Meet the team

OUR TEAM
All of our Chiropractors have excellent qualifications to postgraduate level. You'll find more information about each member of our team below.

Elaine Cooke DC MCC Memb.BCA
I have developed my skills in General Chiropractic care over the past 20 years. I graduated from the Anglo-European Chiropractic College, Bournemouth in 1989 and worked for a year in Winchester before taking up the reins of Homewood Chiropractic. In my spare time, I am an avid gardener and animal lover, with ponies and dogs forming part of my extended family.

Max Atkinson DC BSc (Chiro) MCC
I worked for a year in Salisbury and joined Homewood in 1996. I have undertaken a diploma in Extremity Technique. I have also trained in dry needle therapy and the prescription of orthotics. I graduated with Distinction from the Anglo-European Chiropractic College, Bournemouth in 1995.

Lisa Ennor BSc (Hons) DC MCC
I graduated from the Welsh Institute Of Chiropractic in 2006. I joined Homewood Chiropractic shortly after graduating and have enjoyed becoming part of the team here.

Lee Ayres DC, BSc (Hon), MChiro
I graduated from the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in 2005. As well as my interest in general practice, I have a particular interest in sports injuries in general, but especially the treatment of football and golf injuries, and I have regularly treated players from Chesterfield Football Club. In my spare time I enjoy playing football and golf and played for Fareham Town for two years before moving to Bournemouth to study.

Reception Team
Donna, Nicky, Leanne, Jenny, Ruth and Becky ….all look forward to making you feel very welcome here at Homewood Chiropractic. We enjoy meeting all our patients, some of whom have been coming here for many years, and will do all we can to ensure that your visit is comfortable and enjoyable. Donna heads up the team and also somehow finds time for her role as clinic and accounts manager.

Donna Mills
I trained as a massage therapist in 2005 and have since enjoyed treating our patients here at Homewood. The Chiropractors will often refer patients they feel would benefit from massage therapy to myself or my colleague…. Massage therapy supports the patient’s recovery and provides an ideal compliment to chiropractic treatment. Homewood is a part of my family and many of my patients have become my firm friends. I love my job immensely. Outside of work I enjoy being 'Mum's Taxi Service', socilaising and eating out.

Heidi Wicks
Originally trained as a Landscape Architect, I recently decided on a career change and soon found myself managing a chiropractic clinic in London. I really enjoyed having an input into the management of the business and seeing it grow rapidly. Here at Homewood, I've largely taken on a marketing role with the development of our new website, a re-branding exercise and the production of new literature taking priority. I have developed several new initiatives including an electronic newsletter and text message appointment reminders. Outside of work, I love spending time on the beach at Southsea with my little boy and my Portuguese Water dog.I'm looking forward to the arrival of my second child this August! As a freelance consultant, I offer marketing/promotional work to local small businesses, and am especially interested in using the internet, e-newsletters and social networking for business.
