Does this sound like you?
Who we help
Toorak families and professionals come to us with all kinds of problems, from neck pain and headaches to sciatica and burnout. What most of them share is a nervous system stuck in fight or flight, and that is where we focus.
1. The professional
Long days at the desk. A neck that never lets go, headaches by mid-afternoon, wired at night and foggy by two. It has been like this for years.
2. Parents
Two young kids and not enough sleep. Jaw clenched, tingling fingers, a lower back that goes every few months and a memory that is not what it was. Running on empty and calling it normal.
3. Children and infants
Wired and cannot settle. Meltdowns over nothing, fidgety at the desk, waking through the night, tummy aches and headaches. A small body stuck in fight or flight.
If you recognise yourself or your child in any of these, this is your sign to book in now.

The reasons people find us
I started Aura to raise the standard of chiropractic care in Melbourne: measure first, explain plainly, and care for the whole nervous system rather than just the spot that hurts.
A unique approach to healthcare
Our unique approach
Most care treats the symptom. We use the latest science and technology to measure the root cause of your problem, explain it plainly, then care for the nervous system driving it.
What to expect
Stage one: Book an initial consultation
One visit, $99, ordinarily $189. A full history and examination so we understand what your body has been carrying and for how long.
Stage two: Neurological scans and Report of Findings
Dr Arthur Kaganovitch (Chiropractor) explains all the different scans and results and comes up with a bespoke, unique plan for your needs.
Stage three: Nervous system first chiropractic care
Specific, gentle adjustments directed at what the scans and examination found, re-measured against your own baseline so you can see what has shifted.

Four measures, taken in one visit, that show how hard your nervous system is working. Each one is explained to you in plain language at your Report of Findings.
Book Initial Assessment Now
Heart rate variability
A short reading of the gap between your heartbeats, taken at rest. It shows how your nervous system is balancing stress and recovery right now, not how you feel about it.
The gold standard of nervous system health measurement.
Thermographic scans
A rolling scanner reads skin temperature along your spine. Uneven patterns point to where the nervous system is working hardest.
Measures irritation and inflammation in the spine and nervous system.
Neurological examination
Reflexes, balance, coordination and nerve function, tested by hand. It tells us how well your brain and body are communicating.
Gives us an insight into where your body needs extra help.

Meet Dr Arthur
Hi, I’m Dr Arthur.
I founded Aura Chiropractic with a clear purpose: to raise the standard of chiropractic and health care in Melbourne. I was inspired to become a chiropractor after seeing my mum heal from debilitating, years-long pain that was resolved with chiropractic.
Now I get to help hundreds of people just like my mum, using a nervous system first approach. My interest is the autonomic nervous system and how your own genetics shape the way your body carries stress. At Aura my goal is simple: personalised, ethical care that empowers you to move freely, be more resilient and live better.

The clinic
Inside Aura
Because we start with what has not been measured yet. We measure how hard your nervous system is working, with heart rate variability and thermographic scans alongside a full examination, then use precise chiropractic adjustments to bring your body out of protection. Every recommendation is calibrated against your own baseline, not an average.
No. Adjustments at Aura are specific and gentle, directed at the exact segment the examination and scans point to, never a general crack. The adjustment is the tool. Regulating the nervous system is the goal.
Yes. The assessment is adapted for children and adjustments use techniques suited to their age and size. Many of the families we see started with a parent and now bring everyone.
A full case history, spinal examination, posture analysis, neurological examination, HRV measurement and thermographic scans, plus a referral for spinal imaging if clinically indicated. Ordinarily $189. New patients only, one per person, no obligation to continue.
Your second visit is the Report of Findings, where your results are explained in plain language along with whether care at Aura is right for you. If you enrol in the program, that visit becomes your first program session.
No referral is needed; chiropractors are primary healthcare practitioners in Australia. Chiropractic sessions are claimable under most extras cover and we provide item-coded receipts. DNA profiling and the scans are generally not claimable, so check with your fund.
Dr Arthur Kaganovitch (Chiropractor), the founder, with a focus on the autonomic nervous system. Program patients have direct access to Dr Arthur at every session.
