He has been in practice since 1992 and has professionally helped everyone from newborns, children, teens, and adults of all ages with a wide array of things such as colic, newborn subluxations, asthma, ADD/ADHD, focus, dyslexia, physical development, menstrual problems, scoliosis, posture development, sports injury, athletic performance and recovery times, vision problems, range of motion, coordination problems, diabetes, weight issues, neck/back/joint pain, chronic and terminal illnesses, organ function, strength/mobility/flexibility, mental/emotional health, and much more. Dr. Michael believes in getting to the root of a problem because the patient will benefit far more from its resolution rather than trying to artificially suppress symptoms. Working with your body to help it become well and be well and live life at your best is the prime focus. Dr. Michael's father, Dr. Desmond Pim, originally from Northern Ireland, practiced chiropractic, acupuncture, naturopathy, osteopathy and herbalism in Reading, Berkshire for 48 years and retired in 2010. Dr. Michael, his brother Dr. Richard, and his sister Dr. Fiona all graduated as doctors of chiropractic from the fountainhead of the profession - Palmer Chiropractic College in Davenport, Iowa, USA. Dr. Michael's son, Christopher Pim completed his chiropractic degree from AECC in Bournemouth and is a third-generation doctor of chiropractic. By choice, Dr. Michael removed himself from the General Chiropractic Council (GCC) in December 2021. This decision reflects his commitment to practicing chiropractic care with integrity and staying true to the profession’s foundational principles. His extensive qualifications, international recognition, and ability to provide exceptional natural health care remain unwavering. At Health and Wellness Centres, we are honored to offer care rooted in Dr. Michael’s unparalleled experience and lifelong dedication to empowering patients on their journey to optimal health naturally. |
