Chiropractic, Remedial Massage & Traditional Acupuncture

My name is Cade Sutherland and I am the owner of North Lakes Chiropractic. Chiropractic has been a deep interest and passion of mine since I was first exposed to it as a child. The immediate benefits I felt from a a spinal adjustment left me knowing that this art was something I wanted to learn and share with others, assisting them to live better, healthier lives.

I graduated from the Macquarie University in 2004 with a Masters in Chiropractic, and was humbled to receive the prestigeous Chiropractic Association Of Australia National Graduate of the Year Award, as well as the Vice Chancellor’s Award for Academic Skills and Leadership. Soon after graduating, I traveled to the UK, opening my own practices and treating a range of different conditions and people. After some years in Scotland, I took my knowledge, experience (and my beautiful Scottish wife) back to Australia to continue spreading the benefits of Chiropractic.

The results that I have seen in my career motivate and inspire me to educate anyone that suffers with pain and discomfort about the invaluable assistance that Chiropractic can offer them. Long-term results and resolution is what I am interested in for my patients, and seeing their lives improve due to this holistic approach makes me truly content.

Chiropractic is for everyone, young and old, and I take it upon myself to work with several different techniques to work with your body and your needs, so that you can feel your best. I spend a lot of time creating treatment plans for each and every patient, assisting them with postural exercises and monitoring so that they can strengthen and tone the right muscles to maintain beautiful posture and reduce pain. This means my patients understand causative factors to their pain, which I think is very important in long term pain management.

I am so delighted to be able to offer my skills to you, and I look forward to seeing you at North Lakes Chiropractic.

Hello! My name is Dr Adrian (B.Chiro).

I love being part of the North Lakes Chiropractic team and providing Chiropractic care to the North Lakes community.

My own personal Chiropractic journey started at age nineteen, following a rugby injury. After sustaining a concussion and a severe sprain/strain in my neck I realized what a difference Chiropractic Care can make to recovery and a sense of wellness. That was the point that I realised that I wanted to support and empower others to get their body functioning at its best, in order to thrive in life.

I was born and raised in Johannesburg, and moved to Auckland when I was 24. After years as a personal trainer, I embarked on the journey to become a Doctor of Chiropractic at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic, and have never looked back. I am passionate about family care and love helping people of all ages to feel better, brighter, and more capable to live their best lives. Although I respect that the body is rather complex, I believe that health is rather simple – think positive, eat well and move often. It’s the big picture approach to living a healthy holistic lifestyle that drew me to a career in Chiropractic.

I love playing all sports, especially rugby, and participating in triathlons has become one of my favourite hobbies. I have competed in Ironman and the New Zealand Coast to Coast events (to name a few), and love the physical and mental challenges that these events present.

My wonderful wife Cara (an Occupational Therapist) and I, along with our two kids Dakota (7) and Kieran (2), really enjoy the many adventures associated with living in Queensland .

Hi I am Christine a remedial massage therapist here at Northlakes Chiropractic. I have been a massage therapist for about 5 years now and absolutely love my job. My journey started in 2014 when I was working in a supermarket and had constant back pain, I was exploring different therapies to try and get some relief. I just loved the effect of massage so much that I wanted to learn more and help other people. I started out studying the diploma of traditional Chinese remedial massage at the Institute of Applied Science, graduating in 2016. I started up my own business and was enjoying working but felt that I needed to learn more so in 2018 I went on to do the diploma of remedial massage at Q Academy, graduating in 2019. I am so glad I did it because I grew as a therapist so much in my time there. My studies have certainly not ended there, I am always doing more short courses, reading and researching more, the human body is amazing, complicated and very interesting.
At home I am a proud Mum to 2 teenagers, a wife and a dog mum. I love spending time with my family, going to the beach, riding dirt bikes, camping, fishing or just chilling at home with a good movie or Netflix series.
