Clinic Director, MChiro
Currently on Maternity leave from March 2024
I have been in practice now for 10 years and in April 2021 Lucy and I took over Afon House which has been an enjoyable new venture.
I became interested in chiropractic as my dad had a number of quite serious injuries and found that chiropractic not only helped treat them, but provided continued care. I have always enjoyed sports and exercise and although I treat everything, treating sports injuries is my passion. It is important to stay fit and mobile all through life, so whether it’s a new injury, or a very old injury; I enjoy helping people get back to their hobbies and sports with treatment and rehabilitation.
In my spare time I love to go out for walks with my daughter and our loopy dog, lifting weights, cooking and socialising.
Clinic Director, MChiro
I grew up on a small farm, just outside of Lymington, which has resulted in a love of animals and the outdoors. I still live in Lymington with my husband, our baby daughter and our Cockapoo, Mabel. In my spare time, I enjoy getting out for walks in the New Forest, swimming and baking cakes! I was first introduced to Chiropractic aged 15, after being recommended to see a Chiropractor for my painful, clicking jaw. It really helped and sparked my interest. I enjoy treating patients of all ages, and have completed additional training in pregnancy and paediatrics, as well as dry needling (western acupuncture).
After being in practice for nearly 10 years now, myself and Verity took over Afon House in April 2021. We are really enjoying this new challenge.
Associate Chiropractor, DC IAVC
I qualified as a Chiropractor from the University of Johannesburg and moved to England in 2022 to further my studies.
I have always been active, participating in different sports such as netball, athletics, touch rugby and horse riding, and I have received the benefits of chiropractic treatment throughout my life to prevent injuries.
I love working with people of all ages from babies to elderly people as well as all kinds of athletes. I thoroughly enjoy reading during my free time, learning about physical and mental health. I enjoy exploring new places, trying new sports and being outdoors in nature.
Associate Chiropractor
Sam qualified as a Chiropractor from AECC University College following five years of training with the passion of wanting to help others. She believes in finding and treating the root cause of a problem and empowering patients to prevent further problems whilst learning about their bodies.
During her paediatric placement, Sam worked with midwives at a breastfeeding clinic to support mum and baby in continuing their breastfeeding journey and help with latching issues, reflux, postural strain and provided a compassionate and supportive environment for both mum and baby. Sam has also treated babies as young as four days old with gentle spinal, cranial and visceral paediatric techniques.
Sam also offers a variety of hands-on treatment modalities for adults including spinal and extremity manipulations, mobilisations, soft and deep tissue massage, and other manual therapy techniques.
Receptionist
I've 25+ years senior professional marketing experience, having worked in large financial services and healthcare companies in roles spanning creative, digital, project management, customer experience, loyalty and retention.
I've loved my professional career but it wasn't without stress, long hours and some sleepless nights. I jumped off the corporate 'hamster wheel' in 2020 to find a work-life balance and help my mum care for my father after his diagnosis of terminal cancer.
I love the euphoric feeling after you've done something good for someone else. The release of endorphins in your body and brain from performing acts of kindness is wonderful. I recognised that helping others produced a positive effect on my mental and physical health and it reduced my stress too.
Tapping in to this, I wanted to do more for others, so I founded my cleaning and home-help business in 2021, called 'Cleaning by Charlie'. I love it and my many clients really appreciate what I do for them.
In my spare time I'm snuggled up with my cat at home, or entertaining foreign language students as their 'host mum' while they stay in our beautiful city or with my arms in the air at a dance music event in the UK or abroad.
Receptionist

Receptionist (Ad-hoc/holiday cover)
As a daughter and then wife of someone in the Armed Forces, I have been fortunate to live in some fascinating places around the world. However, Wiltshire has always been home, with my Parents settling here over 40 years ago. I am a trained Beauty Therapist, but more recently have been working as an administrator in a Doctors’ Surgery. My spare time is taken up with hobbies, such as card making and painting. I love to garden but am very much an amateur.
