Chiropractic is a healthcare profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system – and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health. Musculoskeletal problems include spinal problems, joint dysfunction and herniated discs.
The number of chiropractors in the UK is expected to rise 60% by 2025 from 3,100 in 2021 to 5,000. This will mean more UK residents can receive treatment for conditions including back and neck pain.
Dr. Mark Langweiler, LSBU Clinic and Course Director in Chiropractic, said, “There’s no better example of LSBU’s mission to transform lives, communities and society than our new Chiropractic Clinic which will treat up to 300 patients a year to improve public health.

LSBU is the only London university to offer Chiropractic courses. Our new Chiropractic Clinic will give our students a head start in their future profession to build successful careers in healthcare.”
