Our Chiropractors
Dr Ally Fry MChiro DC
Doctor of Chiropractic
Ally's interest in Chiropractic began when she was exposed to the profession as a young elite gymnast due to a major hip injury. It was a Chiropractor that allowed her to avoid surgery for this and continue her training.
Further treatment and rehabilitation enabled her to maintain optimum function and performance when not injured, and return to sport and competition following a later ankle surgery.
This broad range of issues that Chiropractic had been able to address made Ally realise this was a profession she needed to be a part of to provide the same help to other people that she had received.
From her past experience Ally was well aware of the benefits Chiropractic care could provide for elite athletes. But throughout her 5 years studying at AECC university she saw the wider benefits of Chiropractic care for all ages from newborns, who she worked closely with on a paediatric placement, all the way through to her older patients who she helped to improve and maintain their physical function.
During her studies Ally worked as a level 3 sports massage therapist and extended her skills by undertaking further training in pregnancy massage. Prior to this she was a gymnastics and tumbling coach working with pre-school children through to elite gymnasts for 5 years giving her a unique insight into the demands of the sport.
Dr Ben Goodall MChiro LRCC DC
Doctor of Chiropractic
Ben is a chiropractor and a former Great Britain tumbling gymnast, where he was a two-time Junior British Champion and placed 3rd at the World Age Group Championships in Tokyo in 2019.
His career in gymnastics introduced him to Chiropractic, which has played a key role in maintaining his performance at the highest level throughout his athletic career.
While Ben’s background is in elite sport, he has a deep passion for working with individuals of all ages and abilities, from children to retirees, wheelchair users, and stroke survivors. For Ben, Chiropractic is about helping people achieve their personal goals, whether it’s excelling in sport or simply living pain free to enjoy everyday activities like walking the dog.
Ben graduated with First-Class Honours in Chiropractic from the prestigious AECC University College in 2020. Dedicated to continuous learning, he co-authored a paper published in the Journal of Chiropractic & Manual Therapies during the pandemic and currently serves as an associate lecturer at the Health Sciences University in Boscombe.
His current focus is on clinical neuroscience, and he is set to begin a specialised programme with the Carrick Institute in April, studying its applications to pain, dizziness, and optimal function.
