His passion lies in treating patients from all walks of life, with particular expertise in chronic back pain, injury prevention, and restoring optimal function through improved movement.

What Is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic is one of 32 regulated healthcare professions in the UK, sitting alongside physiotherapy, dentistry, and medicine. Regulation ensures that every practitioner meets strict educational and clinical standards — offering patients confidence in their care.

Chiropractors are specialists in diagnosing, treating, and managing musculoskeletal conditions — issues relating to the spine, joints, and muscles. Treatment plans are highly individualised and may include:

  • Gentle spinal manipulation and mobilisation
  • Soft tissue therapy and stretching
  • Dry needle therapy
  • Rehabilitation exercises and posture correction
  • Lifestyle and ergonomic advice

Every chiropractor at The Medical is fully registered with both the British Chiropractic Association and the General Chiropractic Council, ensuring the highest standards of professionalism and care.

A Modern, Evidence-Based Approach at The Medical
At The Medical Bath, chiropractic care is enhanced by cutting-edge assessment technology and a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment.

François and the team combine neurological and orthopaedic testing with advanced motion analysis tools — including FootScan Gait Analysis and 3D Movement Analysis — to build a precise picture of how your body moves. This evidence-based approach allows for a quantifiable assessment of progress and ensures every treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs.As François explains, “We take a ‘top-down and bottom-up’ approach — meaning we assess the body as a whole to identify not just the symptoms, but the true source of the issue.”

Comprehensive Care, All Under One Roof
One of the biggest advantages of The Medical’s model is its multi-disciplinary team. Should additional expertise be required, referrals between practitioners are swift, seamless, and hassle-free.

In addition to chiropractic, patients have access to:

  • Physiotherapy
  • Sports therapy
  • Massage therapy
  • Diagnostic imaging, including access to an Open MRI scanner at The Medical’s sister clinic in Bristol

This joined-up approach ensures you receive coordinated care and clear answers, without long waiting times or unnecessary barriers.
