Your Health First

Meet Carolyn Smyth - Chiropractor

Right from an early age I knew that I wanted to have a career in healthcare, and it was whilst I was studying in the 6th form, a family friend who had been greatly helped by a local chiropractor, introduced me to chiropractic. I knew then that I had found my true vocation and the rest as they say is history!

I graduated from the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic here in Bournemouth in 1991 and have worked in the surrounding area ever since. I have worked in private practice and within the NHS too. Having had the privilege of being a co- founder and partner in Healthy for Life Chiropractic Bournemouth, I set up my first solo venture Healthfirst Chiropractic in 2014 working in a multidisciplinary Medical Centre in Poole and more recently have added a new location working with the Pro Fusion Therapy team in Ringwood.

Having had three children of my own, my interest in chiropractic paediatrics led me to studying and practicing a form of chiropractic called the NeuroImpulse Protocol and I am now one of just 6 fully certified NIP chiropractors in the UK.NIP has re-ignited the passion I have for chiropractic for people of all ages, and I see it as a real privilege to be able to utilise those skills, to help to make a difference in the lives of those under my care. Studying NIP has also opened my eyes to the vital role our lifestyles make not only to the outcome of chiropractic care, but to our overall health and well being. I believe that the things that have the greatest impact on our health are what we eat, how we move , and how we think!
