Chiropractic treatment for back pain and sciatica at Movement Health & Wellness, Dee Why

At Movement Health & Wellness, we focus on diagnosing and treating sports injuries using evidence-based chiropractic care. We work with athletes of all levels across the Northern Beaches — from competitive surfers and triathletes to school sport stars and weekend warriors.

What We Treat
Common Sports Injuries

We treat the full spectrum of sports-related musculoskeletal injuries using hands-on care, rehabilitation, and performance strategies.

Knee Injuries

ACL/MCL/LCL injuries · Meniscus issues · Runner's Knee · Patellofemoral Pain

Knee pain is one of the most common complaints we see in Northern Beaches runners, cyclists, and team sport athletes. We assess the full kinetic chain — not just the knee — to find and fix the root cause.

  • Biomechanical gait & movement assessment

  • Joint mobilisation & soft tissue therapy

  • Targeted rehabilitation exercises

  • Return-to-sport planning

Shoulder Injuries

Rotator Cuff Tears · Impingement · Bursitis · Instability

Surfers, swimmers, and overhead athletes are more prone to these injuries. Our shoulder approach targets mobility, strength, and joint mechanics to support your recovery and help you return to the activities you love.

  • Shoulder complex & posture assessment

  • Dry needling & joint mobilisation

  • Rotator cuff & scapular rehab programs

  • Sport-specific load management

Back & Spine

Disc Injuries · Sciatica · Lumbar Strains · Nerve Pain

Back injuries can sideline athletes for weeks if mismanaged. We use a combination of spinal manipulation, soft tissue work, and targeted exercise to support recovery and help you move with more confidence.

  • Spinal assessment & neurological screening

  • Chiropractic manipulation & mobilisation

  • Core stability & movement retraining

  • Ergonomic & training load advice

Ankle & Foot

Ankle Sprains · Plantar Fasciitis · Achilles Tendinopathy · Stress Fractures

From beach volleyball players to trail runners at Narrabeen, ankle and foot injuries are incredibly common on the Northern Beaches. We treat and rehabilitate with a focus on stability and long-term prevention.

  • Ankle stability & proprioception testing

  • Soft tissue therapy & fascial release

  • Gait retraining & footwear advice

  • Progressive load return-to-sport program

Your path back to sport

We follow a structured, athlete-focused process from first appointment to full return-to-play.
