In 2011, Sarah Parfitt and Stephanie Smith joined forces to achieve their shared ambition of developing a multidisciplinary private healthcare clinic.
Each member of the SANDS Team has been hand selected and recruited to enable us to deliver our continuous company vision of providing a personable and quality lead healthcare service to the residents of Talbot Green and the surrounding South Wales valleys.
Each practitioner has studied for the minimum of three years to obtain the necessary qualifications, registrations and experience to try and ensure that your physical and mental health remains in tip top condition.
My name is Stephanie Smith and I am a director and co-founder of SANDS Private Health Clinic.
I graduated from the University of South Wales, formerly the University of Glamorgan in 2007 with a bachelor of science degree in chiropractic.
Following graduating in August 2007 I went on to work as a Chiropractor in established private clinics in Port Talbot and Talbot Green, South Wales.
Circumstances at that time then allowed me to purchase Vale Chiropractic, Talbot Green, later in 2007 as my own business. Due to the demand and continued volume of work needed to run and build Vale Chiropractic from a part time clinic into a full-time clinic, I left my job in Beaches Chiropractic, Port Talbot in 2009.
From 2009 onwards, with the help and support of my family, I continued to mould Vale Chiropractic into a multi-disciplinary health care business. This journey then resulted in me meeting Sarah Parfitt in 2011 where we then incorporated podiatry/chiropody into the multi-disciplinary health care services offered at Vale Chiropractic Clinic. In 2012 Sarah and I formed a partnership where we bought the property/offices of Vale Chiropractic at 67 Talbot Road, Talbot Green and established SANDS Private Health Clinic.
Since 2012 Sarah and I have continued to strive to build and promote private multi-disciplinary health care, with us also opening a second clinic in 2015 in Llwynypia, Rhondda. I now work as the principle Chiropractor from both clinics as well as going back to my university roots where I also work as a part time tutor in chiropractic at the University of South Wales.
Sarah Parfitt is a healthcare leader with over 20 years of experience in the industry. She is the founder and Director of Sands Private Health Clinic, where she works to provide the highest quality of care to her patients.
Sarah is a compassionate and skilled healthcare provider, and is dedicated to constantly improving her clinic and the services it offers. As a visionary leader, Sarah inspires her team to excel and is deeply committed to improving the lives of her patients.
I Graduated from WIOC in 2016 with a Master of Chiropractic, and have been working here at SANDS Private Health Clinic since. I take a special interest in sports-related injuries and rehab as well as general complaints.
Amy Baker graduated as a Chiropractor from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic (WIoC) in July this year (2019), following a five-year undergraduate masters degree (M.Chiro).
During her time at university, she completed CPD courses (Continuing Professional Development) which include Upper and Lower Extremity Adjusting, Fascial Movement Taping and OMT Medical Acupuncture, to broaden her knowledge and skills for the forever developing profession of chiropractic.
Chris graduated from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic at the University of Glamorgan in 2001. Over the last 20 years in private practice he has gained a wealth of experience and knowledge in Chiropractic.
He joined the Chiropractic team at SANDS in 2020.
I completed the MChiro degree in 2023 & joined SANDS as a chiropractor soon after. Alongside my chiropractic degree, I have completed additional training in acupuncture & dry needling. I enjoy treating a wide variety of complaints and love to see improvements that can be made to people's lives through chiropractic.
Cameron is studying Sports and Exercise Therapy at USW. He is a qualified Level 4 Sports Masseuse. He also has a Level 2 Fitness Instructor Qualification soon to be Level 3 Personal Trainer. He enjoys all aspects of health, fitness and rehabilitation. When he's not on the pitch himself playing rugby he can be found pitch-side doing first aid on match days.
Massage has been so helpful for me in recovering from injury and also for relaxation and well-being. This inspired me to help others with massage. I trained as a massage therapist in 2019, in Swedish massage, and have since also gained qualifications in deep tissue and sports massage. I love working with people and provide an individualised approach to suit the person, blending the different styles and techniques I have trained in.
