What is Chiropractic?

The World Federation of Chiropractic defines chiropractic as a healthcare profession dedicated to diagnosing, treating, and preventing mechanical issues within the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, it addresses how these problems impact the functioning of the nervous system and overall health.

Chiropractic care places a significant focus on hands-on therapies, encompassing:

  • Spinal adjustments

  • Manipulation of joints and soft tissues

  • Exercise-based rehabilitation programs

These manual approaches are central to the practice, aiming to enhance the well-being and functionality of individuals seeking chiropractic care.

Meet the Chiropractor

David Owen, Chiropractor

BSc. Human Sciences(Chiropractic), MSc (Chiropractic), DC

David’s first career was as a laboratory scientist but, with the support of his lovely wife Daryl, he decided on career change while on an OE. He undertook a five year course of study, obtaining a Masters degree from the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic (AECC) in Bournemouth, England in early 2000. Somehow they managed to have two children during this time.

In 2003, David and Daryl and the kids moved back to New Zealand and settled in Whakatane. It was there they established the Koru Clinic which specialised in pain and injury management. Over the years, David has had the privilege of helping over 7,000 patients find relief from discomfort, and regain their vitality.

Relocating to the charming community of Clevedon to be closer to family allows David to bring his expertise to a new group of individuals who deserve the best in chiropractic care.

David is dedicated to an evidence-led chiropractic approach and believes in a gentle and precise approach to treatment. Unlike the traditional "cracking" associated with chiropractors, he primarily utilizes the Impulse IQ instrument, which provides precise and controlled adjustments without the need for manual manipulation. This approach is more comfortable for patients and also highly effective.

Part of the evidence led approach is an emphasis the importance of not only spinal adjustments but also a comprehensive understanding of your overall health, including lifestyle factors, exercise, and nutrition.

When David is not working he’s pretending to be a farmer on their lifestyle block and curating some native bush on their land. David and Daryl are also keen rock ‘n’ rollers, which is good fun and great exercise!
