Our Practitioners
A multidisciplinary team of dedicated practitioners -
each an expert in their field, all under one roof.
Clinic Director & Chiropractor
I believe great chiropractic care begins with understanding the person, not just the condition. Every patient has unique concerns, goals, and experiences, so I take the time to listen and develop a personalised treatment plan that supports your health and your lifestyle. Since graduating from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1999, I've been dedicated to helping thousands of people move better, recover from injury, and stay active for life. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, my approach combines advanced training in chiropractic techniques such as Gonstead, Thompson, Blair, Diversified, Activator, Torque Release, and the Cox method, and I integrate these with additional therapies such as spinal decompression, shockwave therapy, and active rehabilitation, based on each patient's needs. Since opening our doors in 2002, we have grown into a multidisciplinary clinic offering a wide choice of services, and I am proud to be working alongside a team of excellent clinicians all dedicated to serving you.
