OUR SERVICES
Our clinic focuses on a Neurostructural approach. This allows our Chiropractor (and you) to understand the relationship with any spinal and nerve issues and your source of pain or movement restrictions. This allows the whole body to be treated to create better health outcomes.
Your initial consultation is designed to thoroughly understand your health and create a personalised treatment plan

Our Chiropractor is a great listener. Dr Linklater will take you through your history in person to determine what is going on now and also what events have led you to this point.

We allow the time and capacity in your session to get a comprehensive spinal assessment, including any necessary Orthopedic and Neurological tests. X-rays are complimentary (bulk-billed) if needed.

You'll get a wealth of information and options.
We'll be able to discuss a treatment plan that suits your goals, with no pressure whatsoever.
"Growing up, I saw firsthand the positive impact Chiropractic care had on my family. Then from working with Chiropractors in work experience, I knew I’d found my calling.
Fourteen years later and I still love what I do. In fact, Chiropractic has become the family trade, both my brother and sister-in-law are also practising chiropractors.
At Genius Chiropractic in Newcastle, my focus is on Neuro-Structural Correction. Rather than simply chasing symptoms, I look for underlying structural shifts in the spine that may be affecting neurological function and contributing to ongoing problems." See full bio.

Everything you need to know about your visit.
While no-one is structurally perfect, there is a normal healthy range.
In the same manner, we can understand what a fever is because we know what the normal temperature is, or what constitutes high blood pressure because we are aware of the normal range.
There are established norms everywhere we look, including gauges and warning lights on the dash board of your car, letting you know when things are abnormal.
At Genius Chiropractic, we are looking for a significant, three dimensional shift of the spine, away from normal. If the head and neck shift in three directions, it will cause the shoulders to twist and the hips to shift, forcing the entire spine out of alignment.
These Shifts cause the muscles to spasm, the ligaments to deform and disrupts NERVES travelling down the spinal cord. In other words, the main communication system that connects your brain to your body can be disrupted, something that our chiropractor in Newcastle, trained in neurostructural care, aims to correct.
While we are highly experienced in using traditional chiropractic manual therapy and adjustment techniques, Neuro-Structural Chiropractic focuses on identifying and correcting problematic or long-standing structural shifts in the spine that interfere with the nervous system, rather than providing short-term symptom or pain relief.
No. Many people visit a chiropractor in Newcastle to improve posture, movement, and overall neurological function, even if pain is not their main concern. View our services to see our most commonly covered areas or speak to us today.
Yes. A qualified Newcastle chiropractor can adapt neurostructural care for all ages, using gentle and specific techniques to support healthy development in children.
During your initial session at our Kotara, Newcastle clinic, our chiropractor conducts a thorough neurostructural examination to assess spinal stability, alignment, and neurological function before any care begins. We can employ any scans or X-rays as required.
Care plans vary depending on individual findings. Your chiropractor will outline a personalised approach based on how long structural patterns have been present and how the body responds to care, however if there is reasonable information available to suggest safe and effective treatment can be conducting in your first session this is possible and will be discussed with you first.
