Meet Livvy

In her free time, Livvy continues to remain very involved in equestrian sport by volunteering regularly with British Eventing in cross-country control towers at different events throughout the year, and owns a horse with local professional event rider and Stride Ahead Sponsored Rider Sarah Gairdner. Sarah and Livvy have high hopes for this youngster. Additionally, Livvy has a mild (self-proclaimed) obsession with board games, and can be found at least a few nights per week down at the town game shop playing various games you’ve never heard of.

Also a part of the team is Livvy’s assistance dog named Atlas. Atlas is a small black labrador and together the team are members of RAD Assistance Dogs (a Leicester-based charity). Atlas performs a handful of tasks to help Livvy and will typically be with Livvy every day, so please feel free to ask any questions you may have. She has a good set up in Livvy’s car dependant on treatment location. If you have any concerns regarding Atlas, please let the team know ahead of your appointment and we will do our best to accommodate.

Livvy graduated with a Master of Chiropractic degree from McTimoney College of Chiropractic in Oxford. She will be running limited clinic hours around her work as an associate at Active Family Chiropractic, a clinic located in Deddington.

Livvy has a special passion for how chiropractic care can benefit athletes in every aspect of their sport from optimising performance to rehabilitative recovery. Having competed in showjumping at the international level with her horses, she experienced first-hand how beneficial chiropractic treatment can be for an athlete’s performance. Livvy will continue her chiropractic education while leaning even further into her passion for animals by completing an MSc in Animal Chiropractic.
