Supporting a healthier you

Nick Caputo

Doctor of Chiropractic (USA)

Nick Caputo is a licensed Doctor of Chiropractic and believes in the power of chiropractic care to help heal your body naturally!

Nick experienced the benefits of spinal adjustments at the young age of 13 years old and his positive experience inspired him to pursue a career helping others experience these same benefits. He has a slight curvature in his spine and chiropractic care not only helped manage his health but also his athletic performance.

Nick believes in a patient centred approach in which treatment and care plans are tailored to individual patient goals. He treats patients of all ages and abilities, in every area of health that chiropractic care can naturally heal. This includes neck pain, back pain, headaches, scoliosis, arthritis, sporting injuries and more.

When he’s not helping you heal, Nick enjoys playing basketball, riding his push bike and hiking with his partner Emily and their two wonderful children.

Nick has been practising chiropractic since 2014 and took over Seaford Chiropractic from Dr. Richard Pagano in December 2019 who retired after serving South Australia for over 35 years.

Kouthar May

Master of Chiropractic (AUS)

Originally from South Africa, Dr Kouthar May found chiropractic through her passion for human movement, connection, and helping people feel more at home in their bodies. She is deeply passionate about supporting people through all stages of life with care that feels empowering, personal, and grounded.

Dr Kouthar believes that understanding your body is an important part of long-term health and wellbeing. She has a genuine passion for helping people reduce tension, move with greater ease, and better understand what their body may need to thrive through the physical and emotional demands of daily life.

Her journey has taken her beyond the clinic walls, including volunteering in rural India with Hands on India, where she provided chiropractic care to remote Himalayan communities. This experience strengthened her commitment to accessible, compassionate healthcare and deepened her appreciation for the resilience of the human body.

Currently completing her Diplomate in Women’s Health, Dr Kouthar has a growing passion for supporting women, mothers, and families with practical, supportive care throughout different phases of life. As a mother to a busy young child herself, she understands the challenges of balancing self-care, family, stress, and wellbeing, and brings this understanding into the care she provides.

Known for her warm nature and deep care for every person she treats, Dr Kouthar aims to create a space where people feel heard, supported, and empowered in their health journey.

Emily Bowling

Practice Manager

Emily’s background is in Finance and Real Estate Administration, previously working for a long standing agency in Glenelg. She also shares a passion for health care and is part way through completing a degree in Clinical Exercise Physiology. After thoroughly enjoying 10 years with her Real Estate family, Emily and Nick decided to unite forces whereby she joined the practice mid 2021 to continue to grow their business venture together.

A lover of the outdoors, Emily can be found out on a hike or a bike ride with Nick and their beautiful children, that is when she’s not fulfilling the absolute delight she finds in any type of dancing.

Emily’s warm nature is sure to make you feel at ease throughout any dealings with her, whether by phone or in person.

Nardia Simmons

Administration

Nardia will greet you at our practice with her warm presence! Nardia joined the practice in April 2023 and brings a delightfully varied career background that spans from bakeries and bookbinding to government services.

When she is not greeting patients, Nardia is likely out camping around the beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula, diving into a good book, mastering a strategy board game, or cooking up delicious Asian cuisine for friends. Nardia feels working at Seaford Chiropractic is a true pleasure, as the warm and down-to-earth environment of the practice perfectly complements her friendly nature.

Jan Bowling

Administration

Jan’s bright smile will welcome you to our practice! Jan comes from an incredible 42-year career as a Registered Nurse, where she specialised in Brain Injury Rehabilitation, before joining the practice in late 2021.

Outside of work, Jan loves trekking overseas, hiking and dancing with her partner Max, or spending quality time as a proud Granny to her eight beautiful grandchildren. For Jan, the calming environment of Seaford Chiropractic offers a wonderful change of pace, and she absolutely loves working alongside her son-in-law, Nick!
