Hi, I'm Dr Dani Nelson. I qualified as a Doctor of Chiropractic in 2011 at the Durban University of Technology and went on to pursue my Masters in Chiropractic Paediatrics. My passion for family wellness led me to study further techniques in the field, and I completed training courses in the Chiropractic technique of Neuroimpulse Protocol both locally and abroad in Australia and Malaysia.
Through my journey in private practice over the last 14 years I have seen intimately the need for a holistic approach to the body in achieving balance, and to addressing it on all levels; physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.
In 2021 I trained as a Doula through The Mama Bamba Way. As much as the teaching is focused around pregnancy, birth and postpartum care, the role of a doula is ultimately to hold space, and in that, allow the wisdom from within to emerge. The Doula training has been a valuable addition to my practice in the way I am able to listen to, to see, and to work with clients in every way. For pregnancy and pediatric patients it has brought an amazing depth of both knowledge and experience to my work.
In 2022 I embarked on my dream of training as a Specialised Kinesiologist, to enable me to offer even deeper support to clients in the level of care I give.
Alongside my Chiropractic experience and skills, and growing Kinesiology toolbox, I have trained in Breathwork and Yoga Nidra facilitation, and find both are a wonderful addition to support deeper healing in my practice and the ability to share tools of embodiment, awareness, and continued care for the mind, body, and soul of those I work with.

Chiropractic concerns itself with the inborn intelligence of the body. This intelligence is controlled by your brain and nervous system. Instructions are sent via your nervous system to the cells and organs of the body, controlling all functions from respiration, digestion, and growth, to the immune responses, as well as all of your thoughts, concentration, energy and quality of sleep.
Have you ever wondered, when you cut your finger with a tiny paper cut, how your body orchestrates the healing process? Or even how a new-born baby knows instinctively how to suckle for food? Our inborn intelligence operates with such perfection that most of us are completely oblivious to it! That is of course, until your body is unable to continue adapting due to the physical, chemical and emotional stressors we place on it. These stressors lead to stress on our nervous system which causes an interference in communication throughout our nervous system, and therefore our body’s functions.
A Chiropractor will determine and identify the presence of nerve interference on the body, and using specific adjustments will assist the body to recreate bodily order. By addressing the nervous system, Chiropractors work with core issues of health, rather than just looking at signs of illness and sickness. Improving the level of functioning of your spine and nervous system. Chiropractic therefore promotes natural function and potential, helping the body to function at its best and optimising its wellbeing!
Chiropractors trust in the innate intelligence of the body. By improving the level of function of your spine and nervous system, doctors of chiropractic help to optimise your wellbeing and can guide you and your family towards healthy, proactive life choices.

As a gentle Chiropractor and Doula, I have a passion and vast experience in supporting pregnancies, paediatrics, childhood development and family health. In paediatrics, my passion is to assist in maintaining ideal neurodevelopmental progress in the infant, toddler and child. This allows for optimal development from birth and throughout the vital developing years, enhancing your child's ability to grow physically, mentally and emotionally, and thrive well into life. A child's nervous system plays an essential role in their social, emotional and physical development and through focused Chiropractic care we can help children into a more regulated and connected state of being. Using a gentle Neuro Impulse technique (NIP), which is a highly focused neurological adjustment, it allows for minimal input/pressure to effect maximum sustained change on the nervous system.
With wellness orientated healthcare in mind there are key developmental stages in paediatrics where we would encourage a check-up:
Paediatrics: 2weeks, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 4.5 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months and every 6 months thereafter.
During times of increased physical, emotional and mental loads more regular check ups are highly recommended for support during these times of increased stress.

The Neuro Impulse Protocol Technique, NIP, is a neurologically focused Chiropractic technique. NIP is a system of full body analysis and treatment to determine the function of the nervous system and correct that function without force. In order to interpret the function of the nervous system a strict protocol and order of examination must be followed. Remember that the nervous system is constantly receiving messages from the body and from that information it then controls the response it sends out into the body. Think of your brain as being like a computer – if you change the input to the computer that will change the output. It is the same for your body; if you change the input to your brain through messages of pain or loss of movement from part of the body, this will change the way your brain controls the body. Perhaps you may start to limp, have a change in posture, or have a headache; this makes you susceptible to more aches and pains. The aim of NIP is to normalize the input to your brain and therefore the output.
The primary intent of NIP is to progressively reduce abnormal tension throughout the entire system, to release patterns of dysfunction. NIP corrects these problems of increased or decreased tone by normalizing the function of the nerve, cord, and brain.
NIP is referred to as a ‘tonal technique’ because its intent is to normalise the natural tone held in the nervous system. Imagine that your nervous system has a volume control — if you turn the volume up too much it causes distortion — this distorted function in the nervous system can and does manifest as musculoskeletal stress and pain, internal organ dysfunction and diminished immune response. Similar inappropriate responses are also seen when the volume is set too low. When the volume is set wrongly the nervous system sends distorted messages to the body, adversely affecting tone. The result is sluggish body function with a slowing of normal responses. The intention of NIP is to support the body in obtaining an optimal balance.
