Meet Dr Ben Appleyard (Chiropractor)
“I was inspired to become a chiropractor because it gives me the ability to significantly help people with my own two hands naturally, without drugs or surgery. It’s rewarding to influence the body’s functional health and natural healing mechanisms to enhance human potential.”
What Ben also finds fulfilling about being a chiropractor is the deep understanding of how powerful chiropractic is as an instrument of change and observing this in people when their health and quality of life improve as a result.
Education and Professional Development
Ben earned a Bachelor of Science (Anatomy & Physiology) from the University of Queensland in 2000, followed by a Master of Chiropractic from Macquarie University in 2003.
Each year, he completes professional development courses, with a particular interest in advancing our understanding of neurology and the effects of functional health on the body and brain.
Expanding Access to Chiropractic Benefits
According to Ben, only about 10-12% of people in society currently seek chiropractic care. He believes many are deterred or incorrectly advised by negative influences and, as a result, miss out on the incredible benefits chiropractic care can offer. Ben hopes to see a significant change in his lifetime, increasing this percentage so more people in the community can experience the advantages of chiropractic care for themselves and their families.
