Pain isn’t always caused by something you can see..
Chiropractic:
What is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care is a gentle, hands-on approach to helping your body feel and function better. It uses a range of techniques like manipulation of the joints, soft tissue work, and guided home exercises to ease pain and improve how your body moves. Our goal is to help you understand what’s going on with your body and what can be done to get you back to feeling your best — because life’s too short to be held back by pain.
Who Are Chiropractors?
Chiropractors are highly trained healthcare professionals, qualified to a doctoral level in diagnosing and treating problems with your muscles, joints, and ligaments. Simply put, if you’ve got aches or pains involving your back, neck, shoulders, or other areas, we are here to help. Often, these types of issues aren't likely to show up on scans or X-rays, which can make them tricky to identify without a proper assessment.
Why Choose Chiropractic?
While painkillers can help take the edge off, they won’t get to the root of the problem. With all NHS services currently stretched, it can be frustrating to wait weeks just to speak to a GP. That’s where we come in—offering expert care and hands-on treatment to help get you back to living life comfortably and confidently.
So, Where is the Pain Coming From?
The human body has over 360 joints, and any one of them can become irritated—especially if it’s being put under too much stress. Whether it’s from sitting in poor posture, lifting something awkwardly, or moving in a way your body wasn’t ready for, these small irritations can build up causing a massive painful reaction. Compensation patterns then start to come in which can lead to stress on other parts of the body. So the cycle continues until it severely impacts your life and you are living every day in pain.
How do Chiropractors help?
We start by listening carefully to your story, then use physical exams and specific tests to identify which muscle or joint is causing the issue. Whether it’s a simple strain or something more complex—like a ‘slipped disc’ or 'trapped nerve', we are able to identify the root cause of the problem. Treatment is then tailored to your unique situation and techniques are adapted accordingly so every person feels comfortable with the treatment they receive. You will also receive a clear explanation as to what is going on with the discussion about a treatment plan or further investigation if required. However you are suffering, we are here to support you in achieving your goals!

Paediatric Chiropractic
The journey through the birth canal—whether natural or assisted—can sometimes create tension in your baby’s body. This may affect how comfortable they are when lying down, how easily they can turn their head, or how well they feed.
Some signs your baby might be feeling some post-birth tension include:
Struggling to turn their head both ways (favouring one side)
Discomfort when lying flat, especially in the cot or car seat
Arching or pushing their head and back
Being generally unsettled or crying more than usual
Signs of reflux or wind after feeding
Chiropractic care for babies is extremely gentle and tailored to suit their small, developing bodies. We use light, safe techniques to help release tension and improve comfort.
Pregnancy Chiropractic
Pregnancy is an exciting and special time, but it also brings a lot of changes to your body—some of which can be a bit uncomfortable. As your baby grows, your posture starts to shift, your body softens in preparation for birth, and it’s very common to experience aches, pains, and general discomfort, especially in your lower back, hips, and pelvis.
One of the hormones released early in pregnancy is called relaxin, and its job is to help loosen your ligaments to get your body ready for labour. While this is completely natural, it can also make your joints a bit less stable—particularly around your pelvis.
These changes can lead to common pregnancy-related issues like:
Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP)
Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD)
Lower back pain
Hip pain or tightness
Sciatica (pain down the back of the leg)
Discomfort of difficulty moving
If you’re finding it harder to do everyday things like getting out of the car, rolling over in bed, or even walking without pain? You are not alone and we are here to help you!
Chiropractic treatment safely releases tension to help restore pain-free movement and can help prepare your body for labour and birth. It is time for you to enjoy the remainder of your pregnancy and spend a little time investing in yourself.
We are here for you!
Breastfeeding Challenges & How Chiropractic Can Help
Breastfeeding is a beautiful and natural way to bond with your baby—but that doesn’t mean it always comes easily. Many new mums experience challenges in the early days, with painful latching, difficulty breastfeeding, reflux and excessive crying.
Common Breastfeeding Struggles
If your baby is having trouble latching properly, they might not be forming a good seal with their tongue and the roof of their mouth. This can cause them to swallow air during feeds, leading to persistent reflux, painful trapped wind, and excessive crying (often referred to as colic).
You might also notice:
Sore, cracked, or grazed nipples
Nipples that look “lipstick-shaped” after feeding
Concerns about milk supply
Frequent feeding or fussiness at the breast
Signs of reflux or discomfort after feeds
These symptoms can sometimes be linked to issues like tongue tie, tightness in the jaw, or tension in the neck and shoulders—all of which can affect how well your baby feeds.
How Chiropractic Can Support You and Your Baby?
Chiropractic care for babies is extremely gentle, safe, and tailored to suit their age and current stage of development. We use soft direct press and release or sustained pressure techniques to assess and ease areas of tightness or tension.
Our care may help with:
Improving movement and comfort in the neck and spine
Gently easing tightness in the jaw (TMJ) to support better latching
Supporting babies with suspected or diagnosed tongue tie (we work alongside other healthcare professionals when needed)
Helping settle babies experiencing colic, reflux, or feeding-related discomfort
Many parents notice their baby becomes more relaxed, feeds more easily, and sleeps more soundly after just a few sessions.
