Chris

Chiropractic Assistant

With over 14 years of dedicated service at Optimal Chiropractic, Chris plays a key role in taking patient histories, performing scans, and assisting the doctors throughout the day to ensure each visit runs smoothly. Her warm, caring nature helps patients feel comfortable from the moment they walk in, and her genuine passion for improving lives is evident in every interaction.

Chris’s journey into chiropractic care began personally – she experienced vertigo and turned to chiropractic for help. “I was nervous at first, not knowing what to expect,” she recalls. “But after care, my vertigo completely disappeared.” That experience gave her a powerful insight into the healing potential of chiropractic and inspired her ongoing passion for the work.

One of the biggest surprises for Chris was learning how much the spine and nervous system influence overall health. She now sees chiropractic not just as a solution for back pain, but as a natural, whole-body and mind approach to wellness. She’s proud to be part of a clinic that’s professional, detail-oriented, and genuinely committed to improving lives.

“What motivates me every day,” Chris shares, “is knowing we’re helping people live better - both for themselves and for their families. I take pride in knowing I’ve played a part in that.”

When she’s not helping patients, Chris enjoys reading, knitting, and catching up with friends. A nature lover at heart, her happy place is walking in the woods, where she finds peace and inspiration. She and her family share their home with a quirky little companion – Vector the robot, a source of endless amusement.

Despite her many talents, Chris freely admits she does not have green fingers – and her houseplants can confirm it! But what always brings a smile to her face is simple: being in nature, surrounded by fresh air and tranquility.

The doctors and staff at Optimal Chiropractic are always super kind and helpful with appointments and making you feel welcome, as soon as you step foot inside the door!

Having had a really bad experience with another person I was very hesitant to sign up with Ben and the team. Also having spent thousands on many other practitioners to fix my lower middle back and neck, at my age this was my last shot . Construction has made me an old man before my time but since having sessions with the team there is light at the end of the tunnel . My neck is now moving more than it has in as far back as I can remember , lower back no issues. I’ve a few more sessions on my neck so I should be heading back to normalcy soon . The staff are amazing and Mary the heart of the team runs a tight ship . Thank you to all from the biggest cynic in Ireland who has been proved wrong !

I first went to Optimal Chiropractic in Ballincollig because I was struggling with back pain. Thankfully, with their care, I no longer suffer from it. My wife had been battling with sciatica for a long time and since coming here regularly, she has also experienced great relief. We now both attend once a month to keep our ailments at bay. The care we receive has been invaluable in helping us stay mobile and active as we age. Visiting always gives us a lift, as Dr. Ben and the whole team are so friendly and welcoming. We are truly grateful for all the care and support we receive at Optimal Chiropractic – they really do keep us going!

I had been having hip and back issues since retiring from playing gaa. It was starting to effect my daily life. The lads at optimal scanned and put together a plan for me and weekly I have seen changes to my daily life. Now have no pain and i am starting back with training again. Couldn’t recommend the team at optimal chiropractic enough!

The team at optimal chiropractic are genuinely awesome people.
My journey with Ben is incredible. Not only unlocking my spine for optimal pain relief and movement. It’s helping me unlock trauma my body has been holding onto. My sleep has improved due to pain reduction, which in turn helps my overall health.
I can’t thank Ben enough for helping me get my life back after being in pain for many years.
Start your journey of healing 🙏 it’s magical ⭐ I was pessimistic as to how this work would actually works. Now from experience. I can honestly say It does!!!!
Highly recommend 😊

I am so glad Dr Ben at Optimal Chiropractic was recommended to me by a friend who is already attending the office. Having suffered with vertigo and hip pain and did not look forward to facing surgery in the future; now my fears are no more thankfully! In general my whole health as improved no end. I got my health back and I learned to live “well”. I am still under regular chiropractic care. I have no hesitation in recommending Optimal Chiropractic indeed I have learned so much with regard to nutrition and exercise my general health is great.

I went to optimal chiropractic out of curiosity in the beginning and ended up finding out things I never knew. I was getting regularly headaches and never linked them to my nervous system but after starting with optimal and learning new things, it helped me understand how things work. It’s been 5 weeks since I last got a headache which has been amazing for me. I would highly recommend going for a visit and all staff members are very friendly and nice.
Christine M.

After a recommendation, visited the clinic with prolonged lower back pain that was inhibiting daily living and beginning to affect work. After being in pain for weeks I seen improvements after one week of regular sessions and back to full mobility after two weeks. The entire team had played a role in my treatment plan and I couldn’t be more grateful. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone else seeking treatment.
