Meet Your Pukekohe Chiropractic Family

Experts in Neurostructual care, designed for the whole family

Dr. James Marks, Chiropractor​

With a background in HR/ recruitment and, as a yoga teacher (certified in India), I have always wanted to find a way to support people to live well. Finally, Chiropractic found me, and the rest is history.

My first exposure to Chiropractic was at a stable, where I saw a distressed horse evolve from trying to bite and kick a Chiropractor to being relaxed, docile and trying to lick him after an adjustment. That one life altering moment piqued my interest in all things Chiropractic, and I searched out a Chiropractor in York, England for my first adjustment. My personal experience was so profound, that it led this Franklin local to cut his travels short and return home to delve into 5 years of study at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic.

My passion is simple, I enjoy helping people do their thing better, easier and more. To me, that is what Chiropractic is all about. Invigorating people, one adjustment at a time.

When I’m not adjusting, you can find me playing a round of golf, exploring the Waitakere’s, or enjoying a BBQ on a sunny afternoon.

My mission in Pukekohe is to support our community to thrive, as a friendly, health focused community, doing what we do best.

After experiencing the incredible benefits of chiropractic care firsthand as a patient at Pukekohe Chiropractic in early 2025, I was inspired to join the team as a Chiropractic Assistant just a few months later. I’m passionate about supporting others on their health journeys and love being part of a team that’s dedicated to holistic wellbeing, healing, and care.

When I’m not at the clinic, you’ll usually find me enjoying family time, getting lost in a good book, or doing Reformer Pilates.
