Meet Dr. Brad Sickler
Chiropractor
Warm, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in helping people feel their best, Dr Brad brings more than just knowledge to the practice—he brings heart.
His interest in chiropractic began early, sparked by watching his dad recover from severe back pain without surgery. “As a 10-year-old, seeing my dad crawl from bed to the toilet—and then gradually get better through chiropractic care—left a big impression,” Brad shares. “That moment set everything in motion.”
Moving from the Farm to Family Practice
Brad studied anatomy at the University of Otago before completing his chiropractic degree in Auckland. Since graduating in 2016, he’s continued to grow his knowledge with advanced training in SOT® techniques, cranials, Network Spinal, and paediatric care. He also regularly participates in cultural studies, including Samoan language and EFKS church life with his wife’s family—a big part of his world outside the practice.
Why He Loves What He Does
“For me, it’s the people,” he says. “The most fulfilling part of my work is seeing someone feel lighter, more mobile, or simply more hopeful after a visit. I get a buzz when patients come back saying, ‘Hey, that thing I was struggling with—it’s better!'”
Brad believes deeply in the ripple effect of well-being. When one person feels better, that energy touches their family, friends, and the wider community. That’s why he sees each adjustment as more than just a physical shift—it’s an opportunity to restore connection.
OUR SERVICES
Life Outside the Practice
When he’s not adjusting spines, you’ll find Brad sharing good food with friends and whānau, supporting church events, or heading out for a walk in the wind (something Wellington delivers in abundance). He also prioritises his own chiropractic care to stay balanced—and encourages all his patients to do so.
Looking Ahead to Your Future Wellness
Whether you’re coming in for the first time or returning to continue care, Brad’s here to listen, guide, and support you. “Everyone has a story,” he says. “And when we listen to those stories, amazing things happen.”
Ngā mihi nui, Ia manuia—Brad
