Why Taringa locals choose SpinePass

Instead of paying per visit, SpinePass works on one flat monthly membership of $189 for an individual, with all clinically guided visits included. There are also Partner, Child and Family memberships for households where more than one person sees a chiropractor. See how the membership works.

What Taringa locals come in with

Most people arrive with something fairly ordinary. Lower back pain that is stiff first thing and worse by the end of a long day. Neck pain and stiffness that builds through an afternoon at a desk, often with a neck that will not turn as far one way as the other. Headaches that start at the base of the skull rather than across the forehead.

Others come in with pain running from the lower back into the buttock or down the leg, sometimes with numbness or pins and needles, the pattern most people call sciatica. Tension between the shoulder blades that returns every week is another common one, and a fair amount of shoulder pain turns out to be coming from the neck.

These are musculoskeletal presentations, and an assessment is what establishes whether chiropractic care is appropriate for yours. If you want to read further first, there are plain-language articles on lower back pain, neck pain and headaches.

Fits around work, uni and family

Taringa is a mix of young families, UQ students and staff, and people working from home or commuting into the city. SpinePass has early starts at 7am on Tuesday and Friday, appointments until 7pm on Monday and Thursday, and Saturday mornings, so a visit can fit around school drop off, a lecture timetable or the working day.

Bookings are made online in a couple of minutes, and you can see every available time before you choose one.

Health funds, Medicare and DVA

SpinePass is HICAPS-enabled, so if your extras cover includes chiropractic you can claim at the clinic on the day. Students covered by a parent's policy can usually claim the same way. For members, rebates are credited against the next monthly payment. If your GP has set up a chronic disease management plan, or you hold a DVA Gold Card with a referral, visits can be bulk billed through Medicare or DVA.
