Tone Tellefsen Hughes BSc, DC, FCC (paeds), FEAC (Paeds)
Tone Tellefsen Hughes found her passion of Chiropractic when she started treating children. In children she found it was possible to make wider health care changes such as improving infantile colic, constipation and glue ear. She has often found shy and perhaps withdrawn children coming out of their shell and therefore enjoying a new view of life and opportunities not previously thought possible.
It was after treating children and newborns that Tone saw the wider implications of Chiropractic to everyone and felt that this should be spread to a wider public audience and has therefore spent the past 15 years teaching Chiropractors and students about the benefits of Chiropractic care.
Qualifications and experience
Tone Tellefsen Hughes graduated from AECC in 1991 and worked in Sweden for the first two years.
She has worked in the UK since 1993, and in the Godalming area since 1995. Her emphasis is on family care and will treat patients of all ages on a daily basis. Tone feels passionately about Chiropractic care for both pregnant women and children.
She has focused in this area by teaching chiropractors locally and abroad as well as other health practitioners. Tone is also a member of a pregnancy network group called "ACCORD" where the aim is to support and empower women in their pregnancy and after.
One of the subjects she feels most strongly about is pelvic girdle dysfunction and Tone has devoted the past ten ears to improving the awareness and management in this area.
