Your Trusted Chiropractor in Newcastle, Northumberland

My practice, established in 1975, specialises in treating humans, horses, and dogs, combining traditional chiropractic principles with animal-specific adaptations. Operating from Bingfield, Northumberland, I serve clients across the UK and internationally, offering tailored spinal adjustments to improve mobility and alleviate pain.My expertise has been trusted by owners and trainers of top racehorses and show jumpers, with treatments often leading to significant improvements in performance and well-being.

Report
Years ago Richard treated my neck pain. The process was painless, the following day I felt as if I'd been run over by a roadroller but my mobility and pain were so much better. In a few days I had normal movement and was pain free.
