Chiropractor for Balgowlah
ReFigure Chiropractic Health Centre is a warm, five-practitioner clinic in Mosman — a short trip down Sydney Road and over the Spit Bridge from Balgowlah and Balgowlah Heights. We offer evidence-informed, individualised chiropractic care that aims to ease back pain, neck pain, stiffness and everyday sports niggles. No referral needed, and we're open six days a week including Saturday.
Where is ReFigure, and how far is it from Balgowlah?
ReFigure is at 18A Spit Road, Mosman (enter via Brady Street). From Balgowlah the route is simple and familiar: down Sydney Road toward the water, across the Spit Bridge, and up Spit Road on the Mosman side, where the clinic sits near the top of The Spit. Because we're on that first rise of Spit Road, we're one of the closest chiropractic clinics to Balgowlah once you're over the bridge — not a trek deep into Mosman. Outside the weekday peaks it's usually a 10–15 minute drive.
Let's be honest about the Spit Bridge, because it's the one thing that gives people pause — it's Middle Harbour's busiest crossing and it can bank up in peak hour. The reassuring part: the bridge stays closed to boat openings through the weekday morning and evening peaks, so any delay then is just ordinary traffic, and we're only just across it. If you're driving mid-morning or early evening, a quick check of the scheduled bridge-opening times is worth it, since each opening pauses traffic for about ten minutes. There's street parking around Spit Road and Brady Street, and Sydney Road buses run the corridor if you'd rather leave the car at home.
Why do Balgowlah locals choose ReFigure?
Balgowlah — including leafy, ridge-top Balgowlah Heights above Middle Harbour — is an established family suburb with a genuine village feel. It's a mix of settled families, professionals and retirees drawn to the harbour surrounds, the schools and the community around the Stockland Balgowlah centre and the Sydney Road shops. Days here tend to be busy and physical: the school run, walks down to the harbour and Clontarf, weekend sport, gardening on those big blocks, and the desk-and-commute hours that fund it all. Each of those puts its own load on backs, necks and shoulders.
Those are the everyday strains we help with. Our team takes the time to understand your history, your current health and your goals before tailoring care to you — never one-size-fits-all. With 15+ years behind the clinic, we aim to find the underlying cause of your discomfort rather than just chase the symptom, using a range of gentle, modern techniques.
What can we help with?
We focus on musculoskeletal concerns and the everyday complaints that get in the way of a comfortable, capable life. Care is always individualised, and outcomes vary from person to person, but Balgowlah locals commonly come to us for support with:
- Back pain and general spinal stiffness
- Neck pain and "tech neck" from desk and screen work
- Sciatica and related leg discomfort
- Headaches linked to neck and posture
- Posture support for office and commuter life
- Sports niggles from running, swimming, tennis and the gym
What techniques do you use?
Our signature approach is Advanced Biostructural Correction (ABC) — a full-body manual protocol that considers your posture and biomechanics as a whole, rather than treating one spot in isolation. Alongside ABC, our practitioners draw on diversified adjusting, Thompson drop-table technique, activator and other low-force options, dry needling and soft-tissue work. If you prefer a gentler approach, low-force techniques are available — your chiropractor talks you through everything and works to your comfort.
Who will I see?
ReFigure is led by Dr Andrew Callister (Principal), who holds a Psychology degree and a Master of Chiropractic, and who previously worked as a trainer advising Olympic athletes and supporting World-Championship ski and snowboard athletes. He's joined by Dr Mathew Cullen (19+ years in strength, conditioning and rehabilitation, working with ABC, rehab and soft-tissue care) and Dr Natalie Hope (a former NSW volleyball representative, offering ABC, dry needling, IASTM, cupping and TMJ care). Our wellness side includes Laura Gutierrez (Emotional Fitness Coach & Breathwork Facilitator) and John Coady (Counsellor & Psychotherapist). Meet the full team here.
Active in Balgowlah? We understand the load
Many of our Balgowlah patients lead active, family-centred lives — walking and swimming around the harbour foreshores, playing weekend sport, chasing kids and fitting training around work. Our sports-focused care uses gentle techniques tailored to you, supporting movement, helping manage physical strain and aiming to reduce the risk of future niggles. It's the same care philosophy Andrew has brought to elite athletes, applied to your everyday performance, posture and comfort. Expecting, or caring for little ones? We offer gentle, comfort-focused support through pregnancy and for families too — see our services for more.
Every person is different, so outcomes vary — your care is always assessed and planned around you. If chiropractic isn't the right fit for what you're experiencing, we'll say so and help point you in the right direction.

Frequently asked questions
How far is ReFigure Chiropractic from Balgowlah?
ReFigure is at 18A Spit Road, Mosman — the first stretch of Mosman you reach after crossing the Spit Bridge. From Balgowlah or Balgowlah Heights it's roughly a 10–15 minute drive down Sydney Road, across the bridge and up Spit Road (entrance via Brady Street). Outside the weekday peaks it's an easy run; in peak hour, or around a scheduled bridge opening, allow a little extra time.
Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor?
No referral is needed — you can book in directly from Balgowlah or anywhere on the Northern Beaches. We're happy to work alongside your GP, physiotherapist or other health professionals where that supports your care.
What can chiropractic care help with?
We focus on musculoskeletal concerns such as back pain, neck pain, stiffness, headaches, posture and everyday sports niggles. After reviewing your history and goals, your chiropractor explains what care may help and what to expect. Care is evidence-informed and individualised, and outcomes vary from person to person.
Is chiropractic gentle?
Care is individualised and, for most people, gentle. We offer a range of techniques — including low-force options like activator and drop-table work — and your chiropractor talks you through everything and works to your comfort.
What's the drive and parking like from Balgowlah?
There is street parking around Spit Road and Brady Street. From the Stockland Balgowlah and Sydney Road shops it's a straight run down Sydney Road to the Spit Bridge, then up Spit Road to the clinic. The bridge doesn't open during weekday morning and evening peaks, but it does open on a set daytime and evening schedule for boats — if you're travelling mid-morning or early evening it's worth checking the opening times so you're not caught waiting.
