We Are The Health Institute
We are unique, holistic and practical with our approach. Our health belief is to 'test not guess' when it comes to your health and optimal performance.
Utilising the latest, internationally acclaimed, scientifically advanced lab testing, with thorough lifestyle investigation, we work to find the underlying causes that are impacting your life.
​
Specialty lab testing considers elements such as DNA, genetics, methylation, cellular function, food sensitivities, hidden infections, environmental toxins, metabolic issues and nutrient imbalances.
​
Once the areas of underlying dysfunction are identified, we create an individual and personalised plan with support for accountability if this is required.
Functional health focuses on a lifetime of wellness, biohacking for optimisation and healthy longevity.
​
We value a patient centric approach. We address the underlying issues, the genetic factors and recognise biochemical individuality. Then, we develop practical implementable solutions so you take control of your health and your life.
Functional medicine takes a comprehensive, whole health approach to prevention, health and well-being
It looks at root causes of disease and restores function through personalised investigation and implementation of lifestyle measures
All while being a partner to conventional, traditional medicine

Our Story
The Health Institute is founded by Dr. Sam Wilkinson DC and Dr. Shelley Parker DC.
Dr. Sam has a high performance sport background as an Olympic Coach and athlete mentor. Dr. Shelley has vast experience in practical implementation of using food to heal, supplementation and managing chronic health issues.
​
Both have independently overcome their own long term health battles and work as Chiropractors and Functional health practitioners, running a bustling clinic in Cambridge, New Zealand.
​
While in practice, they have seen a growing amount of people suffering with chronic conditions, and recognised that a different approach was needed to dig deeper into the cause, not just the symptom.
​
We are committed to helping others live healthier and unrestricted lives, by applying their ‘no-stone-unturned’ targeted approach to wellness.
