Getting here from Reservoir

By public transport, bus routes connect Reservoir and Preston via Plenty Road and Bell Street. If you’re in East Reservoir, Murray Road runs east to Darebin Road and connects to Preston as well.
Reservoir’s patient profile at our clinic leans heavily toward tradies and manual workers — people who load their bodies every day and need a chiropractor who understands that their pain often has clear biomechanical causes: lifting, bending, repetitive arm use, awkward access positions. Andrew takes that context seriously and incorporates it into both the assessment and the practical advice he gives.
What chiropractic care at Advanced Health involves
Initial appointment: 45 minutes of assessment and treatment. Andrew takes a detailed case history, assesses posture and movement, performs relevant orthopaedic and neurological tests, and discusses findings before treating. Follow-up appointments are 30 minutes. Treatment typically involves spinal adjustment, joint mobilisation, soft tissue release, and dry needling — the combination depends on your presentation.
For WorkCover patients from Reservoir, Andrew is experienced with the documentation requirements and treatment protocols that apply. Please bring your claim details to the first appointment and let reception know when booking.

FAQs for Reservoir patients
How far is Advanced Health from Reservoir?
10 minutes south on Plenty Road. We’re at 4/107 Plenty Road, Preston 3072 — free parking on arrival.
Do you see WorkCover patients?
Yes. Andrew is experienced with WorkCover documentation requirements. Please bring your claim number and employer details to the first appointment. Let reception know you’re a WorkCover patient when booking.
Can chiropractic help with sciatica?
Often yes. Most sciatica is caused by a lumbar disc pressing on the sciatic nerve, or by piriformis and deep gluteal muscle tightness compressing the nerve further down. Chiropractic care targeting the lumbar spine combined with soft tissue release of the piriformis is effective for the majority of sciatica presentations. Severe or rapidly progressing symptoms require imaging first.
How quickly will I see results?
Most patients with acute complaints notice improvement after 1–3 appointments. Chronic or complex conditions take longer. Andrew will give you a realistic projection at your first appointment.
