Meet Dr Victoria Shoemaker (Chiropractor)
Dr Victoria brings a thoughtful and individualised approach to chiropractic care. A graduate of the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College, she was inspired to pursue the profession after seeing the positive impact chiropractic care had on her mother. This early experience shaped her appreciation for how chiropractic can play a role in supporting people’s health.
Building Meaningful Connections
Early in her training, Dr Victoria learned the value of taking time to listen and understand each person’s unique story. What drives her most today is building meaningful connections with patients.
I love getting to know people beyond their initial concerns. We are all complex beings, and it often takes a multifaceted approach to help individuals identify and work towards their health goals.
She aims to ensure every new patient feels relaxed and at ease from their very first visit. Her consultations are patient-led, allowing individuals to share at their own pace.
A Holistic Perspective on Care
Dr Victoria encourages movement and regularly highlights its importance in day-to-day life. She believes that finding ways to move comfortably and consistently can contribute to long-term wellbeing.
Over the years, her practice has evolved to consider how lifestyle factors, including stress, can influence physical health. She has further training in Sacro-Occipital Technique, Activator Methods, Advanced Dry Needling, and Active Release Technique.
Beyond the Clinic
Outside the practice, Dr Victoria enjoys running, swimming, and hiking long distances – or relaxing with a good book and coffee by the river. She also loves jigsaw puzzles, chatting with friends, and spending time with her three “absolutely amazing” teenage children. “I’m loving this stage of their lives; watching them forge their own paths, learning from their mistakes and experiencing all that is on offer to them. They make me laugh every day.”
