Hi, I’m Bhavik. I grew up locally in Preston and Penwortham, and graduated as a chiropractor in 2019 from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic at the University of South Wales, after four years of full-time training.
How I came to chiropractic
I knew from an early age I wanted to work in healthcare. I grew up helping in charities and spent several years at my local youth club — eventually as a youth leader — where I learned how much difference good communication and the right kind of support can make to someone’s life.
Through my teenage years I suffered with fatiguing back pain, and the routine treatments I was offered didn’t really help. Members of my family who had been helped by chiropractic suggested I shadow a clinic before choosing a degree. That clinic was Back in Action — I shadowed Louis and the team in 2015, saw the difference they were making, and knew this was the path I wanted to follow.
How I work
My goal as a chiropractor is to improve the quality of my patients’ lives — and help them maintain that improvement — whatever their age. That means reducing pain, restoring function, and giving people the understanding and tools to look after themselves between appointments. I take a tailored approach to each patient, explaining clearly what’s going on and what we’re doing about it.
I’m continually extending my skills with further training — including Dry Needling, Fascial Movement Taping (Kinesiology Taping), and Chiropractic Care of the Pregnant Pelvis. I’m registered with the General Chiropractic Council (GCC), the British Chiropractic Association (BCA) and the Royal College of Chiropractors (RCC).
Outside the clinic
I thoroughly enjoy badminton, squash and cricket — mostly racket sports! — which I find a great way to stay fit and have fun. I’m also a keen reader of non-fiction and popular science.
I look forward to working with you.
