Services
Chiropractic Consultations
Our chiropractic consultations address back pain, neck tension, headaches, and sports injuries through evidence-based spinal manipulation and posture correction. Tailored treatment plans focus on root-cause resolution, combining manual therapy with rehabilitation exercises. Ideal for patients seeking non-invasive, long-term pain relief and improved mobility.
Clinical Pilates
Clinical Pilates strengthens core muscles, improves posture, and aids rehabilitation for back pain, arthritis, and post-pregnancy recovery. Sessions include postural assessments and bespoke exercise programmes, blending mat-based techniques with progressive training to enhance flexibility and prevent re-injury.
Shockwave Therapy
Radial Shockwave Therapy accelerates healing for chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis and tennis elbow by stimulating blood circulation and stem cell activity. Treatments use the Swiss DolorClast method, requiring 35 weekly sessions for optimal results, with immediate pain relief often experienced post-treatment.
Sports Massage
Sports massage targets muscle tension, spasms, and sports injuries through deep-tissue techniques and trigger point therapy. Combined with chiropractic care, it enhances recovery, reduces inflammation, and improves range of motion for athletes and active individuals.
Room Hire
Fully equipped treatment rooms available for healthcare professionals, featuring air conditioning, sinks, and flexible booking options. Rates include utilities, cleaning, and clinical waste disposal, with 24/7 access available upon agreement and discounted block bookings.

Gareth, the Sports Massage Therapist at the clinic is knowledgeable and professional. He has great way of making those new to massage very comfortable and understands and evaluates every case to a high standard. The clinic itself is full of polite and friendly individuals who make it one of the best places to receive alternative treatments.
