Chiropractic care is an allied health discipline.

The word chiropractic means ‘done by hand’ with work focusing on the spine – and connections to the nervous system. Chiropractors use various adjustment techniques to support better health and wellbeing.

We encourage people to be proactive and take control of their own health. Don’t wait for symptoms to appear and then react. You might be surprised to learn that, as a primary contact, you don’t need a referral to see a chiropractor. And with Gabby having completed her five-year Master’s degree, you couldn’t be in safer hands.

Professional chiropractic care, coupled with lifestyle changes in areas like nutrition, exercise and stress management, are part of a broader and more holistic approach to modern health. An approach chiropractic has been advocating for many years.

Chiropractic Techniques

sacro occipital chiropractic technique

Sacro Occipital Technique® (SOT®)

Designed to restore the natural alignment and balance between the pelvis and the skull. Using the force of gravity, SOT® gently guides the body towards making the necessary corrections. This innovative approach focuses on enhancing the body's own healing capabilities, aiming to normalise the relationship between these crucial structures. By addressing the foundational balance of the skeletal system, SOT® not only aids in alleviating discomfort but also promotes overall health and wellbeing. This technique is beneficial for those seeking a non-invasive solution to improve their body's alignment and function, contributing to a holistic path to wellness.

diversified chiropractic technique

Diversified Technique

The Diversified Technique stands as one of the cornerstone methods within chiropractic care, renowned for its hands-on, precise approach to spinal alignment. This technique involves direct manual adjustments to correct misalignments in the spine, focusing on restoring proper movement and alignment to 'stuck' spinal joints. During the adjustment process, it's common for practice members to hear a popping sound, a natural occurrence indicating the release of joint pressure. This technique is celebrated for its effectiveness in improving spinal function, enhancing mobility, and alleviating pain, making it a popular choice among chiropractors and members.

neuro-emotional chiropractic technique

Neuro Emotional Technique (NET)

This transformative approach recognises the profound impact emotions have on our wellbeing. It's based on the understanding that while emotions enrich our lives, emotionally charged events can leave a lasting imprint, especially when in a vulnerable state. These unresolved emotions can lead to 'stuck' emotional patterns, manifesting as unhealthy aversions, self-sabotaging behaviours, destructive tendencies, and even chronic health issues. NET aims to identify and help release these stuck emotional patterns, facilitating a path to emotional and physical health. This technique is a powerful tool for those seeking to overcome the emotional barriers to wellness.

webster-chiropractic-technique

Webster Technique

The Webster technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of subluxation and/or SI joint dysfunction. In so doing neurobiomechanical function in the sacral/pelvic region is improved.

Sacral subluxation may contribute to difficult labor for the mother (i.e., dystocia), caused by inadequate uterine function, pelvic contraction, and baby mal-presentation. Correction of sacral subluxation may have a positive effect on all of these causes of dystocia.

"From the moment you walk in, you’ll be made to feel welcome, included and safe.

When I started, I conducted an overall wellness exam and scored 60%.

3 months later, I scored 90%!

Without evening knowing it my life improved massively. There’s so much I do now from hobbies, sports, side hustle and full time job. Before Chiro, I’d feel overwhelmed but now I don’t even notice and just love it!!

Gabby will get to know you and what you do. She’ll recommend what’s best! She will have genuine care for you! I highly recommend coming here :)"

"When you open the doors to Chiropractic care, you gain new knowledge and energy for life, and you also feel incredible comfort knowing you have been empowered to find wellness through Chiropractic adjustment.

I am 65 years old and have been attending Buderim Chiropractic for 25 of those years.

Many times I have said to GabriellaI I feel like Humpty Dumpty when I walk in.  But I genuinely feel like I have been put back together when I walk out. It's like magic!

Buderim Chiropractic is a family practice that reflects Gabriella's character and goals in her community. Her warmth and genuine care are reflected in her staff from the moment you walk in, inviting you in like family.

I have recommended all my friends attend Gabriella's practice, and they are now on their wellness journey. I also recommend you embrace a wellness program and open the doors to the Chiropractic world of adjustment."

"I have been regularly coming to this practice for nearly 2 years, which speaks for itself.

I always receive friendly, welcoming service, and I like that the practitioner takes the time to listen to my concerns and gives me clear explanations and proactive feedback on what I can do to enhance my adjustments and overall wellbeing."

Absolutely love the team at Buderim Chiropractic. From the moment you walk in, the whole clinic has an incredible warm and welcoming feeling. We immediately felt cared for and supported.

Buderim Chiropractic is truly an incredible place for both adults and children. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re welcomed with genuine warmth and care. We see Gabby as our chiropractor and Steph at the front desk, and they are both absolutely wonderful.
Gabby & Steph instantly makes you feel comfortable and at home. They are amazing with my kids, always friendly, kind, and incredibly supportive. That welcoming energy is felt the second you arrive.
Gabby is not only an exceptional chiropractor, but someone who makes you feel like you’ve gained a true safety net. She has helped my family in so many ways. Just a few examples:
- My first daughter struggled with UTIs and had multiple hospital visits from just 5 weeks old. Since seeing Gabby, she hasn’t had another UTI and this is the longest she’s ever been off antibiotics.
- My second daughter was a toe-walker and no longer is, and her tantrums have noticeably reduced.
- My son struggled to breathe through his nose. After his very first visit with Gabby, he said he felt amazing and could breathe better through one of his nostrils.
- I’ve personally noticed a huge improvement in my own body and overall wellbeing.
My kids absolutely adore Gabby and Steph. They talk about them all the time, which truly speaks volumes about the care and connection they provide. Buderim Chiropractic genuinely feels like a second home to us.
Overall, life feels so much lighter since seeing Gabby. I honestly cannot recommend the team at Buderim Chiropractic highly enough.

I started seeing Gabby after a challenging first trimester of pregnancy. Her care helped me through not only the physical challenges of pregnancy but in building my confidence in my body’s ability to birth my baby. We continued seeing Gabby through birth (which was very positive) and postpartum. Her support with helping bub to latch was absolutely pivotal in saving our breastfeeding journey and we are forever grateful. Highly recommend for any Mumma’s going through pregnancy to get your body and mind in the best place for birth and motherhood. We always look forward to our adjustments with Gabby. The clinic space and support staff are also incredibly lovely and it is a pleasure to visit ✨

Gabby and the team at Buderim Chiropractic were incredible throughout my wife's pregnancy. They saw her multiple times and helped resolve every issue she was experiencing. The care, professionalism, and genuine support made a huge difference we’re so grateful. Highly recommend!

Such lovely people who truly care.
I cannot thank Gabriella & Marni enough for their incredible support and care they have provided for our daughter and her love of athletics and soccer.
Not only has their expert treatment helped overcome physical injuries that created challenges in competition but their encouragement and holistic approach have truly made a difference mentally as well.
Thanks to their ongoing care Tayla is now performing and competing more confidently, and with fewer setbacks.
From injury prevention to performance enhancement the improvement has been remarkable... on and off the field & track. Highly professional, genuinely caring and always going the extra mile. If you are looking for someone who understands the demands of sport, training and the importance of mindset Gabby & Marni are the ones to see.
We are so grateful to them and look forward to their future support and care helping our daughter reach for her goals. Mel

As a tradesman I always just dealt with stiffness & soreness.. 3 weeks into treatment and I’ve already noticed change in my mobility and recovery. Best part is the major changes in sleep (deep sleeps) something dearly missed since having a baby. Can’t wait to see other benefits roll in.

I cannot recommend Gabby enough! I had been suffering from bad posture and chronic shoulder pain for years, and no other treatment had helped. Gabby's expertise and gentle approach have been a game-changer. She has not only helped me alleviate my pain and posture, but has also given me tools to manage it long-term. If you're looking for a chiropractor who truly cares about your well-being, Gabby is the one!

I had been diagnosed with a bulging disc resulting in 10 year plus chronic back pain. I tried many different options but continued to rely on medication for break through pain. Buderim Chiropractic has given me the best results. I have gone from 8 out of 10 pain to 3 out of 10 pain with only one visit.

The care and level of treatment from Gabriella must be experienced to be believed. I was sceptical at first though with a few lingering health concerns I found instant relief from my first adjustment.
Definitely worth a visit.

I’m so happy to have crossed paths with Gabby! A wonderful human and amazing chiropractor. Her vast knowledge of the body and training in different chiropractic approaches makes for a truly wholesome wellness experience.
I appreciate that Gabby is not just cracking and popping along the spine, she’s checking in with the whole body and asks for feedback when I experience physical wriggles and jolts from the adjustments. This tells me she’s not doing stuff to me, but work with me and my body to help me to be in optimal health.
I highly recommend Gabby for her care and dedication.

I have been seeing Gabby during my pregnancy and the care and knowledge I have been given has been amazing. I feel more prepared than ever for the arrival of bub and all my aches and pregnancy pains have reduced drastically.

I have been receiving treatment from Dr. Gabby and her team at Buderim Chiropractic for over a month now, and I've already seen a significant improvement in my health. Unlike other doctors who have a quick in-and-out approach, Dr. Gabby has a holistic approach to chiropractic and health, which has been immensely beneficial for me and my friends and family whom I have referred to her. The practice and staff have a healing and friendly energy that is just a bonus. I highly recommend Dr. Gabby and her team.

I have been seeing Dr Gabby for several months now and I have been blown away with her care. Back pain I have experienced my whole adult life has now completely dissolved and I never realised how much it impacted my life until now that it is gone. I cannot thank Gabby enough for gifting me this life changing physical improvement. The service she provides is amazing, not just a standard chiropractic approach, but such a holistic, person centered service, aided by her lovely admin staff too. I couldn't recommend Buderim Chiropractic more highly.

This is not just a practice, for me it is like a family. From the first moment I walked in I felt the positive and peaceful vibe of this place, that made it really special and unique for me. Both Dr Gabby and Dr Marni are so professional and caring, they really are excellent chiropractors and human beings. Dr Gabby has always been so helpful and supportive with her incredible energy and motivation. I love their holistic approach and they have helped me not just with my physical discomforts (back pain, period pain, headaches) but also emotionally and mentally. After a few adjustments I have felt so many positive differences in my body, more energy, less pain and even my period got me by surprise as the pain disappeared! It’s not only about the relief though, as they really care and help with the prevention and optimization of my health. So grateful I met all the beautiful family at Buderim Chiropractic as it is the best Chiropractic care you could ask for!

Icon-FAQ
Do I need a referral from a GP?


Chiropractors are primary healthcare practitioners therefore a referral is not necessary. However more and more GP’s are referring to Chiropractors via the Enhanced Primary Care Program (EPC) which entitles you to 5 complimentary visits under Medicare. Please speak to your GP for more information.

What is a chiropractic adjustment?


A chiropractic adjustment is the skill of maneuvering bones in a specific direction to reposition them back into their proper alignment. The purpose of this safe and natural procedure is to permit improved spinal function, improved nervous system function, and improved health.

There are many ways to adjust the spine. Usually the chiropractor’s hands or a specially designed instrument delivers a brief and highly-accurate thrust. Some adjusting methods are quick, whereas others require a slow, constant or indirect pressure.

After years of university training and clinical experience, each chiropractor becomes highly skilled in the delivery of a variety of adjusting approaches.

Is chiropractic care safe?

The New Zealand Government’s Commission of Inquiry into the safety of chiropractic profession found that chiropractic care was “remarkably safe.” Chiropractic has an excellent safety record. It is the result of a conservative approach to health that avoids invasive procedures or addictive drugs.

In relation to the treatment of neck and back pain, studies have shown that a course of chiropractic care was 250 times safer than a course of anti-inflammatory drugs.

Do chiropractic adjustments hurt?
In most cases, not at all. In fact most people find having an adjustment very relaxing.

With some adjustments you may sometimes feel or hear a popping sound from the spinal joints. This is simply caused by a gas bubble that is released from the joint as spinal movement is restored. We often use a hand held instrument to adjust the spine or pelvic blocks to re-align the body. We use special techniques for adjusting infants and children. Whatever the technique, we use skill, not force or strength, to conduct a safe, effective adjustment.

Am I too old to benefit from chiropractic care?

More and more people are consulting chiropractors, especially in their later years. With growing concerns about over-medication and the side effects of combining various prescription drugs, safe and natural chiropractic care is growing in popularity.

Restoring better spinal function can help improve mobility, balance, vitality and endurance. Many patients report improvements with arthritic symptoms and other chronic ailments often associated with the ageing process. The adjusting technique used by your chiropractor will be modified for maximum comfort and results. As we get older and wiser, the simplicity and effectiveness of chiropractic care becomes more and more obvious.

How long will my care be?

Please allow about an hour for your initial consultation. After that, the average chiropractic appointment is about 15 minutes long. 

What results can I expect?
If you’re new to Chiropractic care, you’ll want to know what type of result you can expect.  Individual experience varies from person to person, but most people can expect some benefits soon after beginning care and for these results to advance further as care continues.  Statistically, research shows that Chiropractic care is more effective and economical and also gives longer lasting results for disorders of the spine than other forms of health care.
Is a chiropractic assistant a chiropractor?


Chiropractic Assistants are here to look after you but they’re not chiropractors.

However, they do most everything else to keep Buderim Chiropractic running like a well-adjusted spine.
