Dr Luke Scales

Luke has been a chiropractor for 15 years.  He grew up on the Gold Coast, and completed a bachelor in Exercise Science here before moving to Perth to complete his Chiropractic studies.  After a couple of years working in some large practices in Perth, as well as in a rural satellite clinic, he eventually moved home to Burleigh Heads where he owned and ran his own practice for over a decade, alongside his family's popular Yoga business.

Luke has studied and utilised several approaches and special techniques over his time in practice. These include ‘lower force’ adjustments such as Activator, SOT (blocks), and AK (Applied Kinesiology) analysis.  His main clinical focus is based on the Gonstead Method which is a very accurate system of analysis, often combining x-ray findings, paired with precise and proven, manual treatment.

"In the past serval years I have gone back to study Animal Biomechanical Medicine which was a tertiary course open to qualified chiropractors and vets, and run out of Melbourne. Our participant subjects were greyhounds and Arabians show horses, and it had been a marvellous way to reinvigorate and strengthen my love for this profession. It is truly amazing to see my equine clients respond to the same hands-on TLC that humans have had the benefit of for years. It’s been a big learning curve and a wonderful way to reset myself, by spending time in nature with animals."
