Ella Bourne
Chiropractor | Modbury
Dr Ella Bourne is a friendly, down-to-earth chiropractor with a passion for helping people improve their posture, movement, and overall spinal health. Since joining the Health First Chiropractic team in 2014, Ella has built a loyal following thanks to her bubbly personality, warm banter, and genuine care for each individual who walks through the door.
Ella has a particular interest in managing postural concerns and spinal curvature, including scoliosis. She’s a certified ScoliCare clinician, trained in the SEAS (Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis) method, and works one-on-one with patients to deliver personalised, evidence-based care. She frequently supports teens and young adults—performing scoliosis screenings and guiding them through their care with kindness, humour, and clear communication.
In addition to her work at Health First Chiropractic, Ella also serves as a Scoliosis Clinician at the ScoliCare Clinic in Adelaide, where she provides non-surgical scoliosis assessment, bracing, and case management. Her dual roles allow her to support patients across a wide range of spinal curvature concerns—from early screening and posture correction to more complex scoliosis care.
Ella’s broader clinical interests also include sports injury prevention and movement-based care. Growing up as an avid hockey player and umpire, she developed a strong understanding of the kinds of injuries that commonly affect active people. She later built on this knowledge as a trainer for Greenacres, a local AFL club—supporting athletes on the sidelines with hands-on recovery and injury prevention. These experiences fuelled her interest in helping patients return to high-level exercise, competitive sport, and the everyday activities they love. Ella often combines chiropractic care with dry needling and taping to support recovery, reduce strain, and improve performance.
Whether you’re a teenager navigating scoliosis, an athlete recovering from a knock, or simply someone looking to stay active and well, Ella brings a unique mix of clinical skill and friendly energy to every appointment. She believes care should feel approachable, collaborative, and just a little bit fun—something her patients often appreciate as much as her sweet tooth and love of dogs.
