Dr Marliese Symons is a medically qualified homeopath, and the first and only chiropractor in the UK to hold full membership of the Faculty of Homeopathy.
Over 30 years of integrated, natural healthcare. In clinic in Bournemouth, and by video or phone wherever you are in the world.
Homeopathy and wellness consultations work just as well by video or phone. Dr Marliese sees patients across the UK and internationally, and plenty of local patients choose online too, especially parents with young children. Same consultation, same follow-up care, no travelling.
At Backin2Health, we are dedicated to transforming lives through natural, holistic healthcare. Dr Marliese Symons combines over three decades of clinical experience with advanced training across Europe and India, offering integrated care that goes far beyond symptom management.
Our philosophy is rooted in treating you as a whole person: mind, body, and spirit, working alongside your GP to deliver safe, effective, and lasting results.
Dr Marliese specialises in treating complex health conditions, and conditions that do not respond or have not responded to conventional treatment. Many patients come to us having been through every test with nothing found, or having been offered options they did not feel were right for them.
"I have been seeing her for a femoral hernia to shrink it, so I don't have to go into hospital. Through seeing Marliese the hernia has shrunk and the consultant can't feel it, so has said I don't need the operation. I completely trust her judgement and care."

"I have suffered with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility spectrum disorder for as long as I can remember, with it getting worse and worse each year despite years of appointments, scans, physio and more through the NHS. After no progress at all through these avenues I decided to give Dr Symons a chance, and wow, even after just two sessions I feel such a difference. As soon as you step into the clinic you feel at ease and you can tell she genuinely cares and wants to help. Her knowledge on homeopathy and advice has massively helped my chronic pain."
"I was suffering with sinus pain and pressure related headaches. I had been on ibuprofen for months, steroid nasal sprays for 3 months straight and nothing helped. Then I saw Marliese and after one treatment my symptoms reduced by 80%. I have not taken any painkillers for over 2 months."
"I suffered from severe anxiety due to birth trauma and I am literally going from strength to strength mentally and emotionally. I trust her prescribing and opinion completely. The medicine is gentle and I have noticed huge changes in my confidence and am now enjoying my life again and feeling like me!"
"I went to Marliese with daily headaches that no sports massage could shift. Her realignment and stretches have completely removed the underlying cause of the pain! Would recommend to all!"
Yes. Homeopathy and wellness consultations work just as well over Zoom, WhatsApp or the phone, and Dr Marliese sees patients across the UK and internationally this way. Plenty of local patients choose online too, especially parents with young children. You would only need to visit the clinic in Bournemouth for hands-on chiropractic treatment.
Chiropractic is a regulated healthcare profession focused on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders, particularly of the spine. Chiropractors use hands-on adjustments to improve alignment and support your body's natural healing.
Most patients experience little to no discomfort. Dr Marliese uses gentle techniques tailored to your comfort level, including specialised methods for babies and pregnant patients.
We treat a wide range including back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint problems, sciatica, pregnancy discomfort, anxiety, allergies, menopause symptoms, and much more through our integrated approach.
"I started seeing Marliese for severe rashes on my hands as I did not want to resort to using steroid creams. I also have hyperthyroidism. She supported me with homeopathic medicine as well as advice on supplementation, diet and gut health. One year later, my hands have improved and my thyroid health has remained stable."

This varies by condition and individual. After your initial consultation, we'll recommend a treatment plan with an estimated timeline. Many patients notice improvement within 2-3 sessions.
"I had been suffering from severe shoulder pain which was also affecting my right arm and upper back, making day to day activities such as getting dressed, carrying my shopping, driving and playing my guitar very painful and sometimes impossible. After 4 sessions and some simple daily exercises, I am pain free."
