Dr Bernie Haberman – Chiropractor
Hi I’m Dr Bernie,
I love to work with people who are looking to take charge of their health, who are tired of the restrictions their current symptoms (e.g. back pain, headaches, low energy, etc.) are having on their lives and want to achieve the greatest health and vitality they can.
I am most inspired when teaching and delivering the best chiropractic care I can. I am a ‘forever’ learner, continually attending seminars, reading books and listening to podcasts of the many great ‘Health Warriors’ we have. I love the certainty it creates in me and more importantly those that visit our practice.
My journey began 1996 as a Remedial Massage Therapist and then later a Myotherapist . I worked in private practice here and abroad but also had the opportunity to work with some great athletes (and people), tennis player Alicia Molik, Olympic Gold Medallist Alisa Camplin and over 10 years with my beloved Collingwood Football Club (don’t hold it against me).
Chiropractic was already a huge part of my life, something I had come to in my late teens to help my own (very minor) football career. Inspired over the years from my personal success and observing the amazing results and satisfaction my wife Dr Vanessa was experiencing I headed back to school aged 35 years and completed 5 years of study graduating from ‘chiropractic’s first school in Australia’ RMIT in Melbourne.
Today I am co-owner of Revive Chiropractic with my wife Dr Vanessa which we launched in 2004. We have 2 fabulous kids (well, most of time) and live on a beautiful property in the Macedon Ranges. We strive to live the life we teach, by making sure we eat well (we are blessed to have our own orchard, large veggie patch and 7 chooks), move a lot (I now love CrossFit), look to build positive relationships and by keeping our spine and nervous system healthy.
My love for teaching has taken me into coaching football, after 25 years of playing Australian Rules I have coached senior football on and off for the last 9 years . Currently coaching Bendigo club, Golden Square, I am excited and grateful for the opportunity of not only trying to help young men become better players, but hopefully, greater and more rounded humans.
My practice philosophy is ‘Give for the sake of giving, serve for the sake of serving and love for the sake of loving’.
Want to know more, here is some random stuff about me:
— I am a Harry Potter tragic – I’ve read all the books at least 3 times each.
— I have a great love of Test match cricket and can easily sit and watch for all 5 days – I’ve only missed one Test in Melbourne since 1982.
— My favourite album of all-time is ‘Appetite For Destruction’ by Guns’ n Roses, still listen to it regularly over 30 years later.
— I have travelled through 28 different countries – Croatia & Turkey being my favourites!
