Meet the Team: Introducing Dr Lachlan Archer, Chiropractor at Apex Chiropractic

About Dr Lachlan Archer

Dr Lachlan Archer is the chiropractor behind Apex Chiropractic in Avondale Heights, where he provides holistic, evidence-informed care for people of all ages.
After completing a Double Bachelor of Health Science and Applied Science (Chiropractic) at RMIT University, Lachlan has spent almost eight years helping individuals and families move better, feel better, and live healthier lives.

Lachlan’s approach goes beyond simply addressing discomfort — he looks at the body as a whole, considering physical, lifestyle, and emotional factors that contribute to overall wellbeing. Many people initially visit him for pain or injury-related concerns but often choose to continue regular chiropractic care after experiencing the broader benefits it can have on their health, movement, and stress levels.

A Holistic and Community-Focused Approach

At Apex Chiropractic, Lachlan takes pride in offering community-based care for the people of Avondale Heights and surrounding suburbs. His focus areas include:

  • Family and general wellness care

  • Sports-related injuries and performance support

  • Posture and ergonomic advice

  • Managing physical stress and muscle tension

He believes chiropractic care plays an important role in helping people understand their bodies, improve their movement, and take proactive steps toward long-term health.

Research has shown that chiropractic care can assist in the management of musculoskeletal conditions such as back pain, neck pain, and certain types of headaches (Beliveau et al., 2017, J Manipulative Physiol Ther). Lachlan applies evidence-informed principles to every patient interaction, ensuring care is safe, effective, and individualised.

Outside the Clinic

Outside of work, Lachlan enjoys exercising, travelling, spending time with family and friends, and cooking. These personal passions reflect his belief in balance, connection, and a healthy lifestyle — the same principles he encourages in his patients.

For Lachlan, opening Apex Chiropractic in Avondale Heights was about more than starting a practice. It was about creating a space where members of the local community could access high-quality, holistic healthcare close to home. He values the strong sense of community in Avondale Heights and is proud to contribute to it through his work.
