William

William is a dedicated Clinician & Exercise Rehabilitator at The DISC Chiropractors, committed to enhancing patient recovery through tailored exercise programs and Chiropractic interventions. Working at DISC for two years, he oversees multiple patients with musculoskeletal and disc conditions. With a strong background in Sports Therapy, William specialises in designing and implementing personalised exercise regimens that support the chiropractic methods of treatment he provides for patients in the clinic.

Growing up around the Kingston borough, sports have always been essential to him. From a young age, Will started with athletes training at Kingsmeadow building up to representing the borough at cross-country at a regional level.

Football for William was however his main passion, being an Arsenal supporter and looking up to his idol Thierry Henry he pushed himself to play in the Kingston Little League every weekend, his secondary school team Raynes Park High, and then later at University level. Never quite reaching the heights of his hero, Will excelled at martialling the midfield throughout his junior career.

Holding a bachelor’s degree in Sports Therapy from Birmingham University, William’s education, combined with four years of hands-on experience in clinical settings as well as valuable volunteer work for the London Marathon and Ju Jitsui Nationals, which opened him up to the real-life experience of working in a sporting environment.

In his role, William works closely with patients to assess their physical capabilities, understand their specific needs, and develop comprehensive rehabilitation plans that promote strength, flexibility, and overall functional improvement. He utilises a range of techniques, including using the clinic’s vast array of technology, planning and executing corrective exercise programs, functional and stability training and mobility work. Since joining DISC he has furthered his skill levels and achieved further qualifications in Grade-IV Mobilisation as he undergoes his apprentice training towards chiropractic style adjustments to ensure patients achieve optimal outcomes.

William’s approach is holistic, focusing not just on physical recovery but also on educating patients about proper body mechanics, posture, and injury prevention strategies. He is passionate about empowering individuals to take an active role in their recovery process and maintain their health long-term. By integrating exercise rehabilitation with chiropractic care, a synergistic treatment model is provided that addresses the root causes of pain and dysfunction, facilitating faster and more sustainable recovery for patients.

When not in the clinic, William enjoys socialising with friends and family, especially treating them to a nice meal. William’s happy place is firmly located on the white Isle of Ibiza, where he enjoys attending the world-famous music festivals with his long-term girlfriend.

William’s main day-to-day hobby, which he takes great pride in, is weight training in his local gym. Over the past few years, William has been increasing his training level and has unfortunately encountered injuries with his lower back, particularly from deadlifting.

This left him in a lot of pain requiring treatment from his colleagues here at DISC as well as frustrated due to not being able to train for a period and perform basic daily activities like bending down and even putting on his socks. This new empathy for patients has driven and motivated him to educate himself further on proper lifting form and identify the improved techniques needed to prevent injury and provide longevity to his training lifespan. Going to the gym helps him to stay grounded and connected to the principles of health and wellness as he tries to advocate for others in their personal life.
