  • I came to Emma with a condition called costochondritis this is a really painful inflammation in the chest that causes extreme pain. This condition made me seek emergency help on a few occasions because of its similarity to a heart attack. Came in an from the first session I started to feel a relief. 4th session in and I have not had any pain in my chest and I can now live as I did before the costochondritis. I now go to the gym as before and not needing to worry about if i can move my torso and chest. Best chiropractor in town!

    Finally, effective treatment! Jonathan has helped me with a long term issue in my upper back / shoulder blade which I've suffered for several years now. After my forth session today I'm finally getting the results I've been looking for. He has a great professional approach to the problem, and explains things concisely. The exercises are tailored and work at home. I have been sent to numerous physiotherapists and even an Orthopaedic surgeon on this issue by my health insurance provider. I only wished I found Bodymotion a few years earlier.

    I can't thank Lisa enough for all her help so far. I had given up hope with my hip issues and assumed that I'd never be able to get it back to it's previous full range of motion. I'd seen other healthcare professionals but it had never improved. After 3 sessions with Lisa over the course of two weeks, my hip is nearly back to normal - I'm truly amazed. She's so dedicated and caring and I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

    Prior to my first appointment with Jonathan, I had been dealing with chronic issues around my lower back that had led to further problems with my shoulder and hip. So far I’ve had 6 sessions spread across 4 months, and I’m genuinely feeling as strong and pain-free as I have in a long time. The results from the treatment and tailored exercise regime have far exceeded my expectations. Most definitely money and time well spent.

    I've been seeing Ben Glenister at Bodymotion chiropractic every 3-4 weeks for the last 6 months while I've been recovering from a herniated disk. He has been extremely helpful in his advice and physical treatment in managing this issue. At the first consultation, he assessed my issues and wrote a lengthy letter to give to my GP with his general diagnosis which helped my doctor to be more direct with the possible treatments and scans I'd need to have. I've been very happy with his services and would happily recommend.

    I've had a great experience with the clinic. They have a great website, which was easy to navigate and provided all the details I needed to make an informed choice regarding the treatment and practitioner I wanted. They are very customer oriented, always checking in to make sure they provide the best quality to their clients. Regarding the practitioner, I had Emma and she was truly great, walked me through everything in every session and was very helpful with everything I needed, while keeping updated on my progress. Overall, a great experience and I highly recommend them, especially if it's your first time going to a chiropractor.

  • When I saw these reviews I honestly thought they were too good to be true. After 9 months of back pain since injuring it working out last summer I felt pretty hopeless that it might never get better. In that time I got many differing diagnoses, Xrays, MRI, did 50+ hours of physio exercises, and nothing improved. After just 5 appointments in

    I had suffered from a very uncomfortable sports injury that affected my hip movements for over two or so years. After many visits to a physiotherapist to no avail, I decided to seek help from a chiropractor. I went and saw Ben Glenister at Body Motion who was absolutely helpful and after just a few sessions - plus practical exercises I was given to do in-between those sessions - I had never felt better in a very long time. I will most definitely recommend Ben, he is very professional and effective. He also takes the time to explain the technicalities of what is happening and why and also how the relevant approach and exercises will help correct the issue. Thanks again Ben really appreciate it!

    Wow. I have been to many physios and chiropractors, and none have really understood my issues and structure of my body as well as Emma has. Week after week she is always able to target my pain points, and she has significantly reduced a numbness I had in my hand for over a year which was a huge bother and worry for me. Truly one of the best in the industry

    I booked an appointment with Natasha at Bodymotion with a rotator cuff injury. My doctor and the NHS physiology had been helpful, but Natasha provided a more focused diagnosis of the injury and the three sessions I had with her, over the course of 6 weeks, made a very significant improvement, to the point now where my shoulder is almost back to normal. The massages eased the pain and discomfort considerably, especially in the first session, enabling me to sleep better while the injury healed. I'd recommend Natasha highly. Thanks!

    Emma is amazing, I was suffering from severe shoulder/ back pain from hairdressing. After 2 treatments, I felt much better and after 5 treatments, my body was free from pains. If you are thinking about trying chiropractic, I highly recommend Emma, I still go see her once every few weeks mainly for maintenance due to my job, but she is friendly and professional and thanks to her that I am not in pain anymore. She also accepts Bupa insurance.

    I came to see Jonathan for back ache I've had on-off for years. He spent most of the first session just listening to me talk about my back and really understanding what was going on, which meant he was able to diagnose the issue and how to fix it in the first session. I only ended up going twice and now feeling so much better! So so pleased and would definitely recommend anyone to go and see how he can help.

    I went to see Jonathan after dislocating my shoulder in a skiing accident. I was also suffering from sciatica due to a sub-standard home office set up. Not only is Jonathan a chiropractor, he is also a shoulder specialist so I was able to get treatment for both - what a bonus! After a few sessions, both my shoulder and back are feeling much better💪 highly recommended

    I’ve been living with lower back pain for ~5 years and I had nearly accepted it as something I will just have to live with. However, Jonathan Cairns took the time to understand the issue, explaining clearly what the problem was and then mapping out the route to become pain free. He tailored exercises for me that meet my fitness goals whilst also accelerating my recovery. He combines this with a hands-on technique that aids pain relief. The bounty of knowledge he has and the scientific literature he uses to guide his practice provides reassurance and is further evidence of his quality as a chiropractor. My time in pain has decreased significantly after just 3 months working with John, I only wish I had attended his clinic sooner!

In few weeks after the first treatment I've felt the benefits and step by step I've recovered completely from all pains. All the following regular treatment helped to keep a good health. Jack is absolutely and incredibly professional, not just with Chiropractic treatments but also explaining the nature of the spine issues and assisting with useful exercises. I'm very grateful

    Bodymotion and doctor Jonathan Cairns took great care of me when I sprained my muscles and was in too much pain to even move. I got the same day appointment; I was examined, received a medical massage and a set of exercises to do at home, designed to help me heal and strengthen my muscles. Pain was over quickly. I really appreciate Dr Cairns total approach, wide knowledge and professionalism. I'll be back if ever in trouble again.

    Emily White is fantastic. I have seen different chiropractors over my adult life and I have to say she is one of the best. I am visiting from the United States and I hurt my hip and was having difficulty even bending over. After the first visit my hip felt great after the second, I was back to my old self. I then fell while away and was so happy that I had Emily to get me back on track. Will continue to use her when needed while I am here. Wish I could take her back to the States with me. I highly recommend Emily White and Body Motion.

    I have received excellent treatment from Emma Daniels backed up by high quality rehabilitation sessions with Em Manaton. A strength has been that the two consult each other so they are aware of my progress with the other. This professional multi-disciplinary approach is complemented by a very efficient use of technology; both with the way appointments can be booked electronically and with the way I can access my exercises on my smart phone whilst I am in the gym. I am very comfortable recommending this excellent practice. Well done!

    Really easy and user friendly appointment booking which is very helpful trying to arrange around working hours. Emma has helped a recent flare up in chronic neck/back pain dramatically decrease in a very short time & has also provided advice for the management of the pain with exercise programs in order to make treatment work best for me. It was nice to see a chiropractor that didn’t suggest worst case scenario but rather explains what she sees and was able to minimise the problem areas.

    I have a long history of lower back issues. I searched for chiropractors near to my office and Bodymotion was highly recommended. I went to see Emma when I was struggling to stand up straight and walk around pain free. After taking extensive history and referring me for an MRI, it took relatively few sessions to have the issue under control. Cannot recommend Emma and Bodymotion enough.

    I have been seeing Emma Daniells on multiple occasions for my back issues and most recently for my tight jaw and neck. She has been extremely helpful: I was able to feel the difference in movement (less tense, better range, less pain) straight after the first session. Emma does a proper evaluation and sees what needs to be fixed in different parts of the body, not only the one you are complaining about. Highly recommend!

Jonathan managed to get to the bottom of all the issues and after 3 months I was as good as new! Highly recommended!

    I’ve seen 8 different chiropractors over the last 30 years on a steady bases. Emily is the best. I’m a runner and was experiencing issues, tightness, and pain with my hip, knees, ankles, and achilles. She quickly diagnosed the problems and worked out a solution and treatment. Many chiropractors are good with diagnosis but fall short of treatment, some are decent with treatments, but miss in the diagnosis. In addition to being a true professional, she makes the experience lively and fun. I would have no reservations introducing and recommending Emily White to others, which I have and she treaded my niece successfully.

    Knowledgeable , Friendly , Life Changing ! During my time at Bodymotion I've been under the care of Ben , and I cannot thank him enough for the freedom he has given to me through his therapy. He worked with me to get my life back into order and have the ability to move pain free once again. I came into the practice on crutches unable to walk without a limp and severe pain in my glutes/lower back area and sciatica - this chronic injury was debilitating all areas of my life for too long . After seeing Ben in a matter of 2 months my life has shifted completely. Every session I feel looser, relaxed and the lasting effects have been better strength and endurance.. life changing ! Thanks again to Dr.Glenister, the work he does and knowledgeable advice he gives is tailored to you to help reach your personal goals no matter how big or small.
