Ceris Owen
Doctor of chiropractic, MChiro, BSc (Hons)
Ceris Owen is a Chiropractor who combines chiropractic care with massage and dry needling to support people in achieving and maintaining their best possible health. She trained at the McTimoney College of Chiropractic, graduating with a Master’s degree in Chiropractic, and has since completed further training in a range of chiropractic and manual therapy techniques. This enables Ceris to tailor each treatment to the individual, offering a broad and adaptable approach to care.
Ceris works with a whole-body perspective, integrating chiropractic adjustments with massage techniques, muscle testing, and orthopaedic and neurological assessments where appropriate. Her aim is to facilitate positive change by supporting the body’s natural ability to heal, restore balance and maintain long-term wellbeing.
She works with people of all ages — from the young to the young at heart — supporting a wide range of needs including injury rehabilitation, pre- and post-training care, general maintenance, and relaxation. Ceris treats individuals from Penrith and the surrounding villages, helping people manage both the demands of active lifestyles and the physical stresses of modern living.
With a close family member living with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), Ceris developed a particular interest in this condition and completed specialist training to diagnose and treat BPPV using the Epley Manoeuvre.
Background
Ceris’s journey into healthcare followed a complete career change. She previously worked in the film and television industry training animals, alongside roles working with a wide range of animals in other settings. Her interest in movement and the body led her to train as a massage therapist, establishing Massage for Motion, where her hands-on skills developed and evolved over time.
As her practice grew, Ceris became increasingly drawn to supporting people with pain, discomfort and dysfunction — whether due to sporting injuries or the effects of everyday life. Having personally benefited from chiropractic care for many years, she began her five-year journey to qualify as a chiropractor.
After graduating, Ceris practised under the name Eden Bodyworks at the Remedial Massage and Chiropractic Centre in Penrith. In early 2018, she partnered with Christine Jackson to create The Health Barn, bringing together their shared vision of collaborative, holistic care. Ceris is also a mum to two young boys.
