Meet Shaun Owen
Shaun is in the final stage of his chiropractic training at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic, refining his clinical skills at WYLD under close mentorship from our experienced team.
He has spent years building his knowledge in musculoskeletal health — anatomy, biomechanics, neurology, orthopaedic and neurological assessment, and chiropractic technique — and is now applying it in clinical practice at WYLD Ponsonby.
Every patient Shaun sees is under the supervision of a registered WYLD chiropractor. His findings and care recommendations are reviewed with our senior team, so you get Shaun's time and attention with the experience of the wider WYLD clinic behind every decision.
Outside the clinic, Shaun is a competitive fencer, which gives him a firsthand understanding of how the body moves under load, reacts to strain, and recovers between sessions — insight he brings straight into his patient care.

Attentive, Up-to-Date Care
A thorough first visit, current clinical training and the backing of an established Auckland clinic team.
Shaun works under the supervision of registered WYLD chiropractors, who review his assessments and care recommendations with him.
Fresh from the latest teaching in assessment, clinical reasoning and evidence-informed care at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic.
A thorough, unhurried first visit. Shaun takes the time to understand your history, your goals and how your body is moving.
As a competitive fencer, Shaun knows firsthand how training load, repetition and recovery affect the spine and joints.
Every finding explained in plain language, with room for all your questions — so you understand exactly where things stand.
Your care plan is tailored to your goals and lifestyle, with clear next steps and what to expect going forward.
What Fencing Teaches About the Body
Fencing is fast, explosive and highly one-sided. Hours of lunging, recovering and changing direction on the same lead leg put the spine, hips and shoulders under repeated, uneven load.
That experience shapes how Shaun looks at every patient — whether you train hard, sit at a desk all day or carry a child on one hip. He pays close attention to how your body shares load, where it compensates, and what it needs to recover well.
Asymmetry & Compensation
Looking at how favouring one side — in sport, work or daily life — shows up in posture, range of motion and joint mobility.
Load & Recovery
Understanding how training volume, repetition and rest interact, so your care plan fits around the way you actually live and move.
Speed & Control
Appreciating the demands of quick, reactive movement on the spine, hips and shoulders — relevant to any sport or active lifestyle.
What to Expect
A clear, collaborative process from your first conversation with Shaun through to your personalised care plan.
Health History Review
Shaun reviews your symptoms, health history, lifestyle, training and work demands, previous injuries, medications, and any imaging or reports you bring.
Physical Examination
A hands-on orthopaedic and neurological examination including range of motion testing, joint palpation, spinal assessment, reflex and nerve checks, and functional movement screening.
Postural Analysis & Findings
Digital postural analysis identifies asymmetries and alignment patterns. Shaun then explains all findings clearly, in plain language.
Your Personalised Care Plan
Reviewed with his supervising chiropractor, Shaun builds a care plan tailored to your goals and walks you through the recommended next steps.
