North Canberra's family chiropractic practice
At Synergy Chiropractic Centre in Macquarie, Dr Natasha Pragnell, Dr Lindi Vanzwan, and Dr Cara Sharp have been caring for families across North Canberra for over 20 years.
We share one approach: take the time, understand the whole person, and build care around what each individual actually needs. We do not rush. We do not guess.
Whether you are managing a long-standing complaint, supporting your body through pregnancy, or investing in how you feel and function day-to-day, you will leave understanding exactly what we found and why it matters.

We provide thorough assessment and personalised care across a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. If you are unsure whether chiropractic is right for you, get in touch and we will help you find out.Pregnancy, paediatric and laser therapy
Alongside general chiropractic care, our team has undertaken additional training in pregnancy and postnatal chiropractic, paediatric care from newborn onwards, and low-level laser therapy.
