Meet Dr Bryan Sturdy (Chiropractor)
Hi, I’m Dr Bryan. I’m a born-and-bred Mackay local and grew up in a fishing, camping and hunting family. I completed my Bachelor of Science (Chiropractic) and Master of Clinical Chiropractic in April 2026 at CQUniversity’s Mackay campus. While completing my chiropractic studies, I also worked at a local engineering company, giving me firsthand experience of the physical demands, long hours and hard work that come with hands-on industries.
What matters most to me is being open, honest and genuinely invested in helping people. I believe in taking the time to listen, understand what’s important to each person and work alongside them to achieve their health and movement goals. I’m passionate about health and wellness and enjoy helping people better understand their bodies and what they can do to move, feel and live at their best.
Why I Became a Chiropractor
My own experience with chiropractic began when I was 12 years old, when I developed severe back pain and postural issues. Discovering chiropractic had a profound impact on my life and ultimately inspired me to pursue it as a career.
That experience shaped the way I think about healthcare. It taught me the importance of listening to the individual, understanding the factors that may be contributing to their concerns and taking a personalised approach to care rather than simply focusing on symptoms.
Who I Love Helping
While I enjoy helping people from all walks of life, I have a particular passion for working with blue-collar workers. Having worked in an engineering environment while putting myself through university, I understand that these jobs can be physically demanding and often involve long days on the tools, repetitive tasks, shift work and plenty of wear and tear on the body.
Whether you’re working in engineering, mining, farming, construction, driving or another hands-on occupation, I get that your body is an important part of how you earn a living. I enjoy helping people stay active, keep doing the things they love and look after their bodies so they can continue doing what matters to them.
I also love caring for the whole family, from children through to grandparents. I believe good health and the ability to stay active are important at every stage of life.
Away From the Practice
Outside the clinic, I enjoy staying active through regular training and playing soccer. My wife and I love spending time outdoors, camping and exploring the beautiful Mackay and Whitsunday region.
I also come from a family of keen fishermen, so whenever I get the chance, you’ll usually find me out on the water.
Let’s Get You Moving
I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to move well, stay active and get the most out of life. I look forward to getting to know you, understanding what’s important to you and helping you work towards your health goals.
