Duane was introduced to chiropractic from an early age. He was a competitive horse rider and after a number of major falls he started suffering from recurrent neck pain and headaches. Luckily his parents had the foresight to take him to their local chiropractor and his recovery was remarkable. Through the years he continued with chiropractic care, sparking an interest that would one day result in him becoming a chiropractor.
Duane earned his Master’s Degree in Chiropractic from the Technikon Natal, Durban, South Africa in 1997. Soon after graduating he and his wife went on holiday to the United Kingdom. Scotland stole their heart and they decided to settle in the Granite City, joining Aberdeen Chiropractic Clinic that same year. He worked in the practice for nine years where he also became certified in Applied Kinesiology.
His family then returned to South Africa in 2006. As he had worked with Eline during his first stint at the practice in Aberdeen, they stayed in touch through the years and he planned to return to the practice in 2020. Then COVID-19 hit, and his plans to relocate were suspended until restrictions were lifted and he was able to return to Scotland with his family and resume at Aberdeen Chiropractic Clinic in 2022.
