Articles in The Mail and Advertiser

“Does anyone ever come to Barrow-in-Furness on holiday?” This question was asked in Strike, 'Career of Evil', J.K. Rowling’s crime drama which aired recently on the BBC. Francis and Rachel did, and what's more, not long afterwards they moved to Barrow.

They moved more than two hundred and fifty miles, from Bournemouth in Dorset, to set up Furness Chiropractic, liking the place, the people and the beautiful country around it. Their story was printed in The Mail on Monday 5 March (p. 4) and in the Advertiser on Thursday 8 March (front page).

Thank You

We would like to thank everyone who has helped make Furness Chiropractic a reality. Over the past few months we have worked with many wonderful people. We couldn't have done it without you!

The 'Back Man' of Barrow

Local artist Kate Lloyd-Philipps has kindly produced a special edition of her Morecambe Bay map to include the 'back man' of Barrow. It's in reception. Thank you Kate. We love it.

Co-operation is Better than Confrontation

The latest issue of the Journal Chiropractic History includes a paper by Francis entitled 'Co-operation is better than confrontation. An interview with Dr. Michael Howitt Wilson.'

Abstract: In this article extracts from a semi-structured interview with Dr. Michael Howitt Wilson provide a basis for understanding the lived experiences of this English clinician who practised both as a medical doctor and chiropractor. Emergent themes invite the reader to consider positive and negative aspects of tribalism in chiropractic and medicine, the consequences of bold claims by chiropractors on the perceptions of external observers, and approaches to the training of qualified healthcare practitioners in chiropractic.
