Dr. Michael Bryant, Chiropractic (USA) 

Before pursuing his doctoral studies in Chiropractic, Dr. Bryant attained a degree in molecular biology/pre-medicine at the renowned University of Michigan. After graduation, he spent a brief period of time working in the fields of research and forensics. It was during this time that Dr. Bryant quickly realized many of the imperfections of traditional medicine first-hand, and decided that there must be a better way to promote health and well-being within others.

Having visited a Chiropractor during his adolescence, he decided to spend some time observing and speaking with different Chiropractors and their patients in order to learn more about the profession. Quickly he saw the special bond between doctors of Chiropractic and their patients, as well as the wide range of conditions that Chiropractic patients were coming in with and having amazing results. Once Dr. Bryant understood the “big idea” in that Chiropractors are experts at looking for and removing sources of interference in the body’s ability to heal and regulate itself, he was enthralled. Shortly thereafter he chose to pursue his doctorate degree in Chiropractic, and the rest is history as they say.

Dr. Bryant excelled in his studies while in Chiropractic school, graduating Summa Cum Laude (with highest honors) and receiving several other awards; as well as pursuing advanced, post-graduate studies in subjects such as spinal disc injuries, postural rehabilitation, extremities and athletics. He was selected to train under world-renowned Chiropractors outside of Atlanta, Georgia, and had the opportunity to work with elite level athletes while finishing his internships. Dr. Bryant also had the opportunity to complete an internship in neurological Chiropractic, and has experience working with children and adults with conditions such as ADD/ADHD, insomnia, anxiety, depression, fibromyalgia, and others.

Dr. Bryant’s greatest passion, however, is educating his patients on how their body works, and empowering every patient with the knowledge and ability to improve their own health. This means going beyond whatever symptoms a patient may be currently experiencing, and helping them to understand the root causes of their problems which prevents them from reaching their own level of optimum health and wellness. Dr. Bryant utilizes multiple techniques which are safe and effective for every age and body type, as he helps you on your journey towards greater health.

Dr George Ellis, B.Chiro (NZ)

Dr George Ellis studied at Otago University and the New Zealand College of Chiropractic and graduated with both the Adjuster Award and the John Nolan Award for Excellence in Diagnostic Imaging.

He enjoys helping the many office workers, housewives and retirees to overcome their discomforts, and has a special interest in non-surgical care for disc problems and chronic back pain.

Dr George first visited a chiropractor when he was fourteen because of severe lower back pain that had failed to improve for six months and was stopping him from playing the sports he loved and even attending school. After trying many other therapies, with limited success, he was referred by a friend to see his local chiropractor. The results were so dramatic that he eventually decided to study chiropractic to help more people in his situation get their lives back.

He practiced in his home town of Tauranga in New Zealand before traveling through Europe and has now relocated to Singapore with his fiancée. He enjoys traveling to new places and experiencing new cultures first hand and is also a keen surfer, kayaker and skier. 

Drs.Van Norman, Bryant and Ellis use a "whole person approach". This approach to wellness means looking for underlying causes of any disturbance or disruption (which may or may not be causing symptoms at the time) and make whatever interventions and lifestyle adjustments that would optimize the conditions for normal function. Using this unique approach, our doctors are able to help you to accelerate and/or maintain your journey to good health.
