Dr Lindy Cheetham, Chiropractor
B.Chiro. Sc., B. App. Sc. (Clinical)
I have been involved in health care all of my life initially working as a registered nurse in large government hospitals. Whilst appreciating crisis care can prolong life I wanted to work with people to improve their health rather than help to prop them up after they had reached crisis. I was a long-term chiropractic patient initially because I suffered regular headaches and realized chiropractic was the obvious way to help people towards a healthier life. After completing a five-year double degree university course at RMIT I initially moved to Mittagong in 1997 and then established my own practice in Wollongong in 2000.
I enjoy helping people of all ages and stages of life and happily encourage people to use chiropractic as one aspect of their health care along with good nutrition, exercise and positive relationships in their life. I continue to be astounded by the amazing ability our bodies have to heal themselves given the right conditions.
Dr Richard Robertson, Chiropractor
B.Sc. (Anatomy & Physiology), M.Chiro.
I began my working life as a massage therapist, using diverse techniques to help people feel relaxed. This experience led into rigorous study at Macquarie University completing a five-year, double science degree in chiropractic. My subsequent work as a chiropractor has given me extensive experience both here and overseas in assisting people to become well. For 15 years I ran my own chiropractic clinic in Kingsford.
I have completed further study in Functional Neurology, through The Carrick Institute, treating children with learning issues. Recently I spent a year in Thailand practicing as a chiropractor and pursuing my interest in standing meditation. I value my role in helping people on their path to better health.
