Life Chiropractic Centre: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Best: service & Healing!
Fantastic experience: Matt and the team are fantastic. I had lumbar spinal fusion surgery and didn’t think I’d be able to get Chiropractic adjustments again, and I was quite nervous about it post surgery.but Matt was fantastic and he explained that it was all fine and how he works around it all. Now with 2 plates and 4 screws in my lower back along with regular adjustments from Matt my back has never been better. He’s been our Chiropractor for more than 10 years and we wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: Matt is the best!!
Thank you Tionne, its always a pleasure to work with you.
Fantastic experience: My whole family have seen Dr Matt for years. I honestly feel amazing every time I have an adjustment. He has helped me so much with my migraines. Everyone working at life Chiro are so lovely and helpful. If you haven’t been you’re missing out!
Thank you Holly, glad I could help.
Fantastic experience: Really lovely, friendly and efficient staff. Matthew is very approachable, knowledgeable and takes great care to go through in detail the diagnostics and setting expectations of treatment. I am already feeling the benefits (better sleep, able to sit for longer periods without pain, walking easier) after years of what is probably spinal abuse and neglect.
Thank you Angelique, its nice to hear you are improving.
Fantastic experience: Matthew is awesome. I've been going to him for 20years ,
Thank you Dean.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic clinic, been seeing Matt for over 20 yrs amazing Chiro and cannot live without him
Fantastic experience: As a long haul truck driver in my late 60s it is important to keep the body in tune. Life Chiropractic Centre is my go to for an adjustment when in Brisbane.
Fantastic experience: Me and my family have been seeing Doctor Matt for a long time now, noticing improvment every single time. The staff are very friendly and helpful, making our regular care very efficient. Thankyou Dr. Matt & team
Fantastic experience: Great service and great results Been seeing Matthew for over a year now and never felt so good
Fantastic experience: I found life Chiro Carina when I found myself not being able to walk properly, due to a number of things going on with my spine. Mathew and the team at Life Chiro Carina have been nothing short of amazing. I HIGHLY reccomend Claresta, a massage therapist who works wonders alongside Mathew. SOO Grateful for this clinic, and the people who work in it! :)
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Matthew for years and he has got me through some of my worst injuries including a disk herniation, neck injury, and those random niggles I get as I get older. As a full time dancer and dance teacher I highly recommend getting seen to. Matthew is a legend & the staff are incredibly nice & easy to talk to.
Fantastic experience: After years of headaches, my neighbour suggested I try a chiropractor - I'd never been to one before. Went in and got a plan organised, over a few months. Found Matthew to be very professional and knowledgeable - happy to explain anything I asked. All staff very polite and helpful. Have managed to get headaches reduced significantly - much more manageable, and still improving, and got exercises to further help with my recovery. Highly recommend. Great parking, easy to access.
Fantastic experience: I have been coming to doctor Mathew for several years now and he knows his stuff, I sit a lot in the work that I do and let's just say I look forward to popping in every now and then for my adjustment. About 3 years ago I went to a spine specialist let's just say he was a so called quack, I came into doctor Mathews he saw the ct scans measured me up for size did his own X-rays at the practice waited less then a week for his answer and straight away he advised me against surgery and that he could help me and it's been 3 years now I have been able to start jogging and lifting heavy weights again. He is very friendly and the staff there are just sweet hearts too they will just about go out of their ways for you if they need to within reasons to proved you information. And cross-check with Doctor mathews. He is that popular sometimes you have to wait an extra half hour to get your appointment but others then that you will not be disappointed.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic service every time.
Fantastic experience: Matt is an excellent chiropractor and his work has made a massive difference to my physical and mental health.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic service, very professional & if the issue is more than what they can help you with they don’t keep you coming back just to take your money. They will recommend other professional services better suited to your needs.
Fantastic experience: We came to Matthew reluctantly as we had not had much success with previous chiropractors. Matthew is an extremely knowledgeable chiropractor and has helped my neck immensely. I suffered from daily headaches and migraines but now only need adjustments from time to time. The whole team are very friendly and helpful. We have recommended friends to see Matthew who also rave about him!
Negative experience: Booked at 5:30pm my consultation and didn't get in till 6:20pm almost an hour wait no apologies or acknowledgement. The adjustment itself was only 4 to 6 min I timed it. I was extremely rushed and felt like a number or another dollar sign. It was quite an awful experience to be so rushed out the door and not asked how I was feeling or if anywhere elese needed addressing. I don't feel it was fair at all considering I paid $97 to be left feel like quite humiliated actually. My neck still feels out of balance too - I never got asked anything. Just a simple " you are done"... I've been nevertheless felt like this at any chiropractic before in my lifetime of sessions. No care plan or recommendations for my neck- nothing. Just use a heat towel I was told. I'm aware this is a busy clinic but no matter how much money you or successful you are - no new client should be treated as such and left waiting almost an hour only to be cut short and treated poorly.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, and great work done here. Always feel welcomed and like my needs are being met. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Great chiropractor. Location is easy to get to and parking available. Nice friendly staff and good prices.
Fantastic experience: Have been going here for more than 20yrs couldn't recommend it enough
Positive experience: Professional
Fantastic experience: Quality and informative care by professional and helpful staff.
Negative experience: Crack and Collect is what I call this place. The chiros are great, don't get me wrong they are good, BUT being on the table for 3 mins (Yes I have timed it), and in most cases 4-5mins, unless you have some follow up thing where they spend 15mins with you, then don't expect too much more than crack crack thanks for coming. Have left a few times feeling not the best and that nothing was achieved especially with lower back. Positives: Easy to book and get an appt Chiros know what they are doing Negatives: In and out too quickly Feeling of being rushed and them not caring Too eager to make you book next appt (first thing they ask when your appt is done) Want to put you on a plan for visits of like 2 a week for 3 months No HiCaps machine there at all, have to do it yourself Poor rebates by health providers Feels like a production line of people coming in and out BTW: I am not using my real name as I don't want them calling me.
Fantastic experience: The most incredible chiropractor I have ever seen. Sean is an absolute treasure for anyone who is struggling with ailments or pain. Sean has been able to help me advocate for my own health to my doctors by passing on his expertise, knowledge and recommendations. He really does know his stuff and I feel very grateful to be in his care. He listens and validates how you are feeling, digs deep for answers to help you live a better quality of life. I have gone from being disheartened to optimistic because he has helped me to feel better and manage my chronic pain. The receptionist staff are also so very cheerful, helpful and friendly. I wish I could rate Life chiropractor more!
Fantastic experience: The staff are professional and friendly, and Shaun the chiropractor is a magician when it comes to knowing his stuff. The best chiropractic appointment I've ever had is with this centre thank you.
Fantastic experience: Just a superb place. Matthew cares about his patients. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Awesome staff, alway friendly, fixed alot of things, headaches gone. Would recommend to everyone
Fantastic experience: Matthew, the remedial massage and reception staff all do a wonderful job. Friendly, helpful, make you feel welcome, and provide an amazing service.
Fantastic experience: One of the most affordable and professional chiropractors in Queensland
Fantastic experience: Great place. They know what they are doing. 10 out of 10
Fantastic experience: The gym and overall equipment is great, but an experience i had put a really sour taste in my mouth, after signing up to the gym and referring a friend i was informed that for my action i get some free gym day (can't remember right now, it was either 3 weeks or months or something like that.) I micro manage
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Sean for a few months now and he is a really great chiropractor. He takes the time to listen to you and doesn’t just brush off what is hurting you. If he makes some adjustments and something is still bothering you, he will do some more instead of just pushing you out the door. Really friendly and down to earth. All my family go to life chiro now
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Matthew for about a year. Always walk out feeling way better and all the staff are always super happy, friendly and helpful. I recommend Matthew to any of my clients looking for a good, down to earth chiro.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic chiropractor!
Fantastic experience: Go to Chiro for an adjustment every month , helps me get by, staff are very helpful and friendly
Fantastic experience: Matthew is fantastic. Really down to earth guy who does a fantastic job of listening to what your problems are and finding the best and time efficient solutions
Fantastic experience: I started going to Matthew 8 months ago for an old whiplash injury and my posture and comfort has greatly improved - he takes great care in what he does and now continues taking care of my alignment while I'm pregnant. I highly recommend Life Chiropractic! :)
Fantastic experience: Super knowledgeable
Fantastic experience: Very grateful! Matthew helped me restore the health after giving birth. Highly professional therapist.
Fantastic experience: Great place friendly staff awesome chiro and facilities! Really well priced, happy to recommend to everyone! Is now our family chiro.
Fantastic experience: Five stars isn't enough. Matthew corrected my head forward posture which was out by 9cm on X-rays. I've been going here 5 years and went from a history of being plagued every few weeks by a pelvic tilt, to barely needing maintenance. On the odd occasion that I do something stupid, Matthew puts me back together in two minutes. Go here.
Fantastic experience: Best chiropractor I have found, always walk away happy.
Thank You Steven glad to hear it.
Fantastic experience: Won't go anywhere else. Excellent Chiropractor.
Thank you John, glad I can help.
Fantastic experience: I found Life Chiro through google reviews when I had acute back pain. Matthew's diagnosis and treatment gave me instant relief and now ongoing maintenance means I'm improving and staying well. Friendly staff and personal service. I recommend Life Chiro to my friends and family.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant chiropractor, gentle in approach but very effective, immediate relief. Highly recommend.
Thanks Clare, glad we could help.
Fantastic experience: Great people and awesome service. Very professional.
Fantastic experience: Great service with cheerful happy staff.
Fantastic experience: Can highly recommend Matthew! Have been returning to Matthew for several years as he was able to fix the terrible back problems I had at the at the time. This was after many doctor visits , referrals to back doctor specialists etc. Nothing had helped. After studying all reports, xrays, etc. Matthew worked on my back consistently to get me pain free. I try to return each month for maintenance to keep my neck and back aligned.
Fantastic experience: Matt is very experienced and has taken care of myself and family for over 13 years. He takes the time to listen to any presenting concerns and significantly reduces my neck pain each visit. The team at the practice is very friendly :)
Fantastic experience: Excellent treatment and great service. I particularly like the view on overall health. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Life Chiropractic. Matthew is a very knowledgeable and caring chiropractor who places emphasis on general wellbeing and health and how this can impact your body. I have had issues with my TMJ joint for years, however since seeing Matt over a year ago, my pain is now minimal. Thank you to Matt and the team at Life Chiropractic.
Fantastic experience: Matthew is great! I have never felt better!
Fantastic experience: Friendly family practice with the practitioner helpful with explaining cause of injury/damage
Negative experience: Don't get Xrays there as there is little rebate on them. I am in top health cover and the Xrays cost $150 and I received $20 rebate. I was not given this advice about the rebate - maybe just a con. If you need Xrays - go to an Xray place that bulk bills. I wasn't happy - the initial visit cost $244 - that's outrageous and the Xrays weren't even discussed with me. I certainly won't be returning.
Hi Michelle and thank you for your review and feedback. Let me clarify a few of your concerns. At your initial consultation I explained, as I always do, the costs associated with having your x-rays taken on site and I gave you the option to go to a bulk billing radiology centre. After this you still chose to have your x-rays taken with us. There is no way we could know what rebate anyone would receive as there are many insurers with many different policies and they are constantly changing. If you are disappointed with your rebate may I suggest you discuss your policy options with your insurer or insurance broker. Our x-ray fees have not changed in 15 years however health insurance premiums have risen exponentially, whilst rebates continue to be reduced. As discussed we would look at your X-rays together at your next visit once they had been read and analysed and I am happy to do this with you at no charge.
I wish you all the best.
Positive experience: Its a small quiet little shop. Parking easy, no real wait time, boring for kids. Not expensive but in saying that it is 1 where u need several to many visits....
Fantastic experience: Matthew and his team are consummate professionals and they perform an excellent job of looking after your family's health. I was strugglng to find a good Chiropractor when I came across Life Chiropractic, 17 years later I am still going to see Matthew and have never desired to change to anyone else, this is a clear indicator of the exceptional service I have constantly received here. Thanks.
Fantastic experience: I was in a world of hurt with severe lower back pain, and after months of appointments at the physio with little to no improvement, I took a friend's recommendation to see Matthew. I am SO glad I did. While my back problems are chronic, his adjustments combined with dietary and supplement recommendations have made a huge and positive impact on my quality of life. Additionally, the clinic staff are all warm and friendly, and very knowledgeable. Do yourself a favour and book an appointment!
Fantastic experience: At 4 months pregnant I was in tremendous, crippling back pain. Dr Matt was able to see me within hours and after being corrected I had almost instant relief. The next day I was a new woman! I maintained treatment and had no other issues right up to full term. I couldn't thank Life Chiropractic enough and highly recommend them!
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing this Chiropractor for nearly 2 years. They are professional and dedicated. Matthew and the girls are friendly and easy going. He is very knowledgeable in all areas of Chiropratic and health.
Fantastic experience: Very warm and welcoming staff. Matt is a caring, experienced and knowledgeable chiropractor. The team provide an holistic approach to health and well being with information sessions, recipes and a small but impressive rage of products. Very happy to recommend them.
Negative experience: The worst chiropractor . Go to Institute of sports and spines instead they are professionals.
Fantastic experience: Best Chiropractor in Brisbane
