About us
Pinnacle Chiropractic provides an inside-out approach to healthcare, problem-solving to address the root cause of a health issue rather than simply treating the symptoms present. We use a holistic range of Chiropractic techniques that restore nervous system functionality. Our approach to care enables your body to heal itself so that you can live an active lifestyle and operate at peak performance, free from pain and limitation.
Our Story
As a husband and wife team who are dedicated to bringing our passion for life, sport, activities and family to our work, we founded the Pinnacle Chiropractic clinic to bring a fresh and unique perspective to healthcare for the Beachlands, Maraetai, Whitford and Clevedon community.
When we started out in practice, we both moved to Nelson and took over a well-established Chiropractic Clinic where we practiced for several years before making the move back to Auckland to open Pinnacle Chiropractic. After Chelsey moved up to Auckland to get things started, lockdown hit and meant the practice opening was delayed, however we were able to open in January 2022 to make a great year even better.
For us, Pinnacle Chiropractic has been years in the making. It’s been the dream we finally get to bring to life. We have enjoyed the journey so far, and we are excited to continue the journey serving our community in the Pohutukawa Coast.
Our purpose is to challenge the role of traditional medicine and provide the Pohutukawa Coast community a fresh perspective and natural approach to healthcare that looks to the cause rather than the symptoms per se.
At the Pinnacle Chiropractic clinic, we want to bring change to people’s lives. We want to help reduce the everyday limitations preventing people from achieving their goals or living their lives to the fullest. We help to enable your body to heal itself and operate at your peak performance through using a holistic range of Chiropractic techniques all helping to restore nervous system functionality.
Pinnacle Chiropractic provides an inside out approach to healthcare, problem solving to address the root cause rather than simply treating the symptoms present. Chiropractic is built on the philosophy that the body is interconnected, with the spine housing and protecting the central nervous system. Tension, misalignment, or a subluxation of the spine can interfere with the flow of information along your nerves, which in turn can affect a variety of bodily functions, presenting as symptoms. Identifying and correcting vertebral subluxations can reduce symptoms and improve overall bodily function. Symptoms are treated as clues as to misalignments, with many patients reporting a reduction in aches, pains, and other symptoms with regular chiropractic adjustments.
At Pinnacle Chiropractic we are always looking for ways to best serve our community and provide the best services we can. In doing so, we have expanded and brought on Jaslyn McQueen who is an Acupuncturist who brings a wealth of knowledge with her and another modality to help those in our community be the best version of themselves.

Jaslyn McQueen
BHSc, AcNZ, CMCNZ
Acupuncturist
Born in Wellington New Zealand, Jaslyn was raised in Sydney Australia where her love for Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture began. As a past dancer and former graduate of The McDonald College and Brent Street Performing Arts, Jaslyn has always had a passion for human anatomy and physiology, and a wide interest in the body’s natural healing capabilities.
Jaslyn was introduced to Acupuncture and saw its benefits when a family member was critically ill and sought alternative medical treatment. After witnessing the week-by-week improvement on one’s physical and emotional state, this led her to complete a Bachelor of Health Science (Acupuncture) at The New Zealand School of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Jaslyn loves being part of our beautiful Pohutukawa Coast community and enjoys all forms of dance, theatre, sports, travel, and her newfound love, ice skating! Although natural health is her passion, her true love of this world is her family and raising her four boys.
Jaslyn endeavors to help and care for individual’s health needs and improve patient’s quality of life through her chosen profession of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
