Pain Free and Posture Perfect: How Spine and Posture Care Is Changing the Way Sydney Heals
About Spine and Posture Care
Spine and Posture Care is a chiropractic clinic based in Sydney CBD, with a second location in Barangaroo. We have been serving Sydney since 2013 with one clear mission: find the root cause of your pain and keep it gone for good.
Our clinic was founded by Dr. Mark El-Hayek, head chiropractor and owner, after he noticed a direct link between the amount of time people spent sitting at work, the changes it caused to their posture, and the pain they experienced as a result. Given that Sydney CBD is largely made up of desk-based professionals, it came as no surprise that most patients were walking in with poor posture. That observation became the foundation of everything we do.
Dr. Mark holds a Bachelor of Medical Science from the University of Western Sydney, majoring in anatomy, physiology, and neurobiology, along with a Masters of Chiropractic from Macquarie University. He is joined by a team of qualified chiropractors, each holding Bachelor and Master of Chiropractic degrees from Macquarie University and fully registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).
What We Treat
Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain is one of the most common conditions we see. When you start feeling pain while sitting, standing, or exercising, it can quickly affect your daily life. We identify which joints and muscles have been aggravated and create a treatment plan that addresses the problem directly, not just the discomfort you feel on the surface.
Neck Pain
Neck pain that locks up, limits movement, or causes recurring stiffness is often tied to changes in spinal function over time. Our chiropractors assess how the neck is moving and where surrounding muscles are compensating, then treat those specific areas to restore proper movement.
Mid Back Pain
Mid back pain is frequently linked to prolonged sitting and poor spinal support. We look at how the full spine is functioning and identify where restrictions have developed so treatment is targeted and effective.
Sciatica
Sciatic nerve pain in the leg can be debilitating. We work to find the root cause in the spine, identify which nerves are affected, and apply treatment to reduce the compression and discomfort causing the problem.
Bulging and Slipped Discs
Whether the disc is in the neck or lower back, a bulging or herniated disc requires careful assessment. Our chiropractors perform muscle, nerve, and reflex examinations alongside movement tests to determine how the disc is affecting the body, then apply targeted spinal treatment to relieve pressure and reduce pain.
Headaches and Migraines
Many headaches originate from tension and restriction in the upper neck, not just from stress or dehydration. We look at how spinal function in that area is contributing to the pattern and treat it directly.
Poor Posture and Posture Correction
Poor posture is not fixed by simply sitting up straight. Forcing the body into an upright position without addressing the underlying cause can create muscle tension and lead to further injury. Our approach begins with an accurate postural assessment so that treatment, exercises, and rehabilitation are specific to the changes in your body. The goal is for good posture to become a natural habit, not something you have to constantly think about.
How We Work
Finding the Cause, Not Just the Symptom
Our entire model is built on the belief that there is no point treating what you feel without understanding why you feel it. Every patient goes through a thorough initial consultation that includes history taking, a full spine examination, orthopedic and neurologic testing, digital posture analysis, and an accurate diagnosis. Where required, X-ray imaging is also arranged.
Treatment typically includes gentle joint movements to increase motion and reduce stiffness, muscle releases to address tension, and exercise or rehabilitation to strengthen areas contributing to the problem.
Personalized Care
Treatment is not the same for every person. We develop plans specific to your diagnosis, your lifestyle, and your goals, whether that means getting back to running, training in the gym, or simply sitting comfortably at a desk without pain.
Free 15-Minute Phone Consultation
We understand it can be hard to know where to start. That is why we offer a free 15-minute phone consultation with one of our chiropractors. It gives you the chance to describe your problem and get clear advice on what you can do about it before committing to anything.
Our Locations and Accessibility
We operate from two Sydney locations. Our main clinic sits at Level 4, Suite 4.02, 139 Macquarie Street, Sydney NSW 2000, right in the centre of the CBD. Our Barangaroo clinic serves professionals in that precinct who need accessible, nearby care.
We accept all private health insurance with on-the-spot HICAPS claims, covering providers including Bupa and HCF. Bulk billing is also available for patients with a GP referral through the Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) program, applicable to a maximum of four treatments for chronic conditions.
What Makes Us Different
We do not simply chase your symptoms. Over 3,700 people in Sydney have come through our doors, and the results our patients report, from corrected posture to long-term relief from chronic back and neck pain, reflect a model built on honesty, thoroughness, and genuine care. We are upfront about what we can and cannot help with, and if your problem falls outside our scope, we will point you toward someone who can assist.
Our team operates with one goal: get you back to feeling your best as quickly and effectively as possible, and make sure the pain does not keep coming back.
