Meet the Family Chiropractic Team

Michael Lucas BSc (Hons)

Ashford Chiropractor and Company Director

Coming from a family that is very much involved in the healthcare industry, I always felt destined to do something within the healing professions. My journey to becoming a chiropractor however, really began as a patient myself. I sustained a very bad whiplash injury after being side-struck by a Volvo (a very well built Volvo I should add) and proceeded to suffer needlessly for several months, trying various treatments without success, before someone advised me to try chiropractic care. Needless to say, the results spoke for themselves, and from that point onward there was no confusion about what I wanted to do for a living.

I graduated from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic in 2007 before moving to Kent to help grow our very popular clinic in Ashford.

Through this centre, I have continued to further develop my skill set and knowledge base, with a particular interest in postural correction and scoliosis management, paediatric care, as well as being a keen educator of my clients in regard to nutrition and general wellness strategies.

I look forward to helping you not only alleviate your symptoms but also open your eyes to the many health benefits that chiropractic has to offer

Henry Underdown BSc

Chiropractor

From a young age, I’ve always been fascinated by how the human body moves and adapts, particularly how the right balance of structure and function can have such a positive effect on health. That interest grew into a genuine passion for helping people overcome pain, move better, and feel more confident in their bodies.

I went on to study at AECC University College in Bournemouth for 5 years, where I completed my Master of Chiropractic degree and gained hands-on experience treating a wide range of patients. During this time, I developed a strong interest in rehabilitation, postural correction, and sports-related injuries, focusing on combining manual therapy with exercise and education to achieve lasting results.

My approach to care is evidence-based and patient-centred. I believe that every individual deserves a plan that’s tailored to their specific needs and goals, whether that’s returning to sport, managing long-term pain, or simply improving day-to-day function.

Outside of the clinic, I’m also passionate about, rugby, football and golf, which continually inspire my understanding of movement, performance, and recovery. I look forward to helping you not only relieve your symptoms but also discover how chiropractic care can enhance your overall well-being.

Callum Rogers (MSc CSP HCPC)

Physiotherapist

My journey as a clinician started with a love of sports and the reality of being injury-prone. Those early setbacks sparked my curiosity about how the body heals—and inspired me to help others move with confidence and strength.
After graduating with a BSc in Sports Therapy from the University of East London, I gained valuable hands-on experience through volunteering with and working at rugby and football clubs, including Charlton Athletic. At Charlton, I provided pitch-side support and managed injury assessments and rehabilitation for young athletes. To expand my expertise, I returned to University to gain my MSc in Physiotherapy. I work in the private healthcare sector, treating a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.

Alongside my professional development, I faced personal challenges after rupturing my ACL and undergoing multiple surgeries and reconstructions. These experiences have given me a deeper understanding and empathy as a clinician, fuelling my resilience and passion for supporting others through their rehabilitation journeys.

Practice Manager

Collette previously worked part-time at Family Chiropractic in 2010 and was excited to return full time in 2017, after spending 7 years working in schools. She firmly believes that regular chiropractic care brings a whole range of health benefits and has never felt better! Her children all have regular care and understand and appreciate the many benefits that regular adjustments bring. Collette enjoys being active in her spare time and attends regular spin and fitness classes which complement her regular chiropractic care.

Receptionist & Clinic Assistant

I recently joined the Family Chiropractic team and love being part of such a friendly and supportive environment. After years of working alone, it’s a joy to meet new people every day and be part of a team.

I’ve just started my chiropractic journey, and I’m thrilled with the results so far—it’s made me even more passionate about the care we provide.

Outside the clinic, I run a small cake business creating bespoke wedding and celebration cakes. I also enjoy spending time in the countryside with my dogs, travelling when I can, and spending time with my four lovely grandchildren.
