Peter Wagenaar, MSc DC - Chiropractor
“I treat the cause rather than the symptoms by getting to the root of the problem”
Peter is our Clinic Principal and Clinic Lead and works in Wrexham, Mold and Chester.
Peter originally gained a BSc(hons) in Physiology but became interested in chiropractic and continued his studying at the AECC University College in Bournemouth, where he gained a Masters in Chiropractic.

Peter enjoys playing cricket for his village cricket team (and treats many of the team too). He is also a qualified hockey umpire being involved in managing local teams, and enjoys tennis, sailing, skiing and running.
Peter enjoys the diversity of treating patients of all ages, shapes and sizes. He is dedicated to providing care to patients of all ages not only with regards to pain but optimising their health.
At an initial appointment Peter takes a thorough medical history and examination. Once taken he will provide an explanation of what has gone wrong and discuss with his patient their expectations and the outcomes they are looking for. Peter then works together with them to achieve their goals. Once the goals are achieved, they agree a maintenance programme to enable those achievements to be long lasting.

Alongside his family, his main loves in life are karate and film making. Brett is a former South African and International Karate Champion and has captained and coached the British and Irish teams.
Brett understands the benefits of chiropractic in not only preventing and assisting recovery from sports injury, but also its effect in optimising sporting performance. He carries this ethos through to each of his patients, working to optimise their health and get them back to not just managing on a daily basis, but being able to do the things that they love. With over 25 years chiropractic experience he has effectively treated a multitude of problems in the young and old, the fit and not so fit.
Brett considers the causative factors which have brought you to his clinic. After taking a thorough history and physical examinations, his personalised treatment will be tailored to you and is likely to include:

“I love being able to help people to be the best version of themselves as possible.”

She is now working part time and her clinical days vary, to enable dad to care for Rowan whilst she is running her clinics. Keeping it in the family, Rowan has already benefited from specialised paediatric treatment in our Chester clinic.
Kristy’s approach to chiropractic is to assess the body as a whole to address the root cause of the problem to provide long term results. This approach not only allows her to address the symptoms and pain presented but to treat any problems before they become symptomatic and allows improvement to overall health and well-being.

Juan Sanchez, British Association of Sport Rehabilitators
“Massage therapy can help maintain a pain free lifestyle”
As an experienced Level 4 Sports Massage Therapist, Juan’s main skill is to help patients getting closer to their goal, along side dealing with specific discomforts such as tightness and stiffness or flexibility issues. He is also currently studying his Level 6 Sport Injury Rehabilitator at Wrexham University. He believes that we are all individuals, and considers it is important to have a holistic approach to everyone from different backgrounds and levels of athleticism.
By relieving muscle tension and stiffness, the massage enhances an individual's overall wellness and a pain free life as well as enhancing sports performance. From a sports performance perspective, this tailored approach improves circulation and accelerates recovery, allowing athletes to perform at their peak. It also helps prevent future injuries by targeting problem areas before they become severe. The integration of therapeutic touch with mindful techniques further enhances the body's ability to heal and perform optimally.
Some techniques that Juan may use include:
- Muscle energy techniques (METs): It is a manual therapy technique where the patient actively uses their muscles against a controlled force applied by the therapist to improve joint mobility and reduce pain.
- Trigger and reflex points release: Commonly known as “knots”, these are hypersensitive areas that present as little palpable “knot” that causes deep ache and discomfort.
- Frictions: This technique aims at reducing pain by promoting scar tissue alignment, stimulating mechanoreceptors for temporary analgesia, and aiding in collagen repair through fibroblast activity.
- Passive stretching: Assisted passive stretching can help achieving a more aligned and symmetrical function of the muscles that may have restricted movement as well as helping with pain management.
- Muscle activation techniques: such as percussion, aims at activating the neuromuscular system prior to performing sports.
- Muscle relaxation techniques: such as effleurage and petrissage which aims at reducing pain, relaxing muscles and soft tissue and promoting tissue healing and general recovery by improving blood circulation and well-being.
Juan is originally from Argentina, raised in Spain and has resided in the UK since 2016. In his free time he enjoys going to the gym, swimming and playing drums. He is fascinated by sports physiology and helping people reach their fitness goals as well as promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Juan works in our Wrexham clinic.

Clinic Partners
We feel it’s very important to be able to recommend additional services which complement the work of our in-house clinical team.
Within the clinic we are very lucky to have an experienced team of "talking therapy" therapists, who support the mental health of our patients. Our chiropractors use the biopsychosocial model of medicine which take a holistic approach to our health - looking at the underlying causes, lifestyle & background to pain rather than a medical symptomatic approach which addresses symptoms only. An important part of this holistic approach is focus in on pain being both a physical and a mental manifestation of a problem.
