Every person's body responds in its own time, and that's something we take seriously at Gorilla. Some people notice changes within the first few visits: moving more freely, feeling less restricted, and sleeping better. For others, the shift is more gradual as the body adapts and function is restored.
What we do know is that chiropractic care isn't a one-visit fix, and we'd never tell you it is. At your Report of Findings appointment, your chiropractor will clearly explain what to expect based on your individual assessment, so you're never left guessing.
That depends entirely on what's going on in your body, your health history, and what you're looking to achieve. After your initial examination, your chiropractor will present a personalised care plan at your Report of Findings, outlining a recommended visit schedule and what we're working toward together.
We don't do one-size-fits-all care. Whether you're here to address something specific or committed to long-term spinal health and function, your plan will reflect that.
Yes, chiropractic is recognised by most Australian private health funds under extras cover. We require upfront payment on the day of your visit, and one of our friendly team members will be happy to help you process your claim through your health fund.
Please note we don't have HICAPS on site, so you'll receive a receipt to submit directly to your fund. We'd recommend checking your individual policy beforehand so you know exactly what you're entitled to.
We hear this a lot — and we get it. If you've been through rounds of treatment without lasting results, it can be frustrating. The difference at Gorilla is in our approach. We're not focused on chasing symptoms or providing temporary relief.
Our care is built around assessing and improving the function of your spine and surrounding structures — we look at the full picture, not just the part that's bothering you right now. Many of our patients came to us after trying other avenues. What often changes the outcome is having a structured, committed plan of care rather than sporadic visits when things flare up.
We'll be upfront with you from day one about what we can help with and what your best path forward looks like.
This is one of the biggest misconceptions about chiropractic — and one we love clearing up. While many people first walk through our doors because something is bothering them, that's rarely where the conversation ends.
Chiropractic care at Gorilla focuses on the function and movement of your spine and musculoskeletal system. When your body moves well and your spine functions as it should, many of our patients report feeling better in their daily lives overall.
We'll always be honest with you about what chiropractic can realistically offer and what the evidence supports. We're here for people who want to take an active role in their long-term health, not just people who are in pain.
The Y-strap is famous on TikTok and YouTube — and we get why patients ask about it. At Gorilla, we offer the lower-risk version of what the Y-strap is trying to achieve. Our chiropractors are trained in a range of distraction and decompression Power Resets that produce a similar spinal decompression effect with a significantly safer risk profile.
The right tool for your body is chosen at your Report of Findings, where your chiropractor reviews your scans and history first, then matches the technique to what your spine actually needs. That's a more thorough way to make the call than picking one technique because it's popular online.
