I'm so glad you're here
My mission is to help families thrive with chiropractic care and compassionate lactation support. I am dedicated to supporting families with evidence-based care that nurtures spinal health and breastfeeding success.
Every family deserves to feel heard, supported, and empowered.
Let me introduce myself
Hi! I'm Dr Amber.
I completed a six year, full time Masters Degree in Chiropractic with the University of Johannesburg. Thereafter I registered as a Chiropractic Practitioner with the Allied Health Professions Council of South Africa. I am a member of the Chiropractic Association of South Africa and Paediatric Chiropractic Africa. I have also completed my qualification with distinction as a South African Certified Lactation Consultant.
I enjoy treating the whole family as I believe that babies, children, adults, athletes and the elderly all deserve a body that is functioning at its best. I have a special interest in pregnancy and paediatrics (which allows me to use both my qualifications in harmony to support my patients).
When I'm not working, you will normally find me spending time with family. I have a husband, 2 beautiful little girls and 3 dogs. They all keep me on my toes!

Not only did Dr Amber help us on our breastfeeding journey, but she helped my son so much in a single chiropractor session! My son is now comfortable looking left and right, and his gas and constipation issues have reduced significantly. Highly recommend!

I have struggled with headaches for years, trying numerous remedies with little success. However, after visiting Dr Amber for assistance I've experienced a significant reduction in both the frequency and intensity of my headaches. Her thorough assessments and personalized adjustments have brought me so much of relief. The improvement in my overall wellbeing has been remarkable and I am truly grateful for your help.

After 30 years plus of suffering from debilitating back pain and tension headaches, I was introduced to Amber Kukard. Amber conducted a full 360° assessment and truly understood my needs. What followed was a tailored treatment plan and ultimately, a 80% + improvement in my condition. Amber consistently puts her patients first and genuinely goes the extra mile to achieve results. I would highly recommend Amber and her professional skills.

Dr Kukard is very thorough and takes great care in finding the right diagnosis. After three sessions my severe muscle spasms were virtually gone.
