Dr. CORY PALMER
Chiropractic care just made sense to me. Everybody deserves to function at their best, when your car breaks down you know it, when your body breaks down, you know it too. Chiropractic is about keeping you like your car running smooth, functional, and interference-free. It is about helping the body communicate and monitor itself to the best of its ability. I have always found chiropractic to be the world's best kept secret and I cannot wait to serve the community of Taranaki and provide everybody with great authentic care.

On my off time, you will no doubt find me surfing. If there is no wave in sight, then I might be golfing, playing basketball or at the gym.
Areas of interest
I enjoy seeing entire families from kids to grand-parents. I have also been playing sport competitively my whole life so I understand the value of chiropractic care as part of a wellness routine for athletes of all levels to restore, repair and perform at their best.

Hello Taranaki, for me Chiropractors focus on the body's innate ability to heal itself. By optimizing the spine’s health and nervous system function, chiropractic care can support the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Whether you're recovering from an injury or simply seeking to improve your health, chiropractic treatments can contribute to your overall well-being.
In summary, chiropractic care provides a natural, non-invasive approach to pain relief, mobility, and overall health. By focusing on the spine and nervous system, it helps improve function, reduce pain, and prevent future health issues. I look forward to bringing my care to Taranaki.
Outside of my professional endeavors, I am deeply passionate about exploring, meeting new people, and learning about history. I look forward to getting involved in the community of Taranaki.
AREAS OF INTEREST
I enjoy interacting with individuals of all ages, from pediatrics to geriatrics. Each encounter reminds me of the importance of holistic care and the impact it can have on individuals at every stage of life.

DR. Logan Smith
My passion for chiropractic care and health began in my youth, fueled by my experience playing high-level football. I was always intrigued by how to maximize my body’s performance and recovery. After grappling with injuries, I realized that optimal body function is key to preventing injuries and enhancing performance. When I discovered chiropractic care, which encompasses all these elements, I knew I had found my calling. For me, it’s all about unlocking your body’s full potential—whether that’s alleviating pain or improving your overall performance—so you can return to the activities you love.
​

Whether you're a competitive athlete aiming for peak performance or someone seeking to improve your overall well-being, My expertise and personalised approach ensure that you receive the highest quality care
When I'm not serving the community you'll find me doing something to try to keep me fit such as being on the golf course, hiking the mountains or in the gym.
AREAS OF INTEREST
I genuinely enjoy working with individuals of all ages and backgrounds who are eager to enhance their health and well-being. Whether it’s professional athletes, weekend warriors, or anyone dealing with injuries or seeking to maintain their wellness, I’m passionate about helping people unlock their body’s full health potential.

WHat is CHIROPRACTIC?
“90% of the stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine”
Roger Sperry, 1981 Nobel Prize winner for brain research
In human beings, nerve messages are transmitted from the body to the brain and from the brain to the body over the nervous system. The nervous system includes the spinal cord that passes from the skull down through the spinal column, and the spinal nerves that pass from the spinal cord to the rest of the body between the individual spinal vertebrae. Every function from movement, digestion, breathing, quality of sleep, the function of your immune system, how you deal and respond to stress and heal (to name just few…) is controlled and coordinated by the nerve system..
Stresses through life come in different forms: physical (bad posture, lack of movement, injuries, birth trauma, etc), emotional (chronic stress, etc) or chemical (toxins, poor diet, etc). Those can affect the function of the spine and lead to some misalignments (that chiropractors call “vertebral subluxation”). Research has shown that this affect the way the central nervous system is processing information. As chiropractors, we locate and facilitate the correction of those misalignments (i.e. vertebral subluxations) using specific and gentle adjustments.
Chiropractic is not designed to make you instantly feel better but to make you instantly heal better.
