Job Title:
Neuro-Osteomyologist
Dr. Ashanna Sevin brings over two decades of experience in integrative musculoskeletal and neurological care, blending chiropractic precision with holistic healing and mind-body medicine.
She completed her chiropractic training at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic and earned her doctorate at Life Chiropractic College West in California.

Her care is rooted in deeply attentive, individualized treatment. She draws from a wide spectrum of chiropractic techniques, prioritizing upper cervical care with light, precise adjustments that are both scientifically grounded and intuitively guided. Her work includes cranial and craniofacial release, full spine care using drop-table or deeper-force techniques when appropriate, X-ray analysis, neurological and muscle testing, and advanced extremity care—all delivered within a holistic, educational framework.
Ashanna’s approach is to identify the greatest possible positive change she can offer in each moment, while meeting the body exactly where it is. Her adjustments are delivered with skill, scientific precision, compassion, and heartfelt intention.

A lifelong seeker and student of life, Ashanna is a devoted meditator, dancer, and world traveler. She has explored nearly 50 countries across all seven continents in pursuit of wisdom, healing, and connection—experiences that continue to inform her depth, clarity, and compassion as a practitioner.
Dr Ashanna is a registered Chiropractor in The United States but will be working as an Osteomyoloist in the UK. The reason for this is for someone to call themselves a Chiropractor in the UK they need to be registered with GCC which requires an individual to do a test of competence which only happens at certain times of the year. It may be that Dr Ashanna registered later in the year once settled in Totnes.

Testimonials
Thanks to Claire and Network Spinal Chiropractic my life has changed on so many levels in the few months I have attended. I am a qualified R.N for the past forty years,studying Western,Chinese,Tibetan and Ayurvedic methods of healing but only Network is a genuine holistic framework of healing. I can honestly state this from an experiential point of view as it has affected my life psychologically,physically,emotionally and spiritually for the better. The treatment encourages growth and increases human potential,it opens doors of perception to allow evolving to become a natural step in progress,it all seems effortless as long as the patient is of an open mind and welcomes change. Psychologically I am more conscious,focused,compassionate and equanimous with an increasing positive and loving nature. Physically, I am healthier and fitter, after starting a strict vegetarian diet,restarting Qi Gong and feel stress free- as you are aware my work can be very stressful. Spiritually, I have resumed meditating and rediscovered my thirst for knowledge with a passion I never thought was possible,all of this in just a few short months,astounding progress! My relationships have improved,finances and overall well being have all been radically affected and I thank YOU for helping me to achieve all his and soo much more. However,the biggest insight is there is no more I,Me and Mine but a knowledge of a universal consciousness whereby we will all strive to improve relationships with one another and evolve as a species,A Planetary Consciousness for the benefit of all, With love and Heartfelt Appreciation Martina

Dr Claire is very professional and skilled, within one session I was free of pain, walking straighter and felt more ease in my body. Ive recommended her to dozens of people. I feel lucky to have found her to support me with any aches or pains that present themselves.

"I had the great fortune of meeting chiropractor Claire Ryan as a speaker at a parenting conference recently. She is so engaging and passionate about her field. After two years of getting little help through the NHS, she has already done more for my toddler after two visits to Ola. Jasmine on reception is great, too. She gets down on the floor to play with my toddler to help him feel at ease on arrival. Claire is great with him, and he enjoys being treated by her. That have a great rapport. To my toddler, Claire is putting everything right, one “pop pop” at a time! (I believe the technical term for the instrument is an Activator) My only regret is not finding her sooner!"

"I have a double curvature of the spine (scoliosis), and first went to Claire what must be approximately 9 years ago when I was having multiple problems, for which I was needing to be prescribed diclofenac. After weekly visits for a duration, Claire ‘sorted me out’. It is necessary / advisable for me to receive an adjustment every 4 to 5 weeks, to maintain my spine. I am certain that if I did not, I would end up in the same state again."
