For many people, living with pain, stiffness or recurring injuries can make everyday activities more difficult than they should be. Whether it is long hours at a desk, a sporting injury or the physical demands of daily life, maintaining good movement and spinal health plays a vital role in overall wellbeing.
At Sandgate Family Chiropractic, the focus is on helping people move better, recover from injury and maintain long-term health through personalised chiropractic care. Proudly serving the Sandgate community and Brisbane’s northside, the clinic is dedicated to providing a welcoming and supportive environment for patients of all ages.
Local Care from a Local Chiropractor
Behind the clinic is registered chiropractor Joshua Steen, who brings more than a decade of healthcare experience to his practice.
Josh is a true local, having grown up in the Sandgate and Brighton area. After completing his Bachelor of Chiropractic and Master of Clinical Chiropractic at CQUniversity Brisbane, he spent years refining his skills while working alongside some of Brisbane’s leading chiropractors.
Throughout that time, Josh developed a strong interest in human movement and injury recovery, which now shapes his approach to patient care. He is also currently studying his post-graduate Diplomate of Australian College of Chiropractic Paediatrics, to better serve the families & children of Sandgate.
Outside the clinic, he enjoys staying active through boxing, Brazilian jiu jitsu, running and swimming. He’s also a fan of fantasy and science fiction books and, like many people, has a soft spot for Star Wars. Patients visiting the clinic may even be greeted by Josh’s friendly corgi, Biscoff, who occasionally spends time at the practice.
A Focus on Injury Prevention and Wellness
At Sandgate Family Chiropractic, treatment is about more than simply addressing pain once it appears.
The clinic’s philosophy centres on injury prevention and long-term wellness, with each patient receiving a personalised treatment plan tailored to their individual needs and lifestyle.
This process begins with a thorough assessment of the body’s movement, posture and function. By understanding how a patient moves and identifying any underlying issues, Josh can design a treatment plan aimed at improving recovery while supporting overall mobility and strength.
This personalised approach allows patients to work towards optimal health, improved movement and long-term wellbeing.
A Wide Range of Treatment Techniques
To provide the best possible outcomes, Sandgate Family Chiropractic uses a multi-disciplinary approach to care.
Treatment options may include:
- Chiropractic adjustments, with both firm and low-force techniques available
- Soft tissue massage to relieve muscle tension
- Dry needling to assist with muscular pain and recovery
- Rehabilitation exercises to restore strength and mobility
- Lifestyle and nutrition advice to support overall health and healing
By combining these techniques, Josh is able to tailor treatment plans that suit each individual’s condition, comfort level and health goals.
