Dr. Luke Griffin

Luke completed his Bachelor of Applied Science (Chiropractic) and Master of Clinical Chiropractic at RMIT University.

He is originally from country Victoria and has gained experience working in rural South Australia before returning to Melbourne to practice.

As an associate Chiropractor, Luke has developed a keen interest in a functional neurology based form of Chiropractic care. This type of treatment aims to encourage better nervous system function and central integration (i.e. brain function), by optimizing posture and spinal health. When necessary, this treatment also addresses other key systems that feed the brain with information such as proprioceptive, ocular and vestibular mechanisms. The ultimate goal of treatment is for the patient to attain better general health and wellbeing, using a functional neurology based model.

Luke uses many different techniques during treatment including manual adjustments, activator, pelvic blocks, and other forms of stretching & neurological exercises. These techniques are applied in necessary amounts to meet the needs and preferences of each individual patient. In most cases the patient will also be given exercises to be completed in their own time.

Luke also has a keen interest in nutrition and helping patients with dietary advice, as well as keeping fit and healthy by way of regular physical activity.

Any questions please call 0405 870 872 today.

Reviews

“Great place with lots of cool stuff and very friendly and helpful.”

“A naturopath was my last resort for my hormonal symptoms and I’m so happy I took the leap of faith. I felt immediately comfortable. My first consult was thorough and I have seen some amazing results. The natural herbs are not a quick fix but a gradual process. Was happy to put something natural into my body rather than a quick medication fix. You are guided through the whole process and your input is a must with Candice. Would not hesitate to recommend Candice and Northcote Natural Therapies. My fiancé also thanks you.”

“My first experience with naturopathy couldn’t have gone better…Candace doesn’t just prescribe a quick fix and sends you on your way, she listens and understands the troubles you could be facing and actually follows through. Candace is proactive, a realist who doesn’t sugar coat the truth but restores your faith and positivity. Candace just ‘gets it’. Visiting her isn’t a painful appointment you want over and done with, it’s something I look forward to. Thank you Candace for creating such a beautiful business and for fixing me up! My health wouldn’t be where it is today if it wasn’t for you and your practice. Xox”

“I can highly recommend Northcote Natural Therapies. Thank you so much for your support for the Little Sisters of the Poor. I prefer to buy from businesses who give back to the community so I will definitely be back. I’m also going to try the peppermint spray to get rid of spiders around my house – thanks for that idea!”

“I miss this shop so much, it was always a delight to be in, the friendly staff, their knowledge and their beautiful products….any chance of international delivery? X”
