Meet Dr Daniel Shepherd, Chiropractor
A Personal Journey
A former professional rugby player, Daniel discovered the power of chiropractic care after suffering a severe injury jumping from a waterfall. Doctors told him he’d need multiple surgeries, would be never be able to walk properly again and probably never be able to tie his shoelaces.
Growing up in a family that favoured natural healing approaches, Daniel was encouraged by his father to seek chiropractic care. His chiropractor used methods including spinal decompression, Advanced Clinical Clinical Kinesiology and Chiropractic Biophysics®, and soon Daniel was not just walking—he was back to playing rugby at an elite level!
Inspired by the power of the body to heal itself when interference is removed, Daniel followed his passion to become a Dr.Chiropractic and help others heal and get the most out of life.
Extensive Education & Considerable Experience
Daniel pursued a 4-year Bachelor of Science in Chiropractic at Central Queensland University and went on to observe 100 chiropractors across Australia and the UK. He then embarked on a 7-year journey in the U.S., where he earned a coveted rugby scholarship while completing his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Life Chiropractic College West in California.
A Passion for Adventure
Daniel is passionate about rugby and fitness. He comes from a family that values natural healing and looking after yourself, and he strives to do that with exercise, getting good sunlight and eating healthy foods. He and his family have enjoyed many unique adventures, including experiences in Portugal and Australia.
