What we treat
Six areas we see most weeks, each examined before it is treated, each with a plan that has a visit count and an end. Below them, twelve common conditions, and a plain note on what chiropractic is not for.
01
The most common reason people come through the door: a low back that went while lifting, a stiff mid-back from the desk, or sciatica down one leg. Examined properly, treated with adjustment and soft tissue work, and given a plan with an end.
New patient visit £65 including the first treatment where appropriate; follow-ups £42.
02
Necks that will not turn, headaches that start at the base of the skull, the ache across the shoulders from a day at a screen. Assessed for the neck, the jaw and the upper back together, because they rarely act alone.
New patient visit £65; follow-ups £42.
03
Hips, knees, shoulders and backs that stop you training. Assessed for the joint that hurts and the one above or below it that caused it, treated hands-on, and loaded back to sport with a plan rather than rest.
New patient visit £65; follow-ups £42; sports massage £38 for 30 minutes or £62 for the hour with Helen.
04
Pelvic girdle pain, low back pain and rib ache during pregnancy, treated gently in side-lying on a table that adapts, and the back, pelvis and posture of the months after the birth. Elin leads this.
New patient visit £65; follow-ups £42.
05
Stiff arthritic backs and necks, hips and knees that have slowed down, and the balance and confidence to keep walking and gardening. Gentle techniques, a concession fee and a slower pace.
New patient visit £65; concession follow-ups £36 for over 65s.
06
Deep tissue and remedial massage with Helen, a sports massage therapist of twenty years, for tight hamstrings, stiff shoulders, marathon weeks and desk backs. Bookable on its own or between chiropractic visits.
30 minutes £38, 60 minutes £62.
Conditions
If yours is not here, ring reception and ask. Chiropractors are trained to assess the whole musculoskeletal system, and the answer is often "yes, that is something we see".
Not for us
Asthma, colic, ear infections, blood pressure, allergies and the general claim that adjusting the spine treats disease: there is no good evidence for any of it and we do not make those claims. We treat the musculoskeletal system. If you come in with something else, we will say so and point you to the right person.
An hour with a chiropractor: history, examination, a plain explanation and a plan with an end. £65, no GP referral needed, most insurers recognised. Online, or ring reception.
