are restricted or out of alignment.
X-rays if they're warranted
Not every patient needs them, but when they're relevant, we have on-site X-ray facilities. It gives us a precise look at spinal alignment rather than working off assumptions.
A clear explanation of what we found
Before any treatment begins, you'll know what we've identified, why it matters, and what we're recommending. No pressure, no jargon, no mystery plan you're expected to just trust.
Most clinics will tell you they're different. We'd rather just show you in the first session.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Pure chiropractors different from others in Black Rock?
Two things: certification and method. Pure Chiropractic is a Certified Gonstead clinic, a standard that requires examined, ongoing training that very few Bayside chiropractors hold. Practically, that means your care starts with a detailed spinal analysis and every adjustment is specific to one segment, rather than a general routine repeated on every patient.
How long does a typical chiropractic appointment take?
Your first visit runs longer, usually around 30 to 45 minutes, because it includes your full history, examination and spinal assessment. Regular adjustment visits after that are shorter, typically 10 to 15 minutes, since the detailed groundwork has already been done. Precise doesn’t mean slow.
How much does chiropractic care cost?
Your initial consultation includes a full history, examination and spinal assessment, so it’s priced differently to a standard adjustment visit. You can claim on the spot through HICAPS if your extras cover chiropractic, and GP care plans may cover part of your visits through Medicare. Call (03) 8522 1922 for current fees.
Can Black Rock chiropractors help with back pain?
Back pain is the most common reason patients come to see us. The Gonstead assessment pinpoints which joint, disc or nerve is driving your pain, and adjustments target that level only. Most patients notice a difference within the first few visits.
How often should I see a chiropractor?
There’s no universal schedule, and be wary of any clinic that hands you one before examining you. Frequency depends on what’s wrong, how long it’s been there, and how your spine responds to the first adjustments. A recent flare-up might settle in a handful of visits over a few weeks, while a long-standing issue usually needs more time up front, tapering off as things stabilise.
Where is the clinic located and how can I book an appointment?
We’re at 90 Charman Road, Mentone VIC 3194, about a 6 minute drive from Black Rock via Balcombe Road. You can book online through our website in under a minute, or call the clinic on (03) 8522 1922. Same-day appointments are often available if something flares up suddenly.
