What to expect at Spine Studios
At Spine Studios, we aim to make your experience as comfortable, professional and informative as possible. Whether you’ve seen a chiropractor before or it’s your first time, we’re here to guide you through each step of your care with clarity and compassion.
Our approach focuses on identifying the root cause of your pain, providing hands-on care to relieve discomfort, and helping you return to work, life and the activities you love.
You will find us located at Shop 1 - 982 Waterworks Road, The Gap QLD 4061, in front of The Gap Village. For your convenience, there is plenty of off-street parking in The Gap Village complex.
If you have any questions before your appointment, don’t hesitate to contact our team here.
Your initial consultation is all about getting to know you, your history, and what’s brought you in. We’ll start with a thorough clinical history and ask about your current symptoms, any past injuries, and relevant lifestyle factors.
Next, we’ll perform a detailed physical examination tailored to your needs — this may include orthopaedic, neurological, and postural assessments, with a focus on spinal and disc-related issues. If required, we may refer you for imaging such as x-rays (partially covered) or an MRI (out-of-pocket cost) to get a clearer understanding of your condition.
Please allow up to 30 minutes for this visit. No treatment is typically provided on this visit unless clinically indicated.
Your First Visit: Comprehensive Consultation & Examination
At your second appointment, we’ll review your results and explain what we’ve found in clear, easy-to-understand language. You’ll receive a diagnosis, and we’ll outline your personalised care plan, including frequency and expected outcomes.
If appropriate, your first chiropractic treatment will be provided during this visit, using techniques best suited to your condition - from manual adjustments to spinal decompression therapy or gentle mobilisation methods.
Please allow up to 30 minutes for this visit.
Your Second Visit: Report of Findings & First Treatment
Our care plans Dr John Grace (chiro) provides are tailored to your specific needs and goals, and therefore will include regular appointments to help you achieve these goals.
Once your initial goals have been met, the team will be here to help you with any long-term health goals you may have. We may also recommend ongoing maintenance care every few weeks or monthly to help prevent flare-ups and keep their body functioning at its best.
Please allow 15 minutes for these visits.
