Anna Franklin
After working as an associate in various different chiropractic clinics, Anna established the Godalming Chiropractic Clinic where she worked for 15 years.
She established Bransgore Chiropractic Clinic, working from within Twin Oaks surgery for the past 17 years.
She has just made the move to her new premises within the heart of the village, and looks forward to seeing her existing and new patients there.
She graduated with Distinction in 1991, and completed a post-graduate Clinical Masters Degree in 1999 alongside full-time clinical practice. She was then made a Fellow of the Royal College Of Chiropractors and a Fellow of the Faculty of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation.
Anna’s Master’s dissertation focussed on exercise compliance with different types of exercises prescribed for chronic low back pain sufferers. This was based on an extensive research trial involving her own patients, and led to her special interest in the rehabilitation of chronic low back and neck pain.
She is experienced in prescribing exercise, from athletes to post-surgical patients, so your programme will suit you, your condition and your goals.
Anna was an External Examiner for the AECC University College for 5 years, and has therefore been involved with maintaining the high standards of clinical excellence expected in this country. She also taught at the AECC-University College for the best part of a decade, supervising the final year students in their last year of study in the student teaching clinic, and is a registered trainer/mentor for new graduates.
She loves her work, but is also an award-winning author of historical fiction (under the name of Anna Franklin Osborne), sings in the infamous Chicken Soup Choir, and loves dogs, camping and sailing!
Dave Slayter
After completing his first degree in Physical Education Dave spent much of his career as a lecturer and department manager in a thriving Further Education College, alongside being a qualified Swimming teacher, Lifeguard, Fitness Instructor and Sports Massage Therapist.
Originally from the Midlands, Dave has relocated to make Bournemouth his permanent home with his wife, son and dog and is now happily pursuing his career as a Chiropractor after completing a MSc in Chiropractic at the AECC in Dorset.
Dave’s empathetic and caring approach helps put clients at ease during treatments. In your first appointment, a full health history will be taken followed by a physical examination. In this appointment, there will be plenty of time for you to discuss your concerns to get to the root of your problem. This will be then discussed with you, giving the chance to ask questions, and you may have your first treatment as appropriate at that point. Thereafter, a bespoke treatment plan will be proposed, aiming to release muscular tension, mobilise joints and helping your body to cope with the daily demands of your life. Why not get in touch today and see how Dave can help you with your health concerns.
