Our Story
At Kew their mission from the beginning was to provide the highest level of care that any Chiropractor could offer in Australia and now their practice has not only Gonstead, but also Webster Accreditations. Kew is now recognised as one of the most accredited Chiropractic practices in the country.
With the huge amount of support from the wider community, their now sterling reputation has allowed them to successfully restore function to hundreds of patients each week. From local sporting stars, to international patients with the most complicated cases, this variety and their results have helped make them the most highly rated Chiropractic Clinic in Kew.
Looking towards the future, Dr. Kieran & Dr. Pal are fuelled daily by knowing that they can directly help those affected by pain utilising the safest techniques and hands-on healing. This allows Kew to offer their Patients the most effective advice and treatment not only in their local area, but also greater Melbourne and the world.
“Every day we put our heart and soul into Kew, to make sure we are here to help anyone suffering from pain so they can get back onto the road to recovery. We are really humbled with how much the community has helped us grow in the last two years and we are doing everything we can to give back”.

Dr Kieran Tuke, once a patient and now a Doctor, offers a unique and unparalleled perspective on Chiropractic care.

Dr. Palladin Calvino
Owner & Chiropractor
Dr Pal devoted his life to becoming a Doctor of Chiropractic after witnessing how profound one single adjustment was for his Father. Pal’s Father had suffered 20 years of debilitating pain from a serious car accident and since that Chiropractic adjustment he has been able to get back to things he loves.
Pal’s reputation has spread internationally with patients travelling for treatment from around Australia, The Middle East, Europe, South America, Asia and the Pacific Island’s. This experience has inspired the creation of the “International Chiropractic Initiative” where Pal donates care to indigenous communities in third world nations, a program he is extremely proud of.
Serving as a partner at Pure/Kew Chiropractic, being Gonstead trained & Webster Certified, Dr. Pal is one of the most accredited Chiropractic doctors in Australia.
Dr Pal has furthered his education in many other Nervous System based modalities to deepen his knowledge in how to help anyone that walks into the practice.
