Our People
TIM EDWARDS
Dr. Tim Edwards graduated from RMIT in 2003 with a double degree in Chiropractic Science/ Clinical Science and moved to Western Australia to start work in 2004. Dr. Tim does not use what would be considered traditional chiropractic treatments. He has travelled to the USA multiple times to receive extra training in diagnosing and treating soft tissue dysfunction and adhesion with Integrative Diagnosis. This training has given him a valuable insight into the biomechanics of injury and rehabilitation. He is the only practitioner in Perth and one of only a handful of practitioners in Australia with this training.
Dr. Tim enjoys staying active having completed the City to Surf marathon, the Mandurah Half Iron Man and the Busselton Half Iron Man. He understands the needs of both the casual and professional athlete. This has all gone by the way side since becoming a dad…
