Meet Dr Paul Portelli
Neurologically-Focused Chiropractor
Dr Paul Portelli grew up around chiropractic, gaining early exposure to the role it can play in supporting how the body functions and adapts to stress. He has practised since 2008, and today his work spans both family care and work with athletes across AFL, netball, basketball, cycling, and powerlifting. A key focus of his practice is supporting families through every stage of life, from pregnancy and early development through to ongoing health and wellbeing. Dr Paul holds a three-year Paediatric Diplomate and is certified in the Webster Technique for pregnancy care, alongside training in Applied Kinesiology and Visceral Biomechanics.
Meet Dr Tahlia Ingram
Paediatrics & Women’s Health
Dr Tahlia’s interest in chiropractic care is grounded in the connection between the brain and body, and the body’s natural ability to adapt and function. Her own positive experiences with chiropractic care, and seeing its role in the lives of those around her, drew her to the profession from a young age. She has trained in a range of gentle, manual, and low-force techniques, including Paediatrics, Activator Methods, and the Webster Technique for pregnancy care. With a particular interest in movement and performance, Dr Tahlia works alongside other health professionals to support each person’s individual health goals. Dr Tahlia also brings a background in women’s health coaching and movement and rehabilitation programming, complementing her family-centred approach to care.
