Fleur Borrelli

Fleur Borrelli

Nutritional Therapist and Psycho-Neuro-Immunologist

HCPC Registered | CSP Member | PelviPower Certified Practitioner

Fleur is very involved in weight management and the restoration of optimal health by providing the right environmental conditions that you are genetically designed for. To this end, she has co-written the hugely successful book 'The In-Sync Diet' with the actress Glynis Barber.

She has also done a lot of work in the field of autoimmune disease, fibromyalgia and gluten intolerance. She recognises that food contains thousands of healing plant chemicals that can make the difference between health and disease.

Her strong emphasis is on an anti-inflammatory approach and the regulation of blood sugar levels. She believes this focus will help to stem the tide of chronic lifestyle related illnesses such as chronic fatigue, depression, type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, allergies and intolerances and neuro-degeneration. It will also enhance physical performance allowing athletes to achieve new levels of fitness whilst reducing muscle damage and injury.

Mikael Porath Petersen

Mikael Porath Petersen

Chiropractor

Mikael’s journey into chiropractic began after a serious back injury led him to discover the transformative power of spinal care. He graduated from the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in 1997 and immediately began working with professional athletes, including members of the Danish National Football Team. Never one to shy away from a challenge, Mikael is currently working with an Olympic swimmer dealing with nerve irritation affecting her muscle strength—a case he’s confident will end with her back on the podium.

His early work with elite athletes revealed that chiropractic is not only effective for relieving pain and restoring nerve function—it also unlocks the body’s full potential when the spine is free from interference. This insight has shaped Mikael’s lifelong commitment to helping both athletes and the general public achieve optimal performance and well-being.

In recent years, Mikael has focused on postural correction and the relationship between foot mechanics, gait, and spinal function. His deep passion for chiropractic remains unchanged, and when asked what he would do if he weren’t a chiropractor, he answers without hesitation: “I would still be a chiropractor.”

A strong advocate for education, Mikael regularly gives talks at companies, schools, sports clubs, and interest groups throughout London. He also hosts weekly posture and health seminars at his clinic, emphasizing that many of today’s common health issues could be prevented—or significantly improved—through simple lifestyle changes. “Education,” he says, “is the most important part of my job.”

Known for his warm bedside manner, Mikael credits his early experience working weekends in a Danish nursing home for shaping his compassionate approach to patient care. Today, he continues to deepen his expertise by traveling globally to attend seminars led by top chiropractic researchers and thought leaders.

Mikael lives by the principle that the best chiropractors understand not just what to do, but how and why they do it.
