In the clinic
How I work

1. A detailed assessment
Time is taken to understand the underlying mechanics of a problem before anything is done about it: history, examination and the measurements Aura takes at every first visit.

2. A gentle technique
Specific, unhurried adjustments suited to the person in the chair, whether that is a child, an athlete or someone in their eighties.

3. A clear, achievable plan
Findings explained in plain language, then a plan you can actually follow, reviewed as your own measurements change.

Dr Michael Black (Chiropractor)
Your first visit is a full assessment. We take a complete case history, examine your spine, analyse your posture, and run a neurological examination. We also measure your nervous system with heart rate variability and thermographic scans. If imaging is clinically indicated, we will refer you for an X-ray. You leave with a clear picture of what is going on.
The first visit is $99, ordinarily $189. It is for new patients only, one per person, as a one-off payment, with no obligation to continue. Any imaging is charged by the imaging provider and is not included in the $99.
No. Chiropractic is a primary contact profession in Australia, so you can book directly, with no referral needed.
Aura was founded by Dr Arthur Kaganovitch (Chiropractor). Dr Michael Black (Chiropractor) also practises at the clinic.

Your body has been stuck in protection long enough
One visit to measure it. $99, ordinarily $189, no obligation to continue.
