Dr Kim Bianca Castelo Branco
I was born in South Africa and graduated with a Masters Degree in Chiropractic (CUM
LAUDE) from the University of Johannesburg. After graduation, I stayed in South Africa
and practiced for 8 years in a family and sport-based practice, caring for a variety of
people of all ages, including infants, pregnant families and athletes. I also provided
chiropractic care for underprivileged communities near Johannesburg, which had limited
access to healthcare.
I am currently a registered chiropractor in Canada, Australia and South Africa after
completing national board exams for all 3 countries.
I provide a holistic approach to chiropractic care that focuses on wellness and
prevention. I have a gentle, hands-on approach that utilizes manual chiropractic and
instrument-assisted techniques (diversified and Activator techniques respectively) to
help you improve your body at every stage of life. For instance, I can focus on pain-
relief, posture-care, and/or maintenance and wellness care to respect your health goals.
I am also trained and certified to provide the Webster technique, which is known to help
optimize pelvic alignment. Many pregnant families will see me for this technique for
before, during and after pregnancy. I have also completed further studies into pediatric
care. I have also completed the International Certificate in Sport Chiropractic (ICSC)
and I am a certified FAKTR Rehab Provider (Functional and Kinetic Treatment with
Rehab). I am a member of the International Chiropractic Paediatric Association (ICPA)
and the International Federation of Sport Chiropractic (FICS).
I have a passion to help all ages embrace their full potential to heal and live the healthy
life that they deserve! I want to help empower you to discover the cause and to fix the
underlying cause of your health concerns, increase the functioning of your body and
enhance your adaptability to stress.
