Chiropractic is a primary healthcare profession focused on the diagnosis and treatment of health issues regarding the joints, muscles and nerves within the body. Chiropractic treatment primarily deals with the spine and how mechanical spine problems can affect the nervous system, as well as dealing with all other joints and muscles within the body. Ultimately chiropractors help to restore and maintain optimum functioning of the mechanics of the body.

Although chiropractors primarily use a technique called "adjustments" there are a variety of other tools used to decrease pain, inflammation and spinal dysfunction such as mobilisations, traction, acupuncture, activator technique, pelvic blocks, taping, soft tissue work (massage, stretching techniques), and more.

Alongside hands on treatment chiropractors provide tailored advice regarding and rehabilitation specific to your needs and to promote general wellbeing.

All our chiropractors are registered with the General Chiropractic Council and hold relevant insurance. You do not need a referral from your GP to see a chiropractor.

Sports massage is a targeted massage, involving the manipulation of soft tissue, focusing on a particular area of the body that is in need of treatment. Sports massage uses techniques to provide a deep and rehabilitating process, manipulating the soft tissue to prevent injury.

If you are suffering from an ongoing condition such as tight calves, or tense shoulders or if you have recently sustained an injury such as a sprain, then sports massage can help. Sports massages are also sometimes helpful for people that suffer from migraines and tension headaches.

Although “sports massage” gets its name because it targets injuries that are specific to sports, the treatment is not just beneficial for sportspeople. Sports massage can help if you are suffering from pain, or an injury, that is limited to a single part of the body.

“I enjoy helping people reach optimum health and getting them back to day-to-day activities that they were previously unable to do. Each person is an individual and needs to be treated that way. It is that challenge within this profession that makes it so worthwhile”

Jon receives ongoing treatment himself to ensure he is in peak condition and can deliver the best care to his patients. His personal interests include a variety of sports, particularly running, kayaking, swimming and rugby, as well as spending time with family and friends.
