Nicholas Armitage

Empowering your health and well-being with expert Chiropractic care

Education

After completing a tertiary business qualification in Brisbane, Nicholas decided to follow in the footsteps of other family members and embark on a Chiropractic education. He enrolled in a 5 year Doctor of Chiropractic program at the world renowned Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, USA. He then began his postgraduate education practicing alongside some of the most highly regarded chiropractors in the United States, in Chicago, Illinois. At the completion of his postgraduate studies, Nicholas returned to Australia and established Hawthorne Chiropractic in 2002.

My Story

When I was 4 years old, I was put in a wheelchair. I had a blood supply problem to the top of my thigh bone and it was wearing away, causing me extreme pain and difficulty walking.

After 2 years my medical doctors allowed me to come out of my wheelchair but they advised my parents to ‘pack me in cotton wool’. I was to avoid vigorous activities and told I would likely be back in my wheelchair permanently by the age of 30.

My Aunt and Uncle had since trained as Doctors of Chiropractic and placed me under their expert care. Soon my hip and long standing stomach aches disappeared. Before long I felt well again and regained full function of my bad left leg.

After commencing chiropractic care I was told I could play whatever sport I wanted! I became the under 15’s Queensland Table Tennis Champion and was awarded honours as one of the top sportspersons at my school. This was truly a miracle for me. Read my story by visiting www.expectamiracle.com

I was so impressed with chiropractic that I too chose it as a profession. I am now able to help people of all walks of life, and consistently have a positive effect on their lives.
