Serving Seven Hills Residents Since 2002

Hawthorne Chiropractic has been helping Seven Hills residents with back pain, neck pain, sciatica, and headaches for over 20 years. The clinic is a 6-minute drive from Seven Hills at 317 Hawthorne Road — closer than most people think, and well worth it given the results patients experience.

Seven Hills is a well-established residential suburb, and the patients Dr Armitage sees from the area tend to reflect that — a mix of older active adults managing the wear and tear of decades of physical activity, retirees wanting to stay mobile and pain-free, and families dealing with the everyday strain of busy lives. Whatever brings you in, Dr Armitage’s approach is the same: find out exactly what’s going on before doing anything about it.

About Dr Nicholas Armitage

Nicholas Armitage grew up in Brisbane before heading to the United States in his 20s to train at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa — one of the most respected chiropractic institutions in the world. After completing his Doctor of Chiropractic degree and spending a year working in Chicago, he returned to Brisbane and opened Hawthorne Chiropractic in 2002.

Over more than two decades in practice, he has worked with patients of all ages and with a wide range of conditions — from acute injuries to long-standing chronic pain. He is particularly known for his thorough approach: nothing gets adjusted until he understands exactly what’s happening and why.

The conditions he most commonly treats include lower back pain, neck pain and stiffness, sciatica, tension headaches and migraines, shoulder and upper back pain, and postural problems.

Hours That Work Around Your Life

One of the most common reasons people put off seeing a chiropractor is that clinic hours don’t fit around work. Hawthorne Chiropractic is open early mornings and evenings specifically to solve that problem.

Monday: 7:30–11:30am | 3:00–7:00pm
Tuesday: 5:30–11:00am
Wednesday: 7:30–11:30am | 3:00–7:00pm
Thursday: 3:00–7:00pm
Friday: 5:30–11:00am
Weekend: Closed

The 5:30am Tuesday and Friday starts mean you can be seen before work and still make it in on time. The 7pm close on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays means evening appointments are genuinely available — not just theoretically.

Is Hawthorne Chiropractic Right for You?

Best suited to:

  • People with back pain, neck pain, sciatica, or headaches looking for a hands-on, non-drug approach
  • Patients who want continuity — seeing the same chiropractor every visit
  • Those who prefer a thorough assessment before any treatment begins
  • Seven Hills, Coorparoo, Camp Hill, and Carina Heights residents wanting a local clinic

 

May not be the right fit if:

  • You need a multi-practitioner clinic with physiotherapy or massage under one roof
  • You’re looking for a bulk-billing Medicare arrangement — chiropractic is not covered by Medicare, though most private health funds do cover it under extras
