Report
I had been struggling with a hamstring problem for a couple of months and after seeing other physios nothing was working. When I seen Luke he was able to let me know what I had been doing wrong! He was able to point me in the right direction and I am now on the road to recovery. He was so thorough and attentive with so much knowledge. I couldnt recommend enough.

Fantastic service provided by Luke. Exceptionally knowledgeable, which in turn gave me lots of confidence going into my rehab plan. Avoided surgery and will be back playing in the new year all thanks to an extremely well thought out and methodical rehabilitation program.

I highly recommend North Down Chiropractic.
Luke is an encyclopaedia of knowledge about the anatomy and understanding your body and looking after it. I have only been attending for a few weeks but already he has equipped me with the tools to progress with recovery independently witch is always a great instead of telling me I have to keep coming back to the clinic for treatment. Anyone who is looking for a long-term solution to a problems and not just a quick fix should go to the clinic and especially luke!

Ive only had two sessions with Luke so far, but Ive just come home after an appointment and started crying because Im not in pain and it feels so strange and amazing. After 10 years of lower back pain, with the last 6 months - 1 year being constant pain, my doctors not investigating beyond x-rays, I cant describe just how incredible it is to walk without it hurting! After feeling so hopeless for so long, I now have hope of being able to get on with my life and be a better parent to my little girl. Thank you so much. If youre thinking about booking in then dont hesitate, you
