Hilton Chiropractor Medical Clinic – Hilton

About Dr Lewis and Dr Ackerman

The Hilton Chiropractic Clinic has a rich history, established in 1983 by Dr Barrie Lewis. With deep roots in naturopathy and a long tradition of health and wellness, the clinic is committed to providing exceptional chiropractic care. The clinic’s story dates back to Dr Barrie’s grandfather, whose experience during the siege of Ladysmith led him to embrace a vegetarian lifestyle. In response to his passion for health, he established a pecan nut farm, avocado orchard, beehives for raw honey, and a fresh fruit farm to sustain his family with healthy, wholesome foods.

Dr Unity Lewis, Dr Barrie’s mother, became a prominent figure in the field after she travelled to the United States in 1938 to study Chiropractic. She met Dr Dick Lewis there, and together, they practised in Pietermaritzburg for nearly fifty years, contributing significantly to the development of chiropractic in the area.

Dr Barrie Lewis followed in his parents’ footsteps, first teaching high school mathematics and science before travelling to Chicago to pursue his studies in chiropractic. After completing his training, he joined his mother in practice in 1981 at 202 Loop Street, Pietermaritzburg, and later expanded with a satellite clinic in Hilton.

In 2003, Dr Barrie moved to the Netherlands for seven years to gain further experience in mainstream chiropractic. Dr Jane Ackerman, who is also Dr Barrie’s daughter, followed her family’s legacy. After completing her schooling at St Anne’s and her chiropractic training at the Durban University of Technology, Dr Ackerman joined the Hilton Chiropractic Clinic in 2010, where she continues to serve the community alongside her family.
