For several months I suffered with severe neck and back pain and eventually ended up with a shoulder that I could hardly move. This also made sleeping difficult. Along the way I saw medical practitioners, physiotherapists and two chiropractors, but the condition didn’t improve. One day when working in the City I met Peter. I was amazed that even after the first visit which involved a very gentle adjustment, there was a substantial improvement within hours! However, a complete recovery took a several weeks (slow and steady). I have continued seeing Peter over the last 10+years in relation to other

I have been receiving Chiropractic care from Dr Peter Bourke for a few years now and I am so glad we met. Peter has been a really important part of my overall health and well-being. He is the most professional, holistic and caring practitioner that I've encountered and my family and I continue to benefit from his ongoing care. Totally recommended.....

Initial consultation was great, seemed like Dr. Bourke really wanted to help - sent for X-rays and thought we’d begin the work. Second session we discussed the plan, got a back crack and then was told lay on the table on focus of square breathing - I did - for 20 minutes while he left room, came back, did a few stretches and that was that - 75$.
Third session, back crack, was told to lay on the table and again, more breathing - when he left to go work on someone else in the room next to mine. 20 minutes of laying on a table breathing while someone else is getting treated he comes back - okay

I first visited Peter with regular headaches, jaw pain, neck and shoulder pain from working a desk job as well as overall body tightness, stress and chronic digestive issues. Having never seen a Chiropractor before I was unsure what the outcome would be but I have had fantastic results.
After only several sessions with Peter my headache issues were resolved and ongoing treatment has reduced tightness and pains throughout. Peter is professional and knowledgeable and equips me with a greater sense of awareness of my health and lifestyle, treating in a holistic and careful manner. I leave my appointments

I had been searching for a new Chiropractor for some time, and stumbled across Peter @CBD Chiropractic, whilst I working in the city.
My back was in a terrible state, and after the initial assessment we worked together on a program to get me moving again. His approach is relaxed and attentive- not using the drop table approach, he adjusts with minimal force unless absolutely necessary. A strong focus on breath and alignment. Sessions at times (for me anyway) leave you in a meditative state that always lifted my mood - not to mention keep me happily moving.

Peter works wonders!
For years I had seen Physios, osteopaths, and myotherapists for my scoliosis and could never get pain relief that lasted for more than a few days. Peter has managed to get me healthy and pain free! He also referred a relative of mine for scans when he was concerned about symptoms and saved her from becoming paraplegic after a tumor on her spinal cord was detected. Peter gives thorough examinations and treats for individual needs.

Peter has been my Chiropractor for almost a decade now and I think that is testament to what kind of a health practitioner he is. The care, attention to detail, mindfulness, and invested interest in his patients is on another level. He continues to be not just an integral part of my holistic healthcare, but also a mentor. Highly highly recommend him to anyone who wants to be looked after as not just another number.
