What can I expect during the Report of Findings visit?

During the Report of Findings visit, you'll be walked through exactly what's going on in your body, how the chiropractic care can help, and what to expect, including timeline and costs.

How does holistic chiropractic care benefit my health?

Holistic chiropractic care provides more than just symptom relief through adjustments. It helps you work with your body's natural physiology for optimal health, leading to a stronger, healthier, and more vibrant version of yourself.

Chiropractor Murdoch

Nook Chiropractic is an Applecross practice led by Dr Kyle Duncan, seeing patients from Murdoch and across the surrounding area.

We do not guess, we test for it. The first appointment is a full spinal and nervous system assessment, and at the Report of Findings visit we go through what we found, whether we can help, and what that would involve including timeline and cost.

It is a short drive from Murdoch to the practice in Applecross — around 13 minutes outside peak.

Getting here from Murdoch

It is about 13 minutes from Murdoch, usually along Canning Highway or Leach Highway. Worth knowing before you start, because care is rarely one visit — the practical test is whether the trip still suits you on the fourth appointment, not just the first.

Appointments are available Tuesday, Thursday and Friday mornings and afternoons, Monday afternoons and Saturday mornings. Booking online shows live availability.

Murdoch sends us people who spend the day at a desk on campus and the evening at another one at home.

Long study hours in a chair that was never set up properly are worth looking at early, while the pattern is still easy to change.

None of that means the assessment is the same every time. It means we start with what your week actually asks of your body, then test rather than assume.

Dealing with lower back pain?

Most lower back pain builds up over time rather than arriving in one moment, even when one particular movement is what set it off.

For students and staff around Murdoch, long study sessions in a chair that was never set up for it are a common contributor, and it is easier to change early.

You get an assessment first and a clear explanation second, including the expected timeline and cost, so you can decide from there.

We would rather assess it first and tell you plainly whether we can help.

Neck pain and stiffness for Murdoch patients

Neck symptoms can refer into the shoulder, the arm or the head, which is why the assessment covers more than the sore spot.

For students around Murdoch, laptop height and study hours are usually where this starts, and both are fixable.

The assessment covers the neck, the mid back and the shoulders, because they rarely act independently.

The starting point is an assessment, not a treatment plan. Book in and we will go from there.

Assessing headaches in Murdoch

Not all headaches are the same, and the useful first step is working out what kind you are dealing with.

For students around Murdoch, headaches through exam periods and long study blocks are common, and screen and posture habits are part of the assessment.

If the assessment suggests your headaches are not related to the neck, we will say so and refer you to your GP.

We would rather assess it first and tell you plainly whether we can help.

Living with migraines?

If you experience migraines, your GP or neurologist leads that care. Our role is limited to assessing the neck and upper back, where some people have a contributing component.

For students around Murdoch, we will assess the neck component and be straight with you about what we can and cannot help with.

Our role here is narrow and we would rather be clear about it than oversell it.

If you are not sure whether this is something we can help with, ring us and ask. We will tell you honestly.

Sciatica and leg symptoms

Leg symptoms can come from the lower back, the pelvis or the hip, and telling those apart is the point of the assessment.

For students around Murdoch, long seated hours are a common aggravator, and simple changes to how you study are usually part of the plan.

Where the assessment raises anything that needs medical review, we refer you. Where it does not, we explain what care would involve.

Book an initial consultation and we will assess it properly before recommending anything.

Questions from Murdoch patients

Do you see patients from Murdoch?

Yes. The practice is in Applecross, roughly 13 minutes from Murdoch outside peak, generally via Canning Highway or Leach Highway. Patients travel to us from right across this side of Perth. If the distance is a concern, call us first and we will tell you honestly whether it is worth the trip.

Can I claim on private health insurance?

Chiropractic is covered under extras cover by most Australian health funds, though the rebate depends on your policy and level of cover. Check with your fund, and we can process claims on the spot where your fund supports it.

What are your opening hours?

Monday afternoons, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday mornings and afternoons, and Saturday mornings. Exact times are on the contact page, and the online booking system shows live availability.
