About us

Ben Parsons joined the clinic in 2012, with Tamzin Parsons joining in 2018, and Zac Cole joining in 2023. Ben, Tamzin and Zac took over as owners in 2023.

Ben Parsons

He is a keen sportsman and enjoys watching and playing most sports. He played county level Rugby as a youngster and currently plays Squash for Burton Tennis and Squash club.
As well as being an expert in spinal injury and rehabilitation, Ben has a particular interest in the treatment and rehabilitation of sporting injuries and the shoulder.

He has subsequently helped his patients achieve sporting excellence by treating their injuries and keeping them fit, to be able to perform at a high level. He is also versed in the use of medical acupuncture and low level laser therapy.
Tamzin Parsons
MChiro DCTamzin has been practicing in Staffordshire since graduating from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic in 2012. She first became interested in Chiropractic when she saw how much it helped her parents. They’d shuffle into the office bent over in pain and walk out of the treatment room standing straight and feeling a lot better.
Due to her empathetic and caring nature, Tamzin enjoys working with all patients but with a particular interest in pregnant women and the elderly. Tamzin finds it extremely rewarding being a chiropractor and especially loves how chiropractic finds and treats the cause of the problem and not just the symptoms. She undertook a postgraduate course in medical acupuncture and likes using these new skills in her treatment plans.
Zac Cole
MChiro DCZac graduated from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic in 2017 and has been working in Stoke on Trent since. He joined Essington clinic in 2023. Zac first heard of Chiropractic when he was trialling for the Great Britain under 18’s rowing squad. He was training too hard and frequently for his body to keep up. During this he was having regular chiropractic care to help him to achieve more, whilst helping reduce the pain that limited his performance. This sparked an interest for Zac in the mechanics of the human body and how Chiropractic can help improve this, not only to reduce pain but to improve function to reach your goals.
Zac uses his experience to tailor his treatment plan to each individual, looking at what their goals are and working out the best way to get there. He has a particular interest in encouraging his patients to keep active and helping them with their fitness achievements or goals. Zac can often be found out hiking in the Peak District or out on the golf course!
