Meet Dr. David Smith, DC
Getting Natural Help for Sleep, Pain and More
In 1999, while completing practical work toward a technology degree, David Smith experienced a severe back strain that led him to visit a chiropractor for the first time. That visit proved to be life-changing. Not enjoying his studies and inspired by the enthusiasm of his chiropractor, David soon began to experience the powerful benefits of chiropractic care himself.
“I noticed my memory and concentration improved. I was achieving top grades with far less stress and study. I slept soundly, had more energy, felt more productive, and rarely got sick. I was amazed that something so simple could work so effectively.”
This experience inspired him to complete his studies at Massey University and go on to study at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic in Auckland.

A Philosophy That Resonates
David was drawn to the chiropractic philosophy from the start. “Our bodies are designed to be healthy. When the nervous system—the body’s master control system—is functioning properly, we’re better able to heal, thrive, and enjoy life.”

Building Resilience in a Changing World
David has noticed a shift in the community in recent years: “People don’t seem as robust as they once were. Colds, infections, and general immune challenges are showing up more frequently—even during summer months, when they were once rare.” Interestingly, many of his clients report they don’t get sick nearly as often as others around them. And when they do, they tend to recover much more quickly.
In addition to reduced pain, headaches, and improved mobility, clients frequently report unexpected benefits like better sleep, more energy, improved digestion, easier breathing, enhanced memory, steadier balance, and a greater sense of calm. “In an environment where stress is a given, it just makes sense to have your body as resilient and responsive as possible,” David says.
Helping Humans… and Dogs!
Dr. David doesn’t only care for people—he also works with show dogs, many of which go on to win top awards. Their owners believe chiropractic care enhances their dogs’ alertness, agility, and performance.
Living Well in Hamilton
A proud resident of the Hamilton community, David enjoys quality time with family and friends. Outside the clinic, you might find him on a recreational motorbike ride or driving adventure. He continues to receive chiropractic care himself and practices daily meditation to stay mentally and physically balanced.
