Background
Victoria’s interest in people, biomechanics and health began with her competitive sporting career as a teenager. She used chiropractic treatment for her injuries and performance when she competed internationally on the South African karate team for many years. This inspired her to pursue her own career in musculoskeletal (MSK) medicine, including chiropractic and diagnostic imaging.
Victoria earned her Master of Chiropractic (MChiro), Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) and PGCert in Medical MSK Ultrasound from the prestigious Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in Bournemouth. She is an active member of the Royal College of Chiropractors.
With a wealth of knowledge and experience, Victoria has successfully used chiropractic to treat spinal issues such as sciatica, disc herniations, trapped nerves in the neck, posture-related pain, upper back pain, and headaches, in addition to limb issues such as tennis elbow, rotator cuff (shoulder) strains, hip arthritis, achilles tendinitis, plantar fasciitis.
Her approach is patient-centered, focusing on individualised care plans that address the unique needs and goals of her patients. Victoria is known for her compassionate and empathetic nature, creating a welcoming environment where patients feel heard and supported.
Victoria feels that an active lifestyle is essential to a long and healthy life. Outside of work, you will often find her working out in the gym, practising yoga or out walking her black lab, Pepper, in the Cotswolds.
Approach
“Chiropractic provides a fantastic package of care using manual techniques, exercise and nutritional advice to look after your muscles, joints and nervous system. Every patient’s health requirements are unique to them; my aim is to provide patients with care that is centred around their needs.”
