Dr Yolanda Jennings is passionate about Gonstead chiropractic and loves working in her clinic in Traralgon helping patients. She says, ’For as long as I can remember I have always had a passion for helping people. As a 16 year old I had a terrible fall that caused a significant lower back and neck injury. My parents took me to see a chiropractor and from that first appointment I knew this is what I wanted to do when I finished school. I become obsessed with studying and understanding the intricate relationship between the spine, the nervous system and the effect these have on the way the body functions. With an uninterrupted nervous system the body is able to function optimally. Something I always strive for – optimal function – enabling me to reach my maximal potential!’
A well respected and ethical member of the profession, Dr Yolanda has built a referral based practice, centered on patient outcomes. Dr Yolanda is focused on delivering the highest quality of chiropractic care to her patients. She believes this is achieved by devoting her practice to the Gonstead Method of Chiropractic, which provides a thorough diagnostic process, the most specific adjustment done by hand, resulting in a more permanent outcome for the patient. Additionally she is certified in Gonstead Extremity adjusting and is currently studying to sit her Gonstead Diplomate exam this year. In 2005, Dr Yolanda Jennings graduated from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) with a double degree in Applied Science (Clinical) and Chiropractic Science. She started Well Balanced Chiropractic in 2011 in Malvern East and then opened the second clinic in Traralgon in 2012. It was not long before the Traralgon clinic became her main focus. Dr Yolanda is the National President of the Gonstead Chiropractic Society of Australia and has been a valued board member since 2010. Dr Yolanda has a keen interest in keeping healthy with correct nutrition, exercise and mindset. Yolanda spends hours studying the healthiest way to eat, move and think. She loves spending time with Scott, Chloe and their fur-babies Chilli and Basil.

Dr Synn graduated from RMIT University, Melbourne with a double bachelor degree in Health Science and Applied Science (Chiropractic). Born and raised in Malaysia, she is capable of fluent English, Mandarin and Malay. She is passionate about helping patients achieve their optimal health so that they can in turn focus on what’s important to them. Dr Synn learnt about chiropractic when she was 16 through one of her closest friends in school - a dancer who has trained so hard over the years that she suffered from debilitating back pain at such a young age. Through Chiropractic, not only did her back pain improve, but she was also able to get back on stage to perform again! Seeing how positively Chiropractic could change someone’s quality of life, Dr Synn decided to pursue Chiropractic as her career, to use the most natural form of therapy to help patients get out of pain and back into doing what they love. Coming from a background where the importance of health was often overlooked, Dr Synn has also set out with the aim to educate as many people as she can about the importance of a healthy spine and nervous system and thus helping them achieve exactly that! Dr Synn also utilises the Gonstead System of Chiropractic, which allows chiropractors to thoroughly evaluate the spine as a whole, accurately locate which spinal level the problems are at and thus safely correct them using specific spinal adjustments. She is also certified in Gonstead Extremities adjusting. Dr Synn is an active member of the Gonstead Chiropractic Society (GCS) of Australia, where she attends seminars regularly to stay up-to-date with the latest knowledge and continuously hone her adjustment techniques. Dr Synn enjoys looking after patients from all walks of life and of different backgrounds. She also offers advice on lifestyle and work habits, in order to help patients manage and prevent recurrence of their conditions. Dr Synn has worked in multiple successful practices in Melbourne including locations in Richmond, Reservoir and Ivanhoe before moving down here to Traralgon to join our team. Outside of work, she loves trying out new recipes, exploring Gippsland and what this beautiful region has to offer - from hiking trails and sandy beaches to the lush vineyards, picturesque rivers, lakes and of course, the snowfields.
