Mat Kingett grew up in the New Zealand coastal town of Tauranga. He received his Chiropractic training and then went on to postgraduate training in Auckland. Alongside this he began his journey as a researcher for the NZCC Research department focusing on the relationship between spinal function, sensory integration and limb strength.

Mat started Chiropractic practice in Matakana 2013 and stayed in Auckland up until 2018. He then made the move across the ditch to Cairns, serving the Cairns and Mareeba communities. After a brief hiatus as a locum travelling around Australia doing relief work, Mat re-opened two clinics on the Atherton Tablelands. Mat has now made Cairns home and opened Optimise Chiropractic on his mission to optimise the health of the Cairns community.

If Mat is not in the clinic adjusting or talking chiropractic with his mentors and other colleagues he is spending quality time with his beautiful wife and his beloved dog. You may also see him out on his bicycle or exploring the rainforest and reef.
