He worked under Dr Gary Weber from 2003 the end of 2004, then as a locum, until establishing Brompton Chiropractic Clinic in May 2005, later renamed London Chiropractors and relocated to Kensington High Street in 2008.

Clinical Pearl
Hilton’s law (based upon embryological development): states that “a nerve that supplies a joint also supplies the muscles that move the joint, and the skin that covers those muscles”. The skin is the largest organ of the body, and all parts of the skin have a nerve supply in a healthy human. Further, every type of nerve to the body (Somatic, reflex & autonomic) has to pass through the vertebrae. In the 1960’s the renowned chiropractor Dr CS Gonstead, taught other chiropractors to look for several trophic changes, including, peu de’orange, texture of bruised fruit, and other signs including skin rigidity over spinal lesions. In the late 1990’s Czech doctors K Lewit and A Kobesová demonstrate how to diagnose and manually treat these rigid skin lesions and soft tissues areas affected by root nerve irritation.
Further more, lack of sensory feedback (numbness & tingling) can be tested and demonstrated with nerve conduction and pin prick tests, and lack of skin thermoregulation (functional control of temperature) due to nerve interference, can be demonstrated with infrared imagery.
The skin’s sensory nerves react to changes in surface temperature (via spinothalamic tract) by stimulating the control of sweat glands, position of hair on skin, the diameter of blood capillaries below skin, or muscle activity.
