In Memory of Eline Pedersen (Director)
BSc, MSc, Doctor of Chiropractic
Recognised as an award-winning international speaker and exceptional chiropractor, Eline was passionate about helping patients achieve optimal health and wellness. She graduated in 2004 from Anglo-European College of Chiropractic. Eline ensured that patients were at the centre of their healthcare -respected, informed and offered the best available evidence-based practice from their chosen health team.
Passionate About Helping Women and Children
Eline has dedicated her career to understanding the effect of birth trauma on the developing child, and the pregnant and birthing woman’s health and wellbeing in transition to motherhood. She loved the chiropractic role in the multidisciplinary birthing team, working together for the best possible birth outcome.
In 2014 Eline took the initiative to the now well-recognised nonprofit organisation Birth Forward in Cyprus. The organisation was founded by health professionals, parents and individuals with a common passion for improving the birthing culture and high statistics of interventions at birth.
As the Honorary President of Birth Forward Eline had a passion for promoting awareness of the European Medical Guidelines while supporting the natural birth process when possible.
“Under my presidency, the volunteer organisation is currently working with the partners in several countries and the Ministry of Health in Cyprus to provide information about the creation of the family from conception to when a baby is 6 months old. Through the EU-funded project Baby Buddy Forward this information will be disseminated in five different languages to the multicultural population of the Middle East and Cyprus.”
