    Dr Kim Jom
    Biography

    Kim is a caring, dynamic and talented Chiropractor with over 20 years experience that has earned the respect and trust of his professional colleagues and clients alike. He is a proud member of the Australian Chiropractors Association, the Australian Spinal Research Foundation and the International Chiropractic Paediatric Association.

    He was fortunate to be exposed to chiropractic at a young age. During high school he had to make 4 selections for work experience, none of which came through. Subsequently his careers adviser suggested he observe a chiropractor. Well, as they say, the rest is history! As Kim’s knowledge of chiropractic grew so did his interest within the profession. Paediatric chiropractic, sports chiropractic and the concept of wellness chiropractic are of particular interest to him.

    He is passionate about chiropractic and feels that the profession has enormous health benefits to offer the community at large. His goal is to educate and adjust as many families as possible toward optimal health through natural chiropractic care. “Chiropractic works with the laws of nature and respects the innate ability of the body to heal itself from within. As we know, nature needs no help, just no interference.”
