Dr Andrew Burgess B.Chiro.Sc.,M.Chiro.

Principal Chiropractor & Director

Andrew completed his Masters of Chiropractic and Bachelor of Chiropractic Science at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia. After working across Sydney, Andrew decided that he wanted to build on his connections he had established in his local community, and therefore set up in Bondi Junction.  

"My love of sports and education has continued into my chiropractic practice where I support and care for a number of world class athletes and sporting teams"

He recognises the importance of chiropractic with sportspeople like surfers, golfers, tennis and football players who use chiropractic to maximise their fitness and performance levels for the heavy demands their bodies are placed under while pursing their sport. Recently Andrew worked as the Principal Chiropractor and Medical official at the Billabong ASP World Junior Championships at Narrabeen and Boost Mobile Surf Show at Bondi Beach. Andrew has also volunteered his time in working as the Team Chiropractic Doctor & Assistant Fitness Coordinator for the Cormac McAnallen’s GAC (Gaelic Athletic Club). He has also become the personal chiropractor for a number of World ranked Australian tennis players and Professional Boxers. In 2009 Andrew acted as a Chiropractor Supervisor at the beach volley ball and hockey for the World Masters Games.

"I have a very functional approach that reviews systemically skeletal alignment, muscle tone and imbalances, global movement patterns of the spine and limbs with correction provided by Chiropractic care (Diversified, Gonstead, Terminal Point Technique, Thompson, SOT, Impulse, Activator), soft tissue therapy (Active Release, Trigger Point Therapy and Sports Massage), Musculoskeletal Acupuncture, active and passive stretch programs, orthotics, education and personalised rehabilitation and fitness programs. Other imbalances in the body are also addressed by reviewing physical, mental or chemical stressors which may be present effecting sporting ability and performance. I believe that that my knowledge of the human body, the services I provide and the management programs I prescribe would be of great benefit to your health and performance".

Andrew has developed a close association with other health professionals in the fitness industry and running his own unique seminars and workshops across Sydney. These talks have been well received and continue to be carried out and supported by Fitness First and Curves Ladies Gymnasiums. Andrew loves speaking and further educating others about the importance of good health and easy ways to achieve it.

Andrews’s number one passion in life is surfing and can be found regularly at his home break at Maroubra beach or travelling up or down the east coast of Australia looking for that perfect wave. Andrew also plays Oz tag football, golf, tennis and is keen angler when the seas aren’t too rough.  

Andrew is a friendly, positive, happy and caring practitioner that seeks to not only help his patients but also enhance their true potential to live a healthier and happier life.
