With Dr Wayne Elphinstone


Join Dr Wayne Elphinstone and distinguished international faculty for an immersive, in-person workshop exploring the science of longevity, brain health, and cellular regeneration, and how these principles translate into modern clinical practice.

This live workshop brings together cutting-edge research and real-world application, examining how mitochondrial health, cellular energy, gut function, and systemic balance influence cognitive performance, metabolic health, and long-term vitality.

Through a multidisciplinary lens, Dr Elphinstone and esteemed colleague will explore how non-thermal high energy laser therapy, alongside nutrition, lifestyle strategies, vagus nerve stimulation, and gut-health interventions, can be integrated into clinical, wellness, and integrative practice settings to support optimal patient outcomes.


Learning Outcomes

Mitochondria & Cellular Energy

Understand mitochondrial dysfunction as a key driver of ageing and neurodegeneration, and explore how ATP production, oxidative stress, and inflammation influence brain and body performance, including the role of true non-thermal, high-energy laser therapy in cellular efficiency and neurological support.

The Gut–Brain Axis

Discover how the microbiome impacts mood, cognition, and neuroprotection, and how gut dysfunction contributes to chronic inflammation, metabolic disorders, and neurological decline. Learn how violet non-thermal laser wavelengths may support microbiome balance, reduce gut inflammation, and enhance vagal activation.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation & Longevity

Explore the vagus nerve as the critical communication pathway between gut, brain, and body. Dr Elphinstone and esteemed colleague will cover natural stimulation techniques, including breathwork, cold exposure, HRV training, and laser therapy, and their relevance in conditions such as anxiety, chronic fatigue, and metabolic dysfunction.

Nutrition, Circadian Rhythms & Regeneration

Gain insight into how food reactions, sleep quality, and circadian rhythms influence neurological health and longevity. Learn practical strategies to support deep sleep, brain detoxification, and neuroregeneration in modern lifestyles.

Movement, Biohacking & Regenerative Strategies

Examine the spine–brain–gut connection, the role of movement in neurological health, and emerging regenerative tools including non-thermal laser wavelengths, hormetic therapies, and biohacking strategies for cognitive and systemic resilience.


Who should attend

This workshop is designed for clinical, wellness, and integrative practitioners looking to expand their understanding of brain health, gut function, longevity science, and non-invasive regenerative therapies, with practical takeaways that can be applied immediately in practice.


About Dr Wayne Elphinstone

Dr. Wayne Elphinstone is a highly specialized chiropractor and board certified functional neurologist with over 20 years of experience dedicated to treating complex neurological conditions, specifically chronic and vestibular migraines. He is the founder and principal practitioner at Highwoods Chiropractic Clinic in Colchester and the visionary behind Beyond Migraine, an educational platform and home-care system for migraine recovery.

Dr. Elphinstone’s journey began in South Africa, where he graduated with a Master’s degree in Chiropractic from the Durban University of Technology in 2005. His early career included supporting the South African National Cycling team on international tours before he moved to the UK in 2008.

Seeking to bridge the gap between traditional chiropractic and neurological rehabilitation, he completed extensive postgraduate training through the Carrick Institute of Clinical Neuroscience and Rehabilitation. In 2015, he achieved the prestigious designation of Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board (DACNB), a qualification held by a limited number of practitioners globally. He is also a member of the Royal College of Chiropractors (MRCC).
