Restored Living Chiropractic · CasuarinaQuestions, answered.
Careful, honest answers to the questions people ask most about our approach, your care and visiting the studio.
Why we do what we do
Why do you look at posture?
Posture, structure and movement are observable parts of a broader assessment. They help us understand how your body is organised and adapting.
We don't claim posture is the cause of every symptom — it's one piece of a bigger picture, considered alongside your history and other findings.
What is ABC, and what does "unwinding" mean?
Advanced BioStructural Correction (ABC) is the main structural framework Adam uses. "Unwinding" is an educational concept within ABC that describes how adaptive patterns may be addressed progressively.
It's a way to understand the process — not a guaranteed pathway or a fixed timeline.
What are AK, NOT, NET and PSYCH-K?
Applied Kinesiology (AK) and Neural Organisation Technique (NOT) are assessment frameworks involving manual muscle testing and movement/reflex patterns. Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) and PSYCH-K are complementary approaches concerned with emotional responses, beliefs and habitual patterns.
They're used where relevant, after the structural picture is understood. Not everyone needs them.
How care is reviewed
What happens when my symptoms improve?
That's great to hear — and it's useful information. Symptoms and broader findings don't always change at the same rate, so we review the whole picture at reassessment before deciding together on the next step.
How is my care reviewed?
At planned reassessments we look at your symptoms, posture and movement findings, function and progress towards your goals. Recommendations can then continue, change, reduce or conclude.
Is everyone recommended long-term care?
No. There's no pre-set program. Some people need only a short period of care, some prefer ongoing maintenance, some are referred elsewhere and some simply finish. It depends on your findings, preferences and goals.

Do I need a referral?
No referral is needed. You can book directly online or by calling 0401 865 811.
How long is the first appointment?
Initial consultations are longer than a standard visit, so there's time for a full history, assessment and explanation — 40 minutes.

HICAPS / health fund rebates Check with your fund for your level of cover.
