Subject

Chiropractic

Take the next step towards a successful career in Chiropractic with Greater London’s exclusive Chiropractic course. Develop your diagnostic, research and clinical skills to enable you to correctly identify, treat, and prevent disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system, and, in doing so, to transform your patients’ lives.
You’ll be learning in our brand new dedicated Chiropractic facilities. You’ll also have the chance to observe clinical practice from the very first year of the course with annual clinical placements forming a core part of the course.

Plus, our public facing Chiropractic clinic will give you first-hand experience of working with patients, and growing community connections. With an increasing demand for Chiropractors and The British Chiropractic Association (BCA) pledging to increase the number of UK chiropractors from 3,100 to 5,000 by 2025 by 60%, there’s never been a better time to study with us.
