Dr Rebecca PritchardDr Rebecca Pritchard, who is from Hampshire, graduated from the Anglo European College of Chiropractic with Merit. Rebecca Pritchard’s connection with chiropractic started when she was a young girl thinking about a career in medicine or healthcare so she took the opportunity to observe her mother’s friend who is a chiropractor in Sweden. It was such an eye opening experience for Rebecca seeing people be treated for the cause of their symptoms instead of being given something to mask their pain. The experience prompted Rebecca to seek out Chiropractic care for herself and she was so impressed with the way Chiropractic helped her with the migraines that she had suffered with during her teenage years and also a knee injury that had never fully healed after a skiing accident that she decided to become a Doctor of Chiropractic.
In her clinical year at the AECC and in her first Chiropractic position in a busy Chiropractic Wellness practice in Bournemouth, Rebecca developed a lot of experience with sports injuries, headaches and chronic conditions, in particular osteo-arthritis and chronic back & neck pain, which she has a particular interest in treating. |
