Jake Smith completed his Bachelor of Health Science / Bachelor of Applied Science (Chiropractic) at RMIT University in Melbourne. During his time at uni Jake discovered his passion for rehabilitative therapies by undertaking his own rehabilitation after hip surgery.
Since graduating from university, Jake has undertaken further education, completing the International Federation of Sports Chiropractic’s ICSC program and the Australian Strength and Conditioning Association’s Level 1 coaching program to broaden his skills to not only work alongside athletes but to understand the depth of their training and give them tailored treatment plans specific to their goals.
Understanding the need for a multi-modal approach, he incorporates a range of treatment options that include functional movement assessments, active release therapies, dry needling, fascial abrasion techniques, and rehabilitation exercises to help his patients overcome injury and move pain-free.
Jake began practice in rural South Australia and quickly established himself as the go-to musculoskeletal therapist. He worked with all forms of athletes from ultra marathon runners, cross fitters, surf life saving events and therapist to multiple athletic and sporting teams. With his range of knowledge, he decided to move to the big city of Brisbane and further grow his career among the Elite Health and Performance community.
Jake breathes all things sport and competition. Growing up, he liked to watch and have a go at almost anything he could. Today he likes to regularly train at the gym whilst also competitively playing golf, cricket and having a ride around some of the local mountain bike trails.
