Motion Wellness
Why I Started Motion Wellness — and
What Makes Us Different
You know how everyone says, “health is everything”? I really believe
that—but not just in a surface-level way. For me, it’s about more than fixing a
sore back or treating a headache. It’s about helping people move better, feel
better, and live better—physically, emotionally, and even relationally. That’s
exactly why I started Motion Wellness here in Canberra.
We’ve got two clinics—one in Macquarie and another in Lyneham—and
we do things a little differently. We're not just a chiropractic clinic. We're
a wellness centre that combines chiropractic, counselling,
and massage therapy under one roof. The idea is to treat the whole
person, not just the symptom that brings them through the door.
We Use Real Tech — Not Guesswork
One of the first things people notice when they come in is that we’re not
guessing what's wrong. We use digital X-rays and posture screening
tech to actually see what’s happening inside the body. That means when you
come in with back pain, or stiffness, or headaches—we’re not just poking around
and hoping for the best. We know what’s going on and can plan your care
properly.
A lot of places skip that step, but to me, it’s crucial. I want people to
get the right care, not just a quick crack-and-go. When we see exactly
what’s going on with your spine, joints, and nervous system, we can help with
things like:
- Poor posture
- Back and neck pain
- Migraines
- Injuries
- Nerve issues
- Even things like fatigue and
mobility
And yeah—we get results. Fast ones, in many cases.
The $89 Intro Offer That Everyone
Loves
We wanted to make it easy for people to try us out, so we put together a $89
New Patient Special that includes:
- A full posture screening
- A comprehensive exam
- And your first chiropractic
treatment
That’s a $139 value, so it’s a solid deal. And if weekends are better for
you, there’s a $99 special offer available too.
People always tell us how surprised they are by how in-depth the first
visit is. It’s not rushed, and we explain everything. You’re not just a number
here—you’re a person, and we take that seriously.
Meet Our Chiropractors – They’ve Been
Through It Too
Our team isn’t just professionally trained, they’ve been on the other
side of the table, too.
- Dr Yohan Kim actually became a chiropractor
after his own experience with scoliosis. He knows firsthand how tough
spinal issues can be, so his care comes from a really genuine place.
- Dr Jay Nguyen struggled with back pain when he
was younger, and chiropractic made a huge difference in his life. That’s
why he does what he does now—he’s passionate about helping people feel
strong again.
Both of them take their time with each patient. There’s no pressure, no
rushing. Just clear, honest care that’s designed to work.
We Help Relationships Too – Not Just
Backs
Here’s something that surprises people: we don’t just help with physical
pain. We also offer professional counselling, including couples
counselling. Why? Because mental and emotional stress can absolutely affect
your body, and vice versa.
We’ve had so many patients come in for physical pain, and once they start
working on emotional stress or relationship issues, they start to feel so
much better overall. It’s all connected.
Our couples counselling is super supportive. Whether people are dating,
married, or somewhere in between, we help with things like:
- Communication breakdowns
- Trust issues
- Conflict that never seems to get
resolved
- Parenting disagreements
- Intimacy and emotional
disconnection
- Life transitions (moving, job
stress, family changes)
We use evidence-based methods like the Gottman Method, EFT,
and CBT, which just means you’re not coming in to vent—we’re giving you
tools to grow together.
Why We Take a Whole-Person Approach
Here’s the thing: someone might come in for neck pain and think they just
need an adjustment. But when we start talking, it turns out they’re carrying a
lot of stress from work, or maybe they’re dealing with relationship issues, or
family stuff. That stress shows up in the body. So, unless we deal with all
of it, we’re only addressing part of the problem.
That’s why I’m so proud of how integrated our care is. Whether you need
to work out a kink in your neck, decompress from stress with a massage, or
reconnect with your partner in a counselling session—you can do it all here.
And the team works together to make sure your care is seamless.
Massage, Movement, and More
We also have some amazing diploma-qualified massage therapists on
staff. They help patients recover faster, manage stress, and loosen up all that
tight muscle tension that builds up from sitting all day (or life in general).
And we don’t stop there. We offer wellness products, ergonomic supports,
and recommendations to help you keep healing even after you walk out of the
clinic.

What People Are Saying
We’re lucky to have an amazing community of patients. We’ve got a 4.6-star

We hear things like:

it finally feels manageable.”
