Greensborough Chiropractor, Joel Shambrook

Dr Joel Shambrook (Chiropractor

At the age of 11 my father decided to change careers and move our whole family to the US so he could study Chiropractic.  Growing up around the college in Iowa was a great experience and planted the seed that I might also want to do the same.  We then went on an adventure to Argentina where I gained experience as an a chiropractic assistant recording notes while Dad performed the examination.  He was the only chiropractor in the country at the time and worked in conjunction with an orthopedic surgeon in private practice.  6 years later I began my studies at RMIT University graduating in 2008.

Dr Joel’s practice interests include sports and work injuries, nutrition and rehabilitation. He has an interest in extremity conditions (shoulder, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles) and is experienced in a range of manual (hands-on), low force and massage techniques and is a certified Activator Methods practitioner.

Chiropractic Education

Dr. Joel graduated from RMIT University in 2008 after completing a Bachelor of Applied Science and a Masters of Clinical Chiropractic.  His Masters Research study studied the effects of chiropractic treatment on patient’s health and wellbeing.
