UC 411: From Struggle to Strength: Chiropractic, Family & Functional Movement with Dr Tim Leeming


Listen Later

In this raw and inspiring episode, we sit down with Dr Tim Leeming, chiropractor, sports nutritionist, and co-founder of Being Chiropractic in Gympie, QLD. Tim shares his incredible journey — from his early days as an athlete and movement coach to the traumatic birth of his first daughter, Sage, which completely reshaped his purpose and approach to health.

Alongside his wife, Dr Casie Leeming, Tim has since travelled the world studying with leading chiropractors and paediatric neurological experts. Now, as a passionate practitioner and father of two, he brings a deeply personal lens to his work, helping families and individuals reconnect to their nervous systems, their bodies, and their natural rhythms through chiropractic care and simple, intentional movement.
