Dr. Louise Saunders MSc (Chiro) DC
Chiropractic Was A Natural Choice
I was born into a Leicestershire farming family and enjoyed an outdoor lifestyle growing up. I was lucky enough to be able to ride from an early age and take part in many sports.
At school, I had a keen interest in science, biology, nutrition and keeping fit. I knew I also wanted to help people improve their health. So when asked what I wanted to pursue as a career; Chiropractic was a natural choice.
I spent 5 years at the Anglo European College of Chiropractic in Bournemouth where I graduated with a Masters degree in Chiropractic.
Chiropractic Training
The 5 years training included Anatomy, Physiology, Radiology, Neurology and Orthopaedics along with Chiropractic technique and Philosophy. There are many similarities to a degree in medicine, although Pharmacology (the study of drugs and their effects) is substituted for learning about how to assist the body without using drugs.
Following 2 years working as an associate Chiropractor in London, I married my husband Charlie and we emigrated to the island of Anguilla in the Caribbean. I worked on the neighbouring island of St Maarten in an established practice prior to setting up my own practice on Anguilla.
Koren Specific Technique (KST)
Whilst living so close to the United States, I had the wonderful opportunity to undertake some further training in an innovative and exciting Chiropractic technique: Koren Specific Technique (“KST”). KST is a gentle, yet powerful, technique and I have had fantastic results using KST in practice. Sadly due to my husband’s work commitments we had to leave the sunshine behind earlier than expected.
I set up Hungerford Chiropractic Healthcare (“HCH”) in 2005 in a lovely market town with a thriving population situated in a beautiful part of southern England. The people of Hungerford have been very welcoming and after 6 years, I feel very much part of the community.
Passionate in Helping Make Hungerford Healthier
Science tells us the nervous system controls how our bodies function. With the effect Chiropractic has on removing interference from the nervous system, I believe Chiropractic has a significant role to play in attaining and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. At HCH, we are passionate in helping make the population of Hungerford and West Berkshire healthier and happier.
Chiropractic plays a significant part in my life; no more so than when I was pregnant and our daughter Celina was born at home in 2009. Celina had her first Chiropractic adjustments at 2 days old and receives regular Chiropractic check-ups.
Away From HCH
Away from work, I enjoy cooking (and eating good food including the odd bit of cheeky chocolate!) and walking our energetic cocker spaniel, Tinker. I try to be as healthy as possible; exercising regularly and maintaining a natural diet. A healthy work life balance combined with regular Chiropractic allows me to devote plenty of energy to my family, friends and clients.
