Our service
Chiropractic care for adults
Our goal is to guide you towards the greatest level of health your body can achieve - and help you maintain it. We begin by taking the time to listen, understand your concerns, and assess what is happening beneath the surface. By identifying the underlying causes of your symptoms, we create a personalised programme of care tailored to your needs. Everyone starts from a different place. Your level of fitness, stress, previous injuries, daily habits, and how much time you spend sitting can all influence how quickly your body responds and heals.
Your care plan is designed with these factors in mind. We take a whole-body approach to health, looking at how you move and breathe to support healing and long-term wellbeing.
Chiropractic care for Children
We aim to support your child from their very first days. By helping the spine and nervous system function well, we support healthy growth and development. As children grow, their bodies go through many physical stresses - from learning to crawl and walk to playing sports and the occasional bumps and falls. Chiropractic care can help support recovery and help prevent small issues from becoming longer-term problems.
We have further developed our expertises thorough extensive postgraduate training, enabling us to specialise in caring for babies and children. Many parents bring their babies in for a check within the first few days after birth for a gentle spinal and cranial assessment following the birthing process, whether the birth was natural or by caesarean section. The techniques used with babies and children are very different from those used with adults. They are extremely gentle and suitable for their developing bodies.
Chiropractic care for pregnancy
Wen are listed as a recommended practitioner by the "Pelvic Girdle Partnership" for the treatment and management of Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP).
PGP is a condition that causing pain in the pelvic joints. It affects up to one in five pregnant women and can continue after your baby is born. PGP may occur at any stage in pregnancy. It is characterised by pain in the pelvic girdle, either in the lower back area or at the front, in the pubic bone. It is frequently triggered by pregnancy due to the increase in specific hormones during pregnancy, increased load and the altered weight bearing patterns that Mums often adopt. All of these factors lead to mechanical changes in the joints around the pelvis and lower back.
Craniopathy
Cranial motion is a function of the pliability of the cranial vault influenced by the regular motion of respiration, muscular contractions, and circulatory flow, which together affect what is referred to as the primary respiratory mechanism (PRM). Although very subtle, these motions can be palpated by a trained practitioner and abnormalities within the flow of cerebral spinal fluid and cranial distortions can be diagnosed through visual observation, testing, palpation of the cranial sutural system and palpation of the cranial pulsations.
Craniopathic diagnostic procedures and manipulations are designed to evaluate and correct distortions of the cranium which are causing deformations of the cranial membrane system and distorting the flow of cerebral spinal fluid.
The majority of cranial work within chiropractic was developed within DeJarnette’s SOT organisation. The SOT organisations, SORSI (Sacro-Occipital Research Society International) in the USA, and SOT Europe (Sacro-Occipital Technique Europe) teach and examine the study of cranial work leading to a certification in Craniopathy, hence a Craniopath is a practitioner who has gained this certification.
