Dominick Hussey feels that healing is a process in which the client should take an active part. He has become disillusioned with conventional medical practices that deliver a band-aid approach to cover symptoms. His passion is in lessening symptoms now while uncovering the underlying or root cause of those symptoms and, in so doing, enlightening his clients to obtain authentic, profound, enduring healing. Dominick Hussey was born and raised by his mother in West London. Life was challenging, his mother had to work long hours, and Dominick was often alone. During this period, Dominick developed a stutter, a significant source of anxiety, particularly at school and university. This rejection had a silver lining. Some months after, his mother returned from an appointment with an osteopath. Unfortunately, Dominick understood little to nothing about osteopathy, though he was somehow compelled to investigate this opportunity. He successfully applied to the British School of Osteopathic and Naturopathic Medicine in north London. His speech made the course challenging, but he relished what he learned and adored helping people. In 1997, he graduated with an honours degree in Osteopathic Medicine and a diploma in Naturopathy. His first post was at the Aston Clinic in New Malden, South West London. The clinic was owned and run by David Melrose, an Osteopath, Herbalist and Applied Kinesiologist. Observing David's work, he became intrigued by the Applied Kinesiology or muscle testing that David would utilize on his clients. This observation motivated Dominick to attend a course with the International College of Applied Kinesiology, and so started a love affair with AK, which continues to the current day. During these early years of working, Dominick was challenged by anxiety and his speech impediment. Despite this, he remained positive and gained great satisfaction from his work. Dominick had always been curious about the Root Cause of his client's problems, so when he found Functional Medicine, it pulled him like a magnet. He learnt about Functional Medicine from many sources, including Functional Medicine Practitioners Dr. Dan Kalish, Dr. Michael Ruscio and Dr. Mark Hyman. In 2015, he attended a course, in Atlanta, with the Institute of Functional Medicine to learn more about Functional Medicine.

In 2003 Dominick met Sue Taylor via an online dating website, and they were married in 2006.
