Your Plympton Park Chiropractor at 528 Marion Road

Stapleton Chiropractic has been part of Plympton Park since 1972.

Located at 528 Marion Road, directly opposite Forbes Shopping Centre, the clinic has served this community for over 50 years, through the suburb's growth from a quiet Housing Trust neighbourhood into the rapidly changing, family-filled area it is today.

Whether you have just picked up the kids from Forbes Primary or Emmaus Christian College, finished a shift at one of the nearby hospitals, or are heading home from the city along Marion Road, the clinic is right on your route.

The Plympton Bulldogs run winter football out of The Kennel on Park Terrace, kids play weekend sport at Plympton Oval, and the Mike Turtur Bikeway cuts through connecting cyclists to the coast and the city.

The population has grown from around 2,900 in 2011 to nearly 3,900 by the 2021 census, driven by new townhouses and young families. The median age is 36, and nearly half of all families have children at home.

Desk workers commuting to the city, tradies and shift workers from nearby hospitals, parents carrying toddlers, and weekend athletes using the Bikeway, all are among the most common presentations at our clinic.
