South Melbourne Osteopathic Clinic operates from a Canterbury Road practice in Middle Park, a short trip from South Melbourne, Albert Park, Port Melbourne and the surrounding bayside suburbs. The clinic has been part of the local health scene since 1992, run by osteopath Dr Joshua Brohier, who holds a Bachelor of Science from Monash University and a degree in Clinical Science from RMIT, along with further training in acupuncture. Treatment here goes beyond standard osteopathy. Alongside manual osteopathic techniques, Dr Brohier offers acupuncture, the Emmett Technique, Bowen therapy, laser therapy and ozone therapy, tailoring the approach to each patient rather than sticking to one method. People come in for all sorts of reasons - back and neck pain, sports injuries, postural issues, headaches and the general aches that come from a desk job. A typical first visit includes a thorough assessment, a clear explanation of what's causing the discomfort, and hands-on treatment aimed at getting you moving more freely again. Free on-site parking makes it an easy stop for locals popping in before or after work. Appointments are required and fees apply, as is standard for private allied health services, with rebates available through private health cover and, where applicable, DVA and workers' compensation arrangements.
