About Nick

I have a special interest in low back pain and rehabilitation and a passion for creating true patient-centred care. I take a functional, active approach to back pain coupled with an enthusiasm in promoting lifelong exercise and healthspan.

Education
Over the years I've undertaken many courses to improve my knowledge and skill set, these have included a mentorship with First Principles of Movement that underpins the evidence-based, patient-centred approach to treatment and rehabilitation of the spine. More recently I've completed courses on lower limb tendinopathy with Dr Peter Malliaras. I'm certified in FMS, SFMA level 1 and 2.

In May 2019 I attended the European McGill Conference in the Netherlands, an in depth method of evaluation and management of low back pain based on Professor Stuart McGills 30+ years as a professor, publishing over 240 peer reviewed research papers, several books and international courses on low back pain prevention, management and rehabilitation. As well as these in depth course I have attended seminars in sports chiropractic, lower limb sports injury, kinesiotaping, acupuncture, Active Release Technique and Golf injuries.

I graduated from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic in 2009 with a Master of Chiropractic degree. Chiropractors study for a minimum of 4 years with a further year of post-registration training. Annual continuing professional development is a requirement of registration with the General Chiropractic Council and keeps my skills up to date. I am also proud to be registered with the British Chiropractic Association.

Becoming a Northampton Chiropractor

I set up the Duston Chiropractic Clinic in April 2016 after working for several clinics across South Yorkshire and East Midlands. I grew up in Northampton and decided on the move back home in 2012 when my wife and I were expecting our first daughter. In Autumn 2022 I opened Kislingbury Chiropractic Clinic with the aim of increasing our offering of rehabilitation services which I have used as the foundation for Northampton Sport and Spine Clinic.

I'm a keen hiker and climber (indoor and outdoor) and enjoy anything that involves being outside and active. It was sports injuries that got me into physiotherapy treatment in Northampton as a patient and from the age of 15 I knew my career would be in manual therapies.
