His approach combines the latest chiropractic techniques with a deep understanding of holistic wellness, ensuring adjustments are tailored to meet your specific needs.
When not in the clinic, Dr Ihaia enjoys spending time with his two daughters, keeping active and getting to the beach as much as possible.
Dr Tamzin Motion, B. Chiro, B. AppSci (Sports Nutrition), MNZCA
Dr Tamzin has dual qualifications in chiropractic and sports nutrition, offering a unique perspective on practice member care and blending her interests in the benefits of movement, wellness, and nutrition for patients of all ages.
A proud advocate for women’s health, and a mum of two daughters, Dr Tamzin has a particular focus on providing children’s and pregnancy chiropractic, empowering mothers and families to thrive. Currently on leave until February 2025, we eagerly anticipate her return to the practice soon.
Jazmin Williams, Chiropractic Assistant (CA)
Jazmin is the friendly face that greets you when you arrive at Chiropractic First. As a Chiropractic Assistant, she ensures every practice member feels welcomed and cared for, managing appointments, assisting with practice member needs, and keeping the practice running smoothly.
Jazmin completed a Certificate of Health Science at the University of Auckland and is a strong advocate for healthy lifestyles and Hauora Māori. Her positive energy and dedication make her an essential part of our team.
Kirsty Etches, Chiropractic Assistant (CA)
Kirsty brings a warm, people-first energy to the practice, shaped by a unique mix of creativity, communication, and lived experience. “I was inspired to become a Chiropractic Assistant through a combination of my personal health journey and my background in creative, people-focused fields.”
She recently completed her Bachelor of Performing and Screen Arts at Unitec, alongside a Diploma in Interior Design, including ArchiCAD. Those creative pathways helped Kirsty build confidence, strong communication skills, and a real appreciation for how much a welcoming environment can shape someone’s experience, especially when they’re not feeling their best.
Her interest in holistic healthcare grew through her own health challenges, which led her to explore approaches that focus on root causes rather than just symptoms. Chiropractic care became a meaningful part of supporting Kirsty’s nervous system and overall wellbeing, and it naturally guided her towards a role where she could help others feel comfortable, supported, and empowered as they prioritise their health.
