Michael Freeston

I am a native Londoner with a professional background in research and statistics (Data Analyst for the UK Department of Education, Masters from Kent University in Research Methodology, Vice President of the London Education Research Network etc.). My Chiropractic journey began after getting sick and finding relief in 2014 from Dr. Mark Mullan (WIOC) and Dr. Hart (WIOC). In 2015, I moved to Spain to study at the Barcelona College of Chiropractic, graduating just after the pandemic and opening my clinic in Sept 2020. During school I took advantage of all the seminars the I could (see below). My Barcelona clinic is successful and I have people interested in taking over from me, freeing me up to move and work with other people. I have the opportunity to open a second clinic in Tarragona (I have 50 patients there, I rent a room to adjust them two Fridays per month). My goal is to manage / sell my clinic from a distance, while working as an associate with somebody else. In school, I set myself the challenge of opening my own clinic and making it successful. Now that I have accomplished that, I am exploring options so that I can learn from and share with other Chiropractors. I am open to temporary or permanent positions.

I work out regularly and play the guitar. I write non-fiction, fiction, poetry, and short stories. I am currently single but want to settle with a family.
