Dr Quyen Trinh has been a Chiropractor for over 17 years, she joined the team back in 2007 and has recently taken over running Hawker Chiropractic.
While finishing her Bachelor of Science at UNSW, she was accepted into an honours program at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, undertaking cutting edge research into novel genes associated to heart development. During a captivating and fulfilling year immersed in scientific research, a chance encounter saw her research take a back seat when introduced to Chiropractic from which she never turned back, and after a total of seven years as a “professional student” Dr Quyen graduated from Macquarie University in 2003 with her Masters of Chiropractic.
Dr Quyen is passionate about empowering her patients to take control of their health and enabling them to reaching the optimal health through the removal of restrictions, whether biomechanical, mental of physiological.
Dr Quyen understands that the feet are the foundation of the spine, and that good posture, alignment and vitality starts from the feet, because “the footbone’s connected to the head bone” or so Dr Knickerbocker tells us…
Growing up with a (seriously) large extended family, Dr Quyen has a unique gift for connecting with people of all ages, from those just learning to walk, through to those who might moan and groan every step (yes you grandma).
Having experienced the highs and lows of pregnancy and raising three rambunctious bundles of energy, Dr Quyen has a passion for advocating and educating women through their pregnancy, birth and beyond.
In her spare time Dr Quyen loves spending time with her husband and children, cooking, hiking the native Canberra bushland, crafting, and a few board games here and there, Cluedo anyone?
