Dr. Sam Carroll
B.Sc.Chiro., M.Chiro
Chiropractor
Hi, my name is Sam and I am a senior chiropractor at AJ Chiropractic & Health Clinic! On this page, you will find information about me, my practice style and my approach to treatment.
A little bit about me...
My background and education
I’m a qualified chiropractor, having graduated from Macquarie University with a Bachelor of Chiropractic Science and a Master of Chiropractic.
I hold post-graduate certifications in dry needling through Global Education for Manual Therapists (GEM-T), the gold standard in dry needling education.
My approach and philosophy
At AJ Chiropractic & Health Clinic, I focus primarily on sports injuries, exercise rehabilitation, and dry needling, areas I’m deeply invested in both professionally and personally as a keen sportsman and runner myself.
I know firsthand what it feels like to push your body, deal with setbacks, and want to get back to doing what you love as quickly and safely as possible. Having experienced injury and recovery both as a practitioner and as a patient, I bring a strong level of understanding and empathy into my care.
My approach is hands-on, practical, and built around open, honest communication. I take the time to listen to your goals and explain things clearly in a way that actually makes sense. Whether you’re an elite athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone dealing with everyday aches and pains, I believe you deserve to feel comfortable, supported, and actively involved in your recovery.
My practice style and techniques
I’m known for being friendly, compassionate, and straightforward. There’s no fluff and no pressure, just honest, effective care focused on real outcomes.
I am a strong manual therapist and my treatment typically combines a mix of joint adjustments with deep tissue work.
I use dry needling regularly to help reduce pain, improve muscle function, and speed up recovery, always tailoring treatment to suit your comfort level and individual needs.
For those who do not like needles, I have my trusty elbows!!
Cases and patients I love the most
I’ve worked with high-level athletes across a range of sports, including Rugby League players, Olympic-level netballers, and long-distance ultra-marathon runners. That said, the people I value most are everyday patients, gym-goers, tradies, office workers, and anyone simply trying to get through their day without discomfort. The goal is always the same: to help you feel better, move better, and get back to the activities that matter most to you.
