About Us

Dr Tyna Murray (B.HlthSci, M.Chiro),
Chiropractor & Owner Realign Health

My Chiropractic experience began very early in life.  When my mother was pregnant with me, she experienced low back pain, and turned to Chiropractic for a drug free solution. From then on, I received regular chiropractic check ups – especially when challenging myself on the sporting field.

After high school I completed a 3 year Bachelor of Health Science (majoring in Neuroscience, Pathology and Physiology) at Adelaide University. From Adelaide I then moved to Sydney to complete my Master of Chiropractic at Macquarie University.

After university I worked as a locum and in private practice for 6 years.  At this time my now husband and I took a sabbatical to travel, hike and enjoy the sunshine.  We then moved to the south west in 2016 – starting Realign Health and our lives as dairy farmers.

Since then, Realign Health has grown to 3 Chiropractors as has our family – with two little ones to cherish.

As my life has changed my clinical interests diversified.  Traditionally I focused on sport and geriatric care I have transitioned clinically to focus on women’s health.  I am passionate about holding space and honouring the immensity of the matresence process through pregnancy, birth, postpartum and life thereafter.

Dr. Jake Muddle (B.HlthSci, B.AppSci (Chiropractic)

Growing up in Melbourne with a love for sports and the outdoors, Jake discovered his passion for healthcare after observing his grandfather, an Acupuncturist help those around him. Graduating from RMIT with a Bachelor of Health Sciences and Applied Sciences (Chiropractic), his vision is to provide high-quality healthcare to the community to help keep individuals and athletes doing what they love.

 

Working with various athletes in different disciplines he found a specific interest in rehabilitation to optimise their performance and long-term outcomes.  Jake continuously looks to develop and learn new techniques to help assess and diagnose a wide variety of conditions. Peaking interest for Jake is concussion management and its ongoing effects on your nervous system throughout the lifespan, running injuries and load management as well as jaw dysfunction and it’s influence on headache outcomes. He continuously looks to implement passive and active strategies with everyone that crosses his path to empower them to take control of their health.

 

After living and working in Townsville for the past 2 years, Jake is currently slowly travelling around Australia. In that time you can find him looking for some good trails to run, waves to catch and the best coffee in town. He looks forward to helping you and your family reach your health goals whilst Tyna is on maternity leave and beyond.
