Ray’s story
Ray started out as a mechanical engineer and holds two engineering degrees. His change of career was partly due to his own chiropractic experience.
Ray’s own experience with back pain
Ray had always enjoyed an active lifestyle. But this was put on hold when a rock climbing session triggered sharp, shooting pains in his lower back.
Frustrated by the lack of progress, Ray decided to find out whether chiropractic could help. His first chiropractic experience showed him the value of having someone properly assess the problem, explain what they found and use that information to guide treatment. With treatment and support, he recovered and was able to return to the active lifestyle he loved.
The experience changed the direction of his career.
Retraining as a chiropractor
In 2016, Ray decided to retrain as a chiropractor and started his course at AECC University College, Bournemouth.
After qualifying, he worked as a chiropractor in another clinic for two years before deciding to open his own practice.
In 2022, Ray opened his first clinic in St Neots, Cambridgeshire. In 2023, he moved the practice to Trowbridge.
Opening his clinic
Having my own clinic gives me the freedom to focus on the individual in front of me.
I’m not tied to a particular treatment or approach. I can take the time to understand what you’re experiencing, carry out a thorough assessment and use the findings to decide what treatment is appropriate.
It also gives me the freedom to continue developing my knowledge and skills, so I can keep improving the way I assess and treat musculoskeletal problems.
