Who We Are
MEET DR. JOSH
Dr Joshua Korten started his journey in Chiropractic over 15 years ago. As a young teen at the time, he was dealing with headaches and migraines 2-3 times every single week. His mom, Judy, would take his whole family for a Chiropractic tune up every few months just because she thought it made sense to deal with all the growth spurts and tumbles that kids or teens can take. However, this didn’t seem to be cutting it for Josh’s teenage symptoms. Eventually Josh went and saw a different Chiropractor who analyzed and measured the structure and angles within his neck. His X-rays weren’t a pretty sight as his neck had lost most of the curve it’s supposed to have and certain parts of his neck were quite misaligned. However, once they started to address these underlying structural problems with specific adjustments, his headaches and migraines quickly became a thing of the past. Soon after, he made the decision to help other people with their headaches, migraines, posture problems, sports injuries, and decreased quality of life as well… by studying to become a Chiropractor!
Dr Josh moved from Canada and studied at Life University in Atlanta, Georgia, USA where he graduated Cum Laude in 2016. He trained in a wide variety of Chiropractic analysis and adjusting techniques while in the states, enabling him to have a large toolbox when it comes to adjusting the spine and optimizing the nervous system. Throughout school he was passionate about helping people with severe spinal problems like scoliosis, herniated discs, reversed neck curves, debilitating migraines, or intense vertigo. He loves helping everyday adults with their posture problems and pain issues. He also has a special interest in optimizing the performance of Crossfit, endurance, or sports athletes, passionately encouraging everyone to embrace their full health potential. When not in the office you can find him enjoying the sunshine and ocean at Saunders Beach, going on hikes with the family, spending time at Green Point Park with his little girl, or working out at Motley Crew Crossfit.
MEET DR. HANNAH KORTEN
Dr Hannah Korten is a Chiropractor with a passion for seeing all people embrace their full potential. Whether it’s newborns, kids, pregnant mamas, young adults, or those a little further along, Dr Hannah uses her skills of gentle adjustments to help you get out of pain, correct your posture, and improve how your body functions and operates at every stage of life. With a special interest in Pediatric and Perinatal Chiropractic, along with several certifications from overseas study in this area, Dr Hannah firmly believes and teaches that “A pregnant Mama’s spine, pelvis and centre of gravity are changing daily as her baby grows inside her! It is a beautiful thing to care for a mom with the art and science of Chiropractic as her body adapts to carrying that child and preparing for birth.”
Dr Hannah completed her Chiropractic training in South Africa at the Durban University of Technology. Her Masters Thesis was in the field of Neurophysiology as she studied and tested the effect of neck adjustments on proprioception, balance and electrical activity of muscles. Dr Hannah then furthered her training in Paediatrics and Pregnancy by attending local seminars hosted by Dr Steve Williams and a dozen or so seminars, while living in North America, from the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA). She also received her Webster Certification during her time abroad in the United States.
