How He Discovered Chiropractic

At the age of 14, I suffered a very severe sporting injury, which left me unable to walk unaided for many weeks. Through regular physiotherapy over three months, I gradually started to regain mobility, but was far from being able to run again. The injury had left me with severe low back and pelvic pain, which really started to get me down. Sport was such an enormous part of my life, and I felt like a huge part of me was missing. My overall mood, spirit and energy levels got lower and lower.

After months of sitting on the side-line watching my team play, just wishing I was able to join in again, somebody suggested something which would change my life forever.  They recommended I visit their Doctor of Chiropractic to get checked, and see if they could help. At the time, not really knowing much about chiropractic, I decided that it was worth a shot. After examining me thoroughly the chiropractor said that he could indeed help.

After a few weeks of sessions with him, I was able to run again, and the debilitating pain in my back began to resolve. I was then picked to play for my team again and got back to my pre-injury fitness through the continued support of my chiropractor.  I cannot imagine what my life would have been like had I not seen a chiropractor. I’m so grateful that someone had suggested seeing one. From there, I decided that I myself wanted to become a Doctor of Chiropractic; to give people the same amazing results that chiropractic had given me.

I graduated from the world-renowned Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in Bournemouth, England, with a distinction. The following year I achieved my Doctor of Chiropractic through the European Academy of Chiropractic. After leaving university I moved to Warwickshire where I worked in clinics in Rugby, Royal Leamington Spa, Warwick and Stratford-Upon-Avon.

I have helped many thousands of patients of all ages; babies just a few hours old, to my oldest patient of 96! People come to me for help with a very wide variety of problems and health challenges. I have treated many professional sports players, famous actors, important business executives, Royal Family members and everyone in between. Outside of the clinic my skills have been sought through providing lectures and training sessions to teams and employees. I provide people with on-site advice on work-station set-up and ergonomics, and have been involved with the seat ergonomics and design of Jaguar cars.

I have been involved with many large companies in the UK and Abu Dhabi, to help educate their employees on good ergonomics, posture, and health lifestyle choices.  Currently, I sit on the board of examiners at the Health Authority of Abu Dhabi (HAAD), where I interview chiropractors wanting to gain a license to practice in Abu Dhabi; thus ensuring they are reaching the high standards expected by HAAD.

My experience also involves specialised work with pre- and post-natal women, along with gentle specific chiropractic techniques for babies, toddlers and children.

Life and Wellness Coaching 

I felt that a certification in NLP life coaching would help me achieve even better results with my patients and clients.  This really gives me a unique skill set to provide people with an approach that is rare and individual.

Coaching and NLP allows me to provide a truly holistic, individualised plan to people by address all areas of their lives, including mental/emotional balance, along with the physical, nutritional and lifestyle factors.

NLP addresses issues simply and quickly by re-wiring our neurology and our subconscious mind.  Over our lives we build up a framework of the world and ourselves, through our identity and interaction with our environment.  Oftentimes, these programs are carried through life far longer than they should, and become to have a negative or limiting effect on our lives.  NLP identifies these negative emotions, limiting beliefs and destructive habits, and goes about re-framing, removing and re-programming them.  Replacing these old states with new, updated, positive and empowering ones.

It allows us to live our lives to their full potential, by living in the present in an empowering and positive way, and stop living life through the past with its unhelpful patterns and beliefs.  It really is that powerful.
