Let me introduce myself
My name is Dr Natalie Muntz, but you can call me Nat.
Dr. Nat is a highly skilled chiropractor, recognised as one of the top three in Newcastle, NSW, with expertise in dry needling, muscle release techniques, and exercise rehabilitation. She is passionate about providing comprehensive chiropractic care across all life stages, focusing on professional collaboration to deliver exceptional results.
Natalie's journey into chiropractic began in her teens while competing in netball for Australia and managing a low back injury. The profound impact of chiropractic care on her health ignited a lifelong passion that led her from Sydney, where she graduated from Macquarie University, to settling in beautiful Newcastle with her family.
Today, Natalie delights in caring for everyone from newborns to grandparents. As a mother, she deeply understands the importance of prenatal and pregnancy care, and the transformative power of early intervention for children. Her greatest joy comes from witnessing the positive changes in the health and well-being of the families she serves.
With warmth and clarity, Natalie takes time to explain the details of each patient's health situation, ensuring transparency in the steps needed to achieve their health goals. She is committed to empowering her patients with knowledge and tools for actively participating in their health journey.
Natalie thrives on collaboration with a network of like-minded professionals, including podiatrists, exercise physiologists, dentists, psychologists, pelvic floor physiotherapists, and acupuncturists, ensuring comprehensive care that supports all aspects of her patients' health.
Away from the clinic, Natalie enjoys pilates, weight training, devouring books, and cherishing time with her family. She understands that her patients seek more than just health improvements; they want to return to what brings them joy and fulfilment in life.
