Our Heritage — The Wellness Place, Bassendean

For many of our long-standing patients, The Wellness Place is deeply connected to the history of Bassendean and Perth’s eastern corridor. Our journey began in 2004, when we opened our doors as a small, single-room clinic on Old Perth Road. From the very beginning, our vision was clear — to create a purpose-built, multidisciplinary allied health clinic that could support the growing health, recovery, and performance needs of our local community.

In 2005, an opportunity arose to take over a well-known Bassendean landmark — a former antique store affectionately known as “The Place”, which had served the community for more than 40 years. While rich in character, the building required extensive renovation. What followed was a year of dedicated planning, council approvals, rezoning, and hands-on restoration to transform the space into a modern healthcare facility designed for long-term growth and clinical excellence.

By 2006, we proudly opened our doors as Bassendean Chiropractic and Wellness Clinic. In recognition of the building’s local history and its role within the community, the clinic was later renamed The Wellness Place — a name that reflects our commitment to creating a welcoming, supportive environment for individuals and families seeking high-quality allied health care.

Expanding to Serve the Perth Community

As our patient base grew, so did our desire to improve accessibility for clients across Perth. We established satellite clinic locations in Kings Park, Coolbinia, and Jolimont, allowing city-based professionals and active individuals to access care closer to their workplace. These partnerships also enabled us to operate within state-of-the-art gym and training facilities, supporting clients with integrated rehabilitation, performance, and preventative health services.

A New Chapter — Peak Performance Institute

In 2022, after years of careful planning, we launched Peak Performance Institute in West Leederville. This expansion allowed us to extend our services beyond the eastern corridor and strengthen our presence across Perth’s inner city and western suburbs. Peak Performance Institute reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering modern, performance-driven allied health care for athletes, professionals, and community members alike.

Built on People, Purpose, and Progress

At the heart of our growth is our dedicated multidisciplinary team. Our practitioners, support staff, and partners have been instrumental in helping us serve thousands of community members over the years. Their shared commitment to clinical excellence, continuous learning, and compassionate care has shaped The Wellness Place into the trusted healthcare provider it is today.

Looking Ahead

Our work at The Wellness Place in Bassendean is ongoing. We continue to invest in our facilities, professional development, and innovative treatment approaches to ensure our clients receive the highest standard of allied health care. From our humble beginnings to our role as a leading multidisciplinary clinic serving Perth’s eastern suburbs, our focus remains the same — helping people move better, recover stronger, and live healthier, more confident lives.
