dr alice taylor, chiropractor
Meet Dr Alice Taylor: Chiropractor/Kinesiologist
Dr Alice Taylor is a warm, intuitive chiropractor who combines gentle chiropractic care with skilled, hands-on treatment. She works with people of all ages and with a wide range of aches, pains, tension and movement concerns, taking the time to understand what your body needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Alice’s treatments draw from manual muscle and fascial release, stretching, low-force and traditional chiropractic techniques, as well as nervous system regulation. Her approach can range from subtle and gentle through to firm, focused hands-on work — because gentle doesn’t have to mean light.
Alice particularly enjoys working with people who value hands-on care and want more than simply having a joint adjusted. Whether you’re dealing with a sore back or neck, tight muscles, headaches, movement restrictions, an active lifestyle or simply feeling like your body isn’t moving as well as it should, Alice tailors each treatment to help you feel more comfortable, mobile and at home in your body.
She also incorporates kinesiology, nutrition, neurological and primitive reflex assessments where appropriate, allowing her to look beyond the immediate area of discomfort and consider how different parts of the body may be contributing to the way you feel.
With nearly a decade of experience as a gymnastics coach, Alice has a particular understanding of movement, coordination and the demands placed on active bodies, while her further training in paediatric and pregnancy care allows her to comfortably adapt her approach across different stages of life.
Alice completed her Bachelor of Chiropractic Science and Master of Chiropractic at Macquarie University.
Her care is personalised, hands-on and practical — helping your body release tension, move more freely and feel better supported.
