Introducing Dr. Josh Freedman

Dr. Josh Dr. Josh Freedman and his lovely family

Hi, my name is Josh Freedman.

Kirsten, Benjamin, Sophia and I are thrilled to be living in Perth after relocating from Sydney 2 years ago. 

I come to Perth with both locum and private practice experience in Sydney.  I believe that health is amongst our most valuable possessions not to be taken for granted.  Health is an intrinsic part of any human body with a properly functioning nervous system.   

From the early age of nine I knew my path in life would lead to hands-on therapy.  I was an avid massage therapist at twelve and knew my career and dedication lay in helping people.  By age sixteen, I had failed to discover a profession with a caring, focused, and dedicated attitude.  Until a friend recommended I see a chiropractor.  I had never been to a chiropractor and felt nervous just walking into the Doctor’s office.  From that day on I felt refreshed, vitalized, and knew my body was working at its best.  Ten years later, I graduated from Macquarie University, Sydney with a Masters of Chiropractic Science.  My chiropractic degree was based on a strong medical science degree learning the intricacies, variety, and amazement of the human body with my fellow medical doctors.

I have particular interest in chiropractic pregnancy and paediatrics (children), having just been through the entire process all over again, with my wife Kirsten giving birth to our second child Sophia in 2009.  I now have an even greater understanding of the stresses and strains placed on both mother and baby from conception through contraction and beyond.  I am passionate in getting kid’s spines checked and helping them achieve their inborn potential.

Away from the chiropractic table I also enjoy many sports including cricket, golf, footy, tennis, soccer, and athletics. 

Chiropractic has always surprised me by the amazing results that people see during their care.  I was once a sceptic too! From people with lots of symptoms, to those wanting to reach peak fitness, or people that start off a little cynical, when someone responds to treatment, it is always highly rewarding.  But the most enjoyable part of my job is maintaining people’s health and allowing them to do the things that they love doing. 

Thanks for visiting our site. I hope to meet you in person and find out how chiropractic may be able to help you. Give our office a call to find out more or to book an appointment.

Dr. Mike Asks some important questions of interest to South Perth residents - Chiropractor South Perth Dr. Mike Asks...

Do chiropractors prescribe medications for the pain?
No. Chiropractic is a drug-free approach to better health. Instead, we rely on natural methods. We can show you how to use ice to control pain. When properly applied, ice can have an analgesic effect without the unwanted and sometimes dangerous effects of pain medications.
What's a side effect?
It may sound like a bonus; something extra, but chiropractors know it should more accurately called an "unintended effect," and "unwanted effect" or in some cases an "adverse effect." A pill can't come close to matching your body's ability to create and deliver the essential compounds it needs. That's when it's important to make sure your nervous system is working correctly—the purpose of chiropractic care!
