Who is Dr Jake Currie?

Hey, I'm Jake.

Growing up, I was always fascinated by the human body. I spent all my pocket money on a series of books called How My Body Works. I always knew I wanted to study the body and help people heal.

In high school, I broke my lumbar spine playing Aussie Rules football. I spent a year on the sidelines as my dreams of playing professionally slowly slipped away. The medical doctors didn't have much to offer me except heavy pain medication, which never felt like a solution.

Then a family friend recommended I see a local chiropractor. He got me back on the football field and playing sport again. That's what prompted me to study chiropractic.

But even though my back had "healed", around three times a year it would flare up to the point where I could barely get out of bed.

Physical treatment alone wasn't enough.

That led me to study how the mind and body work together. Why some people with perfectly normal scans have debilitating pain. Why some people still have pain months, or even years, after an injury.

Since then, I've developed Pain Rewired, an approach for people who are still struggling with persistent pain or regular flare-ups. I've worked with clients all over the world through my online programs, and I still work in my chiropractic clinic.
