ABOUT US
Founder of Origin Chiropractic is Chiropractor, Dr Brad Free. Brad completed his Doctorate in Chiropractic at Life University, Atlanta, Georgia, USA in 2005 graduating as Valedictorian (DUX).
​
Prior to becoming a chiropractor, Brad was a professional rugby player. Initially in the Australian Institute of Sport Program, Brad graduated to the Queensland Reds and then finished his career in Europe with the Saracens and Ulster.
​
It was during his rugby career that Brad was hampered with a whole string of injuries, one after another, finally resulting in a neck surgery. It started off with muscle spasms, a stiff neck and sore back and then developed to nerve pain, numbness, tingling down his arm, “pinched nerves” and extreme headaches which escalated to the point where he was in constant pain and he could not sleep at night.
As a sportsman, surgery seemed the only logical solution and without hesitation, Brad trusted the doctor’s advice at the time, as one does. However, after the surgery the neck never felt quite right. With medical choices exhausted, he was left with only alternative ones and thus found himself in the hands of a chiropractor who was able to completely correct the issue.
​
Brad’s passion is to assist in transforming the lives of others through chiropractic care in the same manner that he has personally experienced. After qualifying in 2005, Brad has treated thousands of patients in Brisbane, Gold Coast and at his clinic in Tweed Heads.
​
Brad can help with back, shoulder, knee, neck and jaw pain, as well as, improvement in posture, headaches and dizziness.

Q. What is a subluxation?

7 PRINCIPLES OF CHIROPRACTIC
1. Your body is under the control of your brain
and nervous system as long as you are alive.
2. Your brain is protected by the skull,
and your spinal cord is protected by the spinal column
which consists of 24 vertebrae.
3. Vertebrae move out of normal alignment
and interrupt your normal nerve flow.
4. This disruption of nerve flow is referred to
as a vertebral subluxation.
5. It is vital to know that subluxations can be silent;
causing problems long before symptoms occur.
6. Chiropractors detect subluxations and by performing
an adjustment, facilitate a return of normal nerve supply.
7. Normal nerve supply results in a
greater expression of LIFE for You and Your Family!
