Proback Clinics Reviews 

The Proback Victoria team are very lovely. Although it turned out that I had Fibromyalgia, the K-laser and shockwave therapy brought some relief to some unbearable focus points of my pain, when my hips would jam up and my shoulder was sore. They were very understanding and flexible when I messed up my appointment timings due to brain fog, always did the best they could do to accommodate and on occasion, made time to see me if I could drop in quickly. For a long time, their treatment kept me afloat and their kindness and sensitivity honestly brightened up my days. Unfortunately, the treatment didn't fix my underlying issue (which it couldn't have), but it definitely kept me going a bit longer and it's still a great solution to non-pharmaceutical pain relief. Thank you Proback!

My experience has been amazing. I'm finally slowly getting my life back after suffering with debilitating chronic back pain and sciatica from two herniated discs in my l4-l5 and L5-S1 for almost 2 years. Everyone is super nice and they've be amazing in general. I'm so grateful

I have been attending Proback for several months now and my experience has been truly amazing, the staff are lovely and a pleasure to deal with, you really can tell it is a family run business you are not just a number and that they genuinely want to get you better and they are not just after your money.

You are greeted by the reception team Nessa, Claudia, Melinda & Kyra to name a few who are all lovely and a pleasure to deal with, the practice manager Dipa goes above and beyond to make sure you are looked after the whole reception team are all a pleasure to deal with.

The Chiropractors, Osteopaths and Physiotherapists themselves are very knowledgeable and lovely also, they actually listen to what symptoms you are experiencing and any feedback you give them regarding your symptoms and changes in your symptoms as your treatment progresses.

I have been suffering lower back issues since around 2013 and have been unable, to work since early 2018 due to being in constant unbearable pain.
I even had back surgery in 2019 which initially seemed very positive however I could tell something was still wrong after around 6 months but no one would listen to me, I even got told I should see a phycologist, however 18 months after the back surgery I developed almost constant debilitating lower back pain and started experiencing almost constant muscle spasms accompanied by buttock pain on my right side, in late 2022 I started noticing a weakness below the knee causing me to severely twist my right ankle at the end of 2022.
At the end of 2023 I started developing sciatica-like symptoms then at the beginning of the 2024 I also started to lose the ability to walk and I was reliant on crutches for several months.
I have lost count how many consultants I have actually seen telling me there is nothing obviously wrong with me and I need to focus on rehab exercises. At this point I had already done over 5 years of rehab exercises under the care of multiple Osteopaths, Physio and even a PT after being told my symptoms were not spinal.
However, after doing some research, I suspected something called Piriformis Syndrome might be contributing to my symptoms again no one would listen to me, after getting fed up of being told there is nothing obviously wrong with me and that it’s my head. I decided to visit Proback it’s the best decision I have made in a long time.

When having shockwave therapy usually initially see Arlind the Managing Practitioner, he is very knowledgeable and such a lovely guy usually followed one of the Proback Practitioners which is usually Shola who is amazing or occasionally Damanie or Ophelia who are all very knowledgeable and lovely. Damanie even added something to my treatment plan which helped prove one of my contributing issues was indeed Piriformis Syndrome and also reduce my pain dramatically.
I have more recently also started to also have Prolozone therapy which is normally administered by Dr Christian the lead practitioner and Mudasir who is one of the Physiotherapists they are both very knowledgeable and lovely, Dr Christian also makes your feel very welcome and at ease with humorous side. More recently Samra and Blessy who are also Physiotherapists been treating me they are also lovely. I have noticed my pain has been reduced by over 90% when combining the Prozone Therapy with the Shockwave and Decompression Therapy.
I even got told by an old friend I move young man now not someone more elderly like I used too.

My health issues are very complex and I am not fully pain free yet I recently had a few weeks where I felt the best I had in over 10 years. Together with Proback we have now managed to pinpoint the key areas that are causing my remaining issues. ]

At the end of the day, you have to also put the work in also if you want to get better, you can’t expect many years of ongoing issues to suddenly disappear with just a few treatments. I have few setbacks along the way however I am confident that with Proback’s help I am now very close to being pain free without any serious mobility issues.

I can honestly say I have had better results with Proback over several months than I have had over the last 5 years with multiple consultants, chiropractors, osteopaths and physios etc. THANK YOU.

I visited Proback after experiencing lower back pain & shoulder issues. I found the service from start to finish professional, friendly and of high standards. The reception team were efficient and personable and made everything easy. The treatment team were incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything in detail, really getting to know my issue and making me feel reassured. I had a course of treatment which very cleared up my problems and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Proback again.

Very professional people and well trained know what they are doing. I feel the difference from very first day. thank GOD I am back normal I was not able to move even walk was too far. I have attended 6 sessions so far I am very satisficed.

After years of pain and decreasing mobility due to various injuries, I took my son’s advice and booked an appointment at Proback in Victoria. For 2 years prior to the appointment, I’d been unable to stand or walk for longer than 5-10 minutes without extreme pain. I tried regular visits to a chiropractor and had some relief after each visit, but it was usually short-lived.

After just 4 Shockwave treatments in 2 weeks at Proback I was able to stand and walk for much longer, and I’ve improved with each subsequent visit. I now have more mobility and less pain in my lower back, neck and painful right shoulder than I’ve had in decades – something I believed would never improve.

The absence of pain is allowing me to sleep better, I no longer wake up in pain at night when I turn over, and consequently I have more energy during the day. My mental health has improved – probably due to lack of pain and much-needed quality sleep, but also because I can now see light at the end of the tunnel.

In the space of just 6 weeks, I went from being unable to walk or stand for longer than 10 minutes (and thinking this was permanent), to spending nearly 9 hours on my feet during a day out, only sitting down for a minute here and there. I’m stunned to be honest and very happy, and I wish I’d gone months ago as I’d be all sorted by now. (I have about 10 weeks of treatment left and a plan of exercises).

(Previous issues include a slipped disc that resulted in scoliosis of the spine, degenerative disc disease in my neck and associated nerve pain, and same problem in my lower back. Tight muscles, weak muscles, pinched nerves, tendonitis and I’ve dislocated various joints over the years – all leading to a place of virtual immobility, constant pain and chronic headaches).

I have to say thank you to everyone at Proback - Dipa for always being encouraging, the reception staff for always being helpful. Special thanks to Damanie, Ophelia and the staff involved in administering the Shockwave treatment. Big thanks to Yohanis for treating my son and giving him much-needed relief from pain and immobility. If I hadn’t seen his results with my own eyes, I’d never have booked an appointment for myself. I’m now getting back mobility that I thought had gone for good due to my age and previous injuries.

I have had neck and shoulder pain for many years and the therapy I received from Proback instantly relieved my pain and I felt 50% better after the first day. Now after 4 sessions I feel 90% better. I highly recommend.

I’ve had a back problem for about 5 years now, just in the last year it got really bad I had pain even walking. I’d had previous treatment from a chiropractor and osteopath which helped but only eased the problem for a short period of time. I decided to give Proback a call as I wasn’t coping at all as I mentioned. From the get go they were fantastic. I had a consultation and X-ray and they could see the problems I was experiencing. Proback put a shockwave treatment in place following on with some exercises and all I can say is Wow! Wow! Wow 95% of my pain and discomfort has gone, I can walk , work and Surprisingly dance again . I haven’t finished my treatment program yet but so far I’m so happy with the results and would like to say a huge thanks for your service absolutely top notch.
Best wishes

I have had a long-standing problem with my back, which over the years has steadily got worse. The Proback people have been tremendous in their care and attention and all-round service. After careful diagnosis they tried radial shockwave therapy which helped but didn't fix the problem. After further discussion they moved me to Prolozone therapy - which has had sensational results. I am now for the first time in years, pain-free. I would recommend anyone who has serious back issues to give Proback a call.

I herniated the disc in my lower back a few years ago and received excellent treatment from the Proback team with extreme care and attention. I saw one of their senior consultants whom from my X-rays, was able to recommend and put me on a treatment plan which gave me life back.
I recently aggravated my back injury and needed urgent care to which the team responded with such great kindness and support that has helped me a great deal on my recovery journey.
I honestly don’t know what I would have done if I didn’t find the place.

I want to let you all know that I didn’t tough will be anyone able to help me with my low back pain and need surgery done which is the last thing I want to do.
Doctor Chris know me from about 5 years ago when I did some procedures just before Covid, he did the right procedures to help me with that.
I use ProBack clinic and highly recommend it to anyone that keen for pain relief and healing.

It’s a scam!!!
I went there on november because i was suffering of herniated disc . It was the worst decision of my life they don’t care about you they just want money. I was treated by the main one and other chiropractors no one knew what the problem was. They love using shockwave therapy even if it’s not working on the patients. After i paid 12 sessions i have been told that the only way to fix my problems was with exercise and magnesium that i could have done it before without spending all of these money. If you want to be cured don’t go near there they want the money not your health. If you have any back pain please don’t go over there i am okey to be contacted if you need more explanation

I am so grateful I came across a place called Proback Clinic. I was in immense pain from something that I deemed to be an alien to my right leg from waist down to my toe.

When I came to Proback, I was told I needed a treatment called "shockwave treatment."

I also had to take an X-ray, and the empirical explanation that was brought to my attention from Proback gave me an inner smile that confirmed I was in the right place for treatment.

Thank God that alien pain has left my leg.

I WILL RECOMMEND ANYONE TO GO THERE.

The staff will make you feel at home.

I will go there for a "shockwave treatment" now and again.

Finally, the treatment is therapeutic.

Thank you

Firstly, I would like to thank Dr Christian Allard and his gorgeous wife Dipa Allard, for founding this clinic and for having such an awesome team of specialists.

My journey with Proback, Victoria, began at the end of May 2024, and I will arrive at the end of my treatment by the end of October.
I received shock-wave and decompression treatments for sciatica and spinal realignment.

My journey began with my desperate search for someone who could help rid my body of the sciatica I had been experiencing for a number of years. Prior to discovering Proback, I had tried various therapies and treatments but nothing helped for long and I found myself living with constant leg, hip and lower back pain.

After my initial consultation with Proback, I knew I had made the right call; because at Proback, your initial consultation includes two visits: first you have your x-rays taken, secondly you see the results of said x-rays and have a discussion with a specialist.
This is where I had a major epiphany! When I saw my x-rays my jaw dropped because I was then able to see the condition of my spine which clarified the problems I was experiencing with my body. More than that, after my consultation with Probacks Managing Practitioner, Mr Arlind Cela, I reached a better understanding of where my pain was coming from. Mr Cela is no ordinary practitioner; this man is a miracle worker when it comes to the body and mind: I have had counselling over the years owing to PTSD and no other specialist has been able to do for my body and mind what Arlind Cela has done. In fact, every multi-disciplined practitioner I came into contact with at Proback, seemed to have something magical about them, so much so that after a few occasions of having
Mr Shola Adedo provide me with shock-wave therapy, I requested to have him as a constant because he just seemed to know were my discomfort was every time I saw him!
Everyone who works at Proback Victoria, are lovely, kind, patient and generous.

To say that Proback gave me my body and mind back is no overstatement: Arlind Cela, Shola Adedo, Ophelia, Damanie and Dimitar are among the team of amazing specialists that are literally worth more than gold! I have gone from experiencing discomfort in my yoga classes to (now) being able to participate in yoga, pilates, spin and even zumba
life can be so joyless when we experience physical pain and it's crazy to think that some people believe that they have to live with it owing to a physical defect, age or wear and tear but Proback clinic proves that we do not have to live with our pain; something can be done about it and there are specialist out there to help. I am so grateful to have discovered Proback because they have provided me with a new way of treating my mind and body. Thank you Proback

It’s important I write a review which is reflective of my experience. After experiencing sudden lower back pains I came here for an appointment. I was seen by someone who too the x-ray and he even indicated to me that my condition might be worser than it is - this only added to my anxiety. I was then seen my a woman who explained my results and indicated I had needed further treatment which if I recall is around £1600. Then finally you have the receptionist who followed up countless times to try and see if I would go on the treatment plan. What do they all have in common? Prioritise money/profits over patient safety. I then went on to see a physiotherapist and he advised me on a stretching and exercising program. The result? Immediately I saw the pain go away naturally and never looked back since. I would advise to avoid at all costs.

Christian was 10/10 I went in last week and could not walk 2 days later I was walking and 1 week later im almost fully back in the game. The reception team were amazing.

I am so grateful to have discovered Proback Victoria because they have provided me with a new way of treating my mind and body and have given me a refreshed spirit for life. I have never spent money more wisely and I am a believer of 'health over wealth'. Thank you Proback.

It’s been a journey, but really worth. All practitioners were helpful. Happy with results that we reached all together. A massive thank you

I recently visited Proback for treatment of sciatica and posture issues, and I am incredibly impressed with the results. From the initial consultation, Christian took the time to thoroughly understand my condition and tailor a treatment plan specifically for my needs. His approach was both professional and compassionate, making me feel comfortable and confident in the care I was receiving.

After just a few sessions, I noticed a significant reduction in my sciatica pain and an improvement in my posture. Christian used a combination of adjustments, exercises, and practical advice to help me achieve long-lasting relief.

I highly recommend Proback to anyone suffering from sciatica or posture-related issues. Their expertise and dedication to patient care are truly exceptional.

I usually initially see Arlind the Managing Practitioner he is very knowledgeable and such a lovely guy usually followed by either Shola or Dimitar who are also both very knowledgeable and lovely. Ophelia tends to do my reassessments she is also knowledgeable and lovely. I have it’s also had treatment with a few other practitioners for example Damanie is also very knowledgeable and lovely in fact the whole team is amazing.

Although I am not 100% yet I feel like we are on the right track to pin pointing the exact source of my main issues and very close to figuring out how best to treat them hopefully meaning I have a much better quality of life. For example, my sciatica-like symptoms and pain are much less than it was previously I even had a few days last week where I could walk without crutches for short distances.

I can honestly say I have had better results with Proback over a few months than I have had over the last 5 years with multiple consultants, chiropractors, osteopaths and physios etc. THANK YOU.
