Chiropractic
An alternative medicine diagnosing, and treating pain, symptoms and prevention of conditions arising from the nervous and muscular system.
Conditions we help treat…
Back Pain
If you are experiencing the misery of back pain, you are not alone. Back pain affects around 80% of people at some stage during their lifetime.
Sciatica
If you are suffering from pain, numbness or a tingling sensation that radiates from your lower back and travels down one of your legs then it’s likely you are suffering from sciatica.
Headaches & Migraines
Headaches and migraines can affect all people at some time in their lives. Occasional suffering is bad enough, but regular head pain can make life debilitating.
Neck Pain
If you suffer from neck pain it’s important that you know that are not alone, with two-thirds of the population having neck pain at some point in their lives it’s one of the most common symptoms that we treat people for.
Hip Pain
Our hips are invaluable to our body and the many functions it performs. Since our hips are engaged in nearly every way we move, pain located in this area can have very debilitating consequences.
Arthritis
There’s no getting away from the fact that life with arthritis can be difficult. But by making a few simple adjustments it is possible to take control and lead a full and active life.
Fibromyalgia
If you are one of the 1.5 million people in the UK currently suffering with Fibromyalgia and its many symptoms such as loss of spine movement, muscle tightness and heightened pain in joints, we can help you!
How chiropractic can help
Pain Relief:
Chiropractic care is renowned for its effectiveness in managing pain, particularly in the back, neck, and joints. By correcting misalignments in the spine, chiropractors help reduce nerve interference, relieving pain and discomfort without the need for medications or surgery.
Improved Mobility:
Many individuals experience restricted movement due to musculoskeletal issues. Chiropractic adjustments enhance joint mobility and flexibility, promoting better range of motion and allowing you to move with greater ease.
Posture Correction:
Modern lifestyles often lead to poor posture, causing a range of health issues. Chiropractic care focuses on correcting spinal misalignments, helping to improve posture and prevent associated problems such as back pain and headaches.
Stress Reduction:
Chronic stress can manifest physically, leading to tension and discomfort. Chiropractic adjustments promote relaxation and help the body manage stress more effectively, contributing to an overall sense of well-being.
Holistic Health Approach:
Chiropractic care takes a holistic approach to health, recognising the interconnectedness of the body’s systems. By addressing the root cause of symptoms, chiropractors aim to enhance the body’s natural healing abilities.

At our chiropractic clinic, we aim to make your first visit comfortable and informative. Here’s what you can expect during your new patient consultation:
Your Health History
We begin with a warm welcome and a short health history form, where you’ll share the challenges you’re facing and your health goals. You can complete this form at the clinic or in advance, as we’ll send it to you via email before your appointment.
Chiropractic Examination
Your chiropractor will perform a thorough examination, including orthopaedic, neurologic, and functional tests. This will include a posture assessment to evaluate how well your body is moving and functioning.

During the exam, we will assess your spine to identify areas of restriction and nerve interference that could be impacting your overall health and causing pain.
X-ray Imaging
If needed, we’ll take X-rays to provide a clearer picture of your spinal health. These are included in your consultation fee and will help us make an accurate diagnosis.
We look forward to helping you on your journey to better health!
Report of Findings
Your Report of Findings is an essential part of your chiropractic care journey, scheduled as your follow-up appointment after the initial consultation. This visit is dedicated to reviewing the results of your chiropractic examination and any X-rays taken. Here’s what to expect:
Explanation
During this follow-up appointment, your chiropractor will provide a detailed explanation of the findings from your consultation and X-rays. We will walk you through the results step-by-step, ensuring that you fully understand what was discovered about your spinal health, posture, and any areas of dysfunction that could be affecting your well-being.
Root Cause Analysis
Rather than just addressing symptoms, we focus on identifying the root cause of your health issues. We’ll explain how restrictions in your spine or nervous system could be impacting your body’s ability to function optimally, causing discomfort or limiting your mobility.
“Establishing the root cause for your symptoms is the single most important part of your care.”
Customised Care Plan
Based on the findings, your chiropractor will recommend a personalised care plan designed to address your specific needs and health goals. This plan may include a series of chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue treatments, lifestyle changes, and exercises to help restore balance, reduce pain, and improve overall health.
Time for Questions
We believe that informed patients make the best decisions about their health. That’s why we encourage you to ask any questions you may have. Whether it’s about the diagnosis, treatment options, or long-term benefits of chiropractic care, we’re here to provide clarity and reassurance.
Next Steps: Your First Treatment
If you choose to move forward, you can begin your care right away with your first chiropractic adjustment at this appointment (treatment costs apply).
Your Report of Findings appointment sets the foundation for a successful and effective chiropractic care journey, giving you a clear understanding of your health and the path to recovery.
Chiropractic Treatment
Your first chiropractic treatment marks the beginning of your journey toward improved health and wellness. If you decide to proceed with care after the Report of Findings, we can begin treatment immediately. Here’s what you can expect during your first session:
Chiropractic Adjustments
At the heart of chiropractic care is the adjustment, a highly specific and gentle technique aimed at restoring proper alignment and movement to your spine. During this initial adjustment, your chiropractor will apply precise, controlled force to areas of the spine that were identified as misaligned or restricted during your examination. This helps to reduce pressure on your nerves, improve mobility, and support the body’s natural healing process.
Personalised to Your Needs
Each treatment is tailored specifically to your condition and comfort level. Your chiropractor will take into account the findings from your consultation and adjust their technique accordingly.
Immediate Benefits
Many patients begin to experience the benefits of chiropractic care from their very first treatment. You may notice improvements in your range of motion, reduced discomfort, or a feeling of overall well-being and relaxation. While these immediate effects can be encouraging, it’s important to remember that healing is a process, and regular adjustments are needed to achieve long-term results.
“Chiropractic is one of the best ways to keep your body and spine healthy, in a totally natural way.”
Addressing Any Concerns
We understand that starting any new treatment can raise questions or concerns, especially if it’s your first time receiving chiropractic care. Before beginning, your chiropractor will explain the adjustment technique and answer any questions you might have. Our goal is to ensure you feel comfortable and confident about the care you’re receiving.
Setting the Stage for Healing
Your first treatment is an important milestone in your chiropractic care journey. It sets the stage for your body to begin healing naturally. The adjustments are designed to relieve stress on the nervous system, allowing your body to function better and recover from injury or discomfort. With consistent care, you’ll notice more lasting changes in your posture, mobility, and overall health.
Planning for Future Visits
At the end of your first treatment, we’ll schedule your next visit based on the personalised care plan discussed during the Report of Findings. Consistency is key to achieving long-term results, so we will work with you to create a schedule that fits your lifestyle while ensuring you get the most out of your treatment.
Starting your chiropractic care journey is a proactive step toward restoring balance and optimising your health. We are here to support you every step of the way as you experience the powerful benefits of chiropractic adjustments!
Maintenance & Ongoing Wellness
While chiropractic care can provide quick relief from pain and discomfort, its true power lies in consistent, ongoing care. Much like maintaining a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise, chiropractic maintenance is crucial for long-term health, mobility, and well-being.
Here’s why regular chiropractic care is so important:
Preventing the Recurrence of Issues
After addressing the initial problem, ongoing chiropractic care helps prevent the recurrence of symptoms. Whether it’s back pain, neck stiffness, or headaches, spinal misalignments and nervous system interference can return over time, especially if lifestyle factors or daily activities contribute to the strain.
Regular chiropractic adjustments keep your spine in optimal alignment, reducing the likelihood of future flare-ups.
Supporting Spinal Health and Posture
Your spine plays a central role in maintaining your overall health. Poor posture, repetitive movements, and even stress can lead to spinal misalignments that impact the nervous system. By maintaining regular chiropractic visits, you help preserve good spinal alignment, supporting healthy posture and relieving pressure on nerves. This ensures your body continues to function at its best.
Enhancing Mobility and Flexibility
As we age, it’s common for joint mobility and flexibility to decrease. Routine chiropractic care can help counteract this process by improving joint function and movement. Regular adjustments keep your joints mobile, preventing stiffness and helping you maintain an active and pain-free lifestyle.
“Ongoing chiropractic care is an investment in your future health.”
Boosting Overall Wellness
Chiropractic care isn’t just about pain relief—it’s about enhancing your overall quality of life. Regular adjustments help your body function more efficiently by improving communication between the brain and the rest of your body. This can lead to increased energy levels, better sleep, improved immune function, and an overall sense of well-being.
Managing Stress and Improving Mental Health
The nervous system plays a vital role in how we handle stress. Misalignments in the spine can disrupt the balance of your nervous system, leading to increased tension, irritability, and a lowered ability to cope with stress. Ongoing chiropractic care helps keep your nervous system in balance, promoting mental clarity, relaxation, and better stress management.
Protecting Against Injuries
For those who lead active lifestyles—whether you’re an athlete, a weekend warrior, or simply enjoy regular exercise—ongoing chiropractic care can be invaluable in preventing injuries. By keeping your spine aligned and your body functioning properly, you reduce the risk of injury, ensuring your body can recover more quickly from the demands of physical activity.
Maintaining the Benefits of Care
Chiropractic care is a cumulative process, meaning the more consistent you are with your treatments, the more significant and lasting the benefits will be. Maintenance care helps you retain the progress you’ve made in addressing your initial concerns, allowing you to enjoy the long-term benefits of improved health and wellness.
Customising Your Maintenance Schedule
Your chiropractor will work with you to create a customised maintenance schedule based on your individual needs, health goals, and lifestyle. Whether you require monthly visits or less frequent check-ups, this proactive approach ensures that your spine and nervous system remain in top shape.
