Why Choose Revive Chiropractic?
Our chiropractors care passionately about the health and well being of our patients. That is why appointments are for 40 minutes. You won’t be made to feel rushed and there is always time to ask questions.
We place you, the patient, at the centre your own care. Each patient experiences different day to day stresses and for this reason you will receive a bespoke treatment plan. As the patient, you are involved in every aspect of your treatment plan and in the clinical decision making process. We want you get you moving better and in less pain as quickly as possible.
It is from these principles that Revive Chiropractic was born over nine years ago and each year we continue to grow and expand. We have two chiropractors and you can read about them below.

What ages is Chiropractic Suitable for?
It is suitable for all ages, from newborn babies through to the more senior citizens! Chiropractors use a variety of different techniques and will select a technique that is most suited to you.
Do Chiropractors only treat backs?
No. Chiropractors are trained to diagnose and treat injuries involving any part of the body, not just backs!
How long are the appointments?
The initial consultation will take approximately one hour and usually includes the first treatment. Subsequent treatments last around 20 minutes, providing plenty of time for you to ask questions and for the chiropractor to discuss the progress being made.
Is treatment painful? Does it hurt?
As with any form of manual therapy, even massage, you may experience some soreness after treatment. However this is usually mild and should not last for more than 24 hours.
Do chiropractors “crack” bones?
You may a noise similar to a “pop” during your treatment. This is not the sound of bones cracking but the sound of fluid moving in the joints and is not dangerous in any way.
How much training have Chiropractors had?
All chiropractors have undergone a minimum of four years full-time study to degree level and are registered with the General Chiropractic Council (the governing body similar to General Medical Council for doctors).
Do I need a referral from my doctor?
No. Chiropractic is a primary healthcare profession, meaning you do not require a referral. A Chiropractor is trained to diagnose your problem and will refer you to another health-care practitioner if necessary.
Is Chiropractic covered by private medical insurance?
Yes. Almost all of the major medical insurers cover the cost of Chiropractic treatment. You will be asked to pay us directly for your treatment and we can provide an electronic receipt so that you can claim the money back from your insurer.
WE NO LONGER ACCEPT BUPA or AXA/PPP patients. Please check your individual circumstances with your insurer.
