Dr. Robert Leigh (Chiropractor)

My first impression of chiropractic was formed seeing my dad on a chiropractors table having his spine “cracked”. Then I saw a chiropractor for an injury received from my teenage trolley pushing job days. This also involved having my spine “cracked”. Both chiropractors seemed like really nice gents and the techniques used were much gentler than they looked at first, but I wouldn’t say there was a huge career desire created from those experiences.

Having my dad choose a career as a nutritionist/ naturopath and seeing him help great numbers of people toward better health helped inspire me toward a career in natural or in those days( mid 80’s) “alternative” health modalities. It was at a year 10 careers day at my school that a chiropractic representative really grabbed my attention and I chose year 11 subjects accordingly, with a view to studying the required science subjects firstly at school and then at university to enable the pursuit of a chiropractic career.

So from Pittwater High School in Sydney's Northern Beaches I went to Sydney University and completed a Bachelor of Science majoring in anatomy and physiology, and then attended Macquarie University gaining a Masters of Chiropractic Science in 1991. To survive financially through uni I worked in 2 chiropractic clinics massaging each patient before their chiropractor adjusted them, which was great hands on experience for me, and laid the foundation for my current approach to practice of chiropractic involving deep soft tissue releases before adjustments. One of the said chiro's had a practice in Collaroy on Sydney's Northern Beaches and he went to the beach across the road each morning and practiced from 2 till 6 pm each day. The life balance available in the chiropractic profession was also attractive to me!

I then practiced in Sydney from 1991 until 1995 when I moved to Perth to help out in a church group. I have since practiced in the Chelsea Centre until the present day, enjoying my practice very much in the West and now considering myself a West Australian for life.

It is such a blessing to be able to enhance peoples health and wellbeing through chiropractic care for a living. I also strive to educate people regarding healthier life choices as knowledge really does empower us to make the choices necessary for greater health and wellbeing. We are not programmed for daily tiredness, fatigue, anxiety, anger, irritability, aching joints, depression, diabetes and then early death. Healthier choices can improve our lives, no matter where we are at.

It brings me great joy to see peoples lives change for the better. Knowing for example that Brent a father of 2 young kids in his early 40’s now doesn’t take 5 -6 Panadols each day for his headaches and neck pain. In fact he has none! Yes he feels more alive personally but just consider how his interactions with his work mates and his productivity have changed, let alone with his children and wife after work. Chiropractic care and a few healthier choices can enhance our lives remarkably!

In 1999 I married the love of my life Sharon and we currently live in Scarborough with our three boys Jadon(6), Connor(5) and Daniel(1.5) and enjoy the coastal lifestyle very much. Perths weather and the numerous great outdoor facilities and parks make it, in our opinion, the perfect place for raising a family. Having started golf at about the age of 12 and playing on and off for years, I now play once weekly on a variety of courses throughout Perth and its’ immediate surrounds. For me , not only is it a challenge, but it is also a form of escape and replenishment for the mind and the body. Walking the dew covered fairways as the golden sun rays reflect off the trees in the early morning is simply good for the soul.

Of course regular chiropractic adjustments facilitate not only a good golf game but also help my body and mind to cope with the stresses imposed by a busy lifestyle with work, family and church responsibilities all adding to the load. Having learned that, unlike my initial experience of chiros being just bone crunchers, chiropractic adjustments reduce stress hormones in the body and therefore facilitate not only increased spinal function but also greater health and longevity, we make it a priority for our whole family to have their spines checked every 2 to 3 weeks. Just like dental hygiene is a normal part of life , so is spinal hygiene as we only get one spine!

So…., who doesn’t have any stresses in their lives? We all do! Chiropractic plays an integral part in reducing the effects of stress on our bodies and minds, so don’t wait until you are “munted” and can’t walk or move your neck, book in and lets get optimal spinal hygiene happening for you and your family. Carpe Diem – “Sieze the day”, optimize !

Dr Joshua Morton (Chiropractor)

I am the youngest of four boys; my three older brothers are twelve, ten and seven years older than me.  All of my brothers were heavily involved in sport which resulted in me wanting to be involved in sport by the time I was two and a half.  At which point I was introduced to gymnastics.  A sport to this day I think is the greatest ever invented.  While I am not competing anymore, I still train as a gymnast maintaining a healthy body and mind.

I was introduced to Chiropractic when I was fourteen due to a serious injury which put me out of sport for nearly two years. At this point I became more aware of my body and its function realising that Chiropractic is about maintaining health and is a way of life.  My lifestyle, sport and diet became paramount to me in maintaining my health and over the last decade have structured a philosophy of health that I can pass onto others in order to help them attain optimal health and well being. 

Dr Juliette Ta (Chiropractor) 

I first discovered Chiropractic during my last high school years when I was asked to apply to University courses. Of all the possible careers, I was drawn to Chiropractic. I had my first adjustment during my first year of Chiropractic studies at Murdoch University, after which I was hooked! Nothing and no-one could persuade me to take upon any other career path.

Throughout my studies and Chiropractic experiences, I was privileged to participate in a healthcare relief mission to help impoverished communities in India during December of 2009. I found the experience most memorable and humbling. It was during my trip to India that I knew, without a doubt; I had embraced one of the most amazing and rewarding careers. My other memorable experiences involve providing care to athletes during competitive sporting events organised by Murdoch University.

During my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis, reading and listening to music. One of my most favourite hobbies is to learn about new cultures and meeting new people. I am excited to be a part of the Longevity team and I look forward to meeting you soon.

Tina Fenn - Wellness Team Coordinator

I have had a neck problem for over 20 years and I lived in constant pain.

As far as I was concerned there was nothing I could do about it so pain became apart of my life.

That was until I met the team from Longevity Wellness Centre.

After a program of care the tension in my neck is gone and I started to notice other wonderful changes ie: sitting and standing for long period of time pain free, increased energy, improved sleep and the list goes on.

My passion is to help people and make a difference in their lives so working with the wonderful team at the Longevity Wellness Centre is the perfect job for me.

I also volunteer at Radio Lolli Pop at PMH Perth Children’s Hospital. I get to play games, read books and make the sick children laugh.

Hobbies and activities: I love to keep fit playing soccer, tennis, squash and ten pin bowling. Bike riding, fishing, walking, reading and gardening are some of the activities I enjoy.
