Mike and Kirsten started Adapt Chiropractic in January 2022, after working in Townsville since 2016. We saw an opportunity in this area that we have grown to love and call home to establish a business to provide exemplary care to our patients. Our aim is to provide high-quality, effective, and informative health care in a welcoming environment, to get you out of pain and back to doing what you want. The goal for our clinic space was to be fresh, clean, and warm, without being clinical and cold. We have found a place with natural light, lots of indoor plants, and a welcoming feel.


Hi! I’m Mike.

I have been a chiropractor for 7 years since completing my studies at Macquarie University in 2015. I have a clinical interest in Jaw complaints (TMJ) and in helping people with acute lower back pain. But regardless of the issue, I love helping people get out of pain, and back to the
activities that they enjoy! I love taking on Castle Hill and walking my dog along The Strand.

Hi! I’m Gerard.

I have received chiropractic care most of my life and have
seen and felt the benefits first hand. I like chiropractic for the natural and holistic approach it provides to health and am looking forward to helping people heal naturally and manage their pain/conditions. My goal in chiropractic is to help people with maintaining movement and health throughout their entire lives so they may stay active well into their senior years.
I studied my Bachelor of Science (Chiropractic) and Master of Clinical Chiropractic at Central Queensland University and have spent years training in various chiropractic techniques tailored to the needs of my patients.
When I am not in clinic, you can find me in the gym, riding dirtbikes, crabbing down the creek or just spending time with my wife and 3 kids.

Hi! I’m Kirsten.

(On Maternity Leave)

I graduated from Macquarie University Sydney in 2015 with a Masters of Chiropractic and moved up to Townsville. (Much to the disappointment of my family who finally had their own live-in Chiropractor). I enjoy helping people get back to what they want to do. I have an interest in treating headaches /migraines and neck pain. I always want to keep learning and doing more study, so I intend on completing further study on scoliosis treatment protocols. I love running, bushwalking and swimming, snorkelling, and diving.

Let’s take a tour!
