About Chris Swaffield (Doctor of Chiropractic) PDF Print E-mail

Chris SwaffieldChris Graduated from Welsh Institute of Chiropractic - University of Glamorgan in 2005. After working with an experienced Chiropractor for a short while and several locum positions, Chris setup his own practice in East Devon in 2006 which he has run since. The move to Borders Chiropractic coincides with his wife moving to take over a family business near Kelso.


Chris utilises mainly a combination of Diversified chiropractic technique( which includes adjustments and manipulation), and the Neuro Impulse Protocol - a very gentle form of treatment originally developed in Australia for use with paediatric patients. He also often uses an Activator instrument and various soft tissue treatments. Chris also has an interest in food and nutrition, and the contribution these can make to a patients overall health and wellbeing.


Before training as a chiropractor Chris worked for many years in sail training, offering life training to (mainly) young people from all over the UK - often in classic sailling vessels. He is married to a nurse (who also loves sailing) and has two young sons who now occupy most of his leisure time!


Chris is registered with the General Chiropractic Council and is a member of the British Chiropractic Association.
