Meet Dr. Imran – Chiropractor, Movement Optimiser & Wellness Enthusiast

From a young age, I’ve been passionate about health, nutrition, and sport. I played competitive cricket for years until a serious back injury changed everything. That injury introduced me to chiropractic care, and it didn’t just help me heal, it inspired me to make it my profession.

I graduated with distinction from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic (University of South Wales, UK) over 9 years ago, and began my career in Manchester, UK.

In 2021, I took my expertise abroad to Dubai, where I’ve had the privilege of treating a diverse range of clients from VIPs to pro athletes, families to busy professionals including Emirates airlines crew. I now split my time between Manchester and Dubai, continuing to care for clients in both cities.

I love working with people of all ages and backgrounds. Whether you’re dealing with back pain, looking to improve your posture, or trying to prevent injuries and stay active, I tailor my treatments to suit your unique needs. My approach is holistic and hands-on, combining a range of techniques including:

  • Diversified Spinal Adjustments
  • Manual Therapy & Joint Manipulations
  • Dry needling & Soft tissue mobilisation
  • Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT)
  • The Activator Method (gentle, low-force technique)

I’m also a member of the International Federation of Sports Chiropractic (ICSC) and completed Functional Medicine course (AFMCP), which allows me to support my clients beyond the clinic through nutrition, lifestyle changes, and long-term health planning.

I practice what I preach, getting regular chiropractic care myself to stay active and energised. My vision is to make chiropractic care a normal part of everyday wellbeing.

If you’re ready to prioritise your health, I’d love to help you move better, feel stronger, and live well.

Lily Ogden (MChiro, Doctor of Chiropractic)

My journey into chiropractic began through my own experience in sport. I played football for many years and, like many athletes, dealt with my fair share of injuries. It was during this time that I was first introduced to chiropractic care, and the results were eye-opening. I was fascinated by how effectively it supported my recovery, enhanced my performance, and improved my overall well-being—all without the need for surgery or medication.

This experience inspired me to pursue a career in chiropractic. I went on to spend five years studying at university in South Wales, where I also had the opportunity to work with local rugby and football teams. During this time, I further developed my skills by gaining additional qualifications in sports massage and taping. I graduated with First Class Honours and earned the title of Doctor of Chiropractic.

Today, I’m passionate about helping people reduce pain, improve mobility, and live healthier lives through natural, hands-on care.

Outside the clinic, I love travelling, discovering new cultures and cuisines, going on long walks with my dog, and spending quality time with family. And of course, I never miss a chance to watch football, especially when Stockport County are playing!

 

Dr Débora Marques (MChiro, Doctor of Chiropractic)

Chiropractic was first introduced to me as a young child, maybe around 7 years old. My mom has been working as a Chiropractic Assistant in Lisbon for as long as I can remember and because of that our whole family had chiropractic care.
I truly don’t think I’ve known a more avid supporter of Chiropractic as my mom is, and in many ways I think she’s a big reason why it piqued my interest.

At some point in high school I knew I wanted to pursue a career in health care. I just didn’t know what. Health, exercise, natural remedies, nutrition, etc have always been things I’ve been interested in, which meant I needed to find something that took on a more wholesome approach to health. And to me that was chiropractic. The more I visited my chiropractor or saw my amazing results it sparked this joy. My headaches, and neck aches were better, I could focus more in school, my body felt stronger and I just felt better in general. And I saw that same awareness on other people’s faces that walked out of the same clinic my mom worked at.

I decided I wanted to do that for other people too, so in August of 2013 I packed up all my belongings, cried until I couldn’t anymore as I said goodbye to everything I knew and flew across the Atlantic ocean to Traverse city, Michigan. I really didn’t know what “cold” meant until I moved there. After three years, I pushed through many snowy days and finished my Pre-medicine (ASA) credits to transfer to Sherman College of Chiropractic.

Once again I packed all my belongings and moved to Spartanburg, South Carolina where I made friendships for life and after four years of perseverance I proceeded to finish my Doctorate of Chiropractic.

It’s ironic that for such a home-body I’ve moved quite a lot and here I am doing it again. This time Cheshire, England! I couldn’t be more excited for the opportunity to serve this community through the blessing that is chiropractic.

Natalie (Clinic Assistant)

I first discovered chiropractic care in 2015, when attending hypnobirthing classes. My teacher said that ‘in an ideal world, every pregnant woman would see a chiropractor.’ I’ve been a practice member at BodyEvolve ever since and the improvement in my wellbeing has been fantastic.

I worked in various roles in the banking and insurance industry for 17 years and then became a stay-at-home mum, my favourite job but definitely the most challenging! When I saw there was an opportunity to become part of the BodyEvolve team in 2020, I knew I had to apply.

I’ve always had a keen interest in wellness and the human body, but I have always thought it would be a lovely place to work with a real family feel!

On a personal note, I enjoy cooking (and eating), strength training, travel and reading.

Lauren (Clinic Assistant)

I am one of the friendly faces on the front desk, I love being part of such a positive, people focused environment. I have experienced the benefits of chiropractic care both personally and as a parent. It helps me feel more relaxed, think more clearly and better manage my hypermobility. It has become an important part of how my whole family stay healthy and balanced.

Outside of work I’m all about family time, finding joy in little things (preferably with sunshine and a good coffee). I spent 10 years previous as a infant feeding volunteer, supporting families through their early parenting journey. I enjoy connecting with people and sharing a laugh or two!

Megan (Clinic Assistant)

My journey with chiropractic care began at age 15, following my first hip arthroscopy after struggling with hip issues from the age of 11. Since then, chiropractic has played a consistent and vital role throughout my recovery following multiple surgeries. I became a patient at BodyEvolve in 2020, and when the opportunity came up to join the team in 2024, it felt like a perfect fit. I already knew how great the team were and how much better I felt after my visits—so being able to support others on their own wellness journeys brings me real joy.
Outside of work, I love travelling, reading, walking, and watching football (especially Manchester City!). My passion for travel began on family holidays and eventually led me to spend four summers working at a camp in Texas, USA—an experience I’ll never forget and one I love chatting about.
I’ve explored much of Europe, as well as Brazil, Thailand, the Philippines, Australia, and New Zealand. While I’m not a fan of cooking, I definitely enjoy eating—especially Thai food or a classic Sunday roast!

Livia (Sports Massage Therapist)

My name is Livia, I’m an established sports massage therapist with over 5 years of experience in the industry.

I have honed my knowledge and skills by working alongside chiropractors and physiotherapists at various multidisciplinary clinics throughout Greater Manchester. I am proudly the head massage therapist at Stockport Rugby Club, and assist players in keeping them injury free and performing at their best.

As well as a passion for rugby and sports related injuries, I also love to help people by reducing their pain, improving mobility and supporting their rehabilitation process.

I look forward to being part of your journey to better health and wellness.
