Dr Erin Hawken

Founder + Chiropractor

When people ask me ‘why did you choose Chiropractic?' My reply is always the same; Chiropractic chose me.

Chiropractic has been in my life since I was a baby. My brother, sister, mum, dad & I used to visit our Chiropractor every month. Not because we had an injury or an issue. But because it helped us all be better in some way. And for each of us, that ‘better’ was different. If we were unwell, our first port of call was our Chiropractor, before our GP. If we were struggling at school, we were taken to the Chiropractor. If we were having teenage mood swings, we were taken to the Chiropractor. Chiropractic just somehow made our lives better. And so of course, that was an experience I wanted to be able to share with others.   

Chiropractic for me, is not so much about health, although it without a doubt creates healthier people. Chiropractic for me is about something much bigger.

Chiropractic for me, is about an exploration of life.

Whether I am adjusting a newborn baby with constipation, feeding issues or reflux. Or a corporate professional stressed out of their brain, not able to sleep, headaches, feeling moody & grumpy. Or someone without any ‘issues’ who simply enjoys the way they feel when they are well adjusted, clear & connected, like many of the people I see.

No matter who they are, Chiropractic helps them to access a state that science has termed the parasympathetic state, otherwise known as rest & digest. It is in this state that our body can regulate, adapt, heal itself & access a greater level of health & wellbeing. It is also in this state that we can become more connected to ourselves, that our brain becomes more creative. This state is where we can experience feelings of empathy, joy & love, and where we can sleep & dream, and even make a baby!

This state allows us to become more resilient to our stressors, and to be calm, present & tuned into our life and the world around us. 

Being able to help people access this state and these experiences is beyond profound to me. And every day I feel humbled & honoured by the incredible trust that people place in me, and the desire they have to rediscover life through a healthier body and a more clear, connected & creative state.

Clarity, resilience & vitality
