Chiropractor in Ryde

One of the things Dr Antra realised as an undergrad in his Medical Science degree, was that the conventional health care model was missing something. After watching his family and relatives suffer life-long chronic pain, He was naturally drawn towards becoming a chiropractor, which led him to studying his Chiropactic degree at Sydney’s Macquarie University. 

As he made his journey, learning the science and art of chiropractic, Dr Antra was awakened to the power and impact chiropractic has on people’s health and wellbeing – how activating a patient’s nervous system can help them thrive and achieve their health goals. 

Dr Antra has an holistic approach, and is passionate about empowering his patients with the knowledge to live the healthiest lifestyle choices possible. 

When he’s not in the office, Antra enjoys bushwalking, canoeing, rock climbing, swimming, practicing yoga or exploring new and exciting places. He loves to join local clubs, teams and meeting new people. A lifelong Ryde local, Dr Antra is proud to take care of the members of his local community.

Not all chiropractors are the same. Traditional chiropractic care focuses on correcting misalignments in the spine through manipulations of the vertebral joints.

In recent years, there has been a shift in the focus of chiropractors to not only treat problems of the spine, but also treat and manage injuries involving other joints of the body (i.e. hips, knees, feet and shoulders, etc.) and more importantly we have taking an integrative approach towards healing, addressing not only the physical but also the emotional and chemical components of health both individually and as a whole.

Chiropractic care is widely recognised as a safe and effective form of therapy for a wide range of neuromusculoskeletal conditions. When complemented with numerous techniques that range from functional and applied neurology, to soft tissue techniques like Active Release Technique (ART), remedial massage and exercise rehabilitation, we have a highly effective means to restore optimal movement, function and strength to the body and most importantly, removing pain from the neuro-musculoskeletal system.

Functional Neurological Chiropractic refers to the use of a brain based approach with addition of other modalities to address your problem. This allows for a multimodal approach to your problem, therefore it gives you a much better chance of recovery.
