a great difference was made to my quality of life all thanks to Dr Christian and his amazing team. I first attended with severe back pain and having to walk with a crutch to steady myself. After a fall in the shower I cracked 2 vertebrae in the lower spine and also discovered that I have osteoporosis. After attending just 3 sessions I already have noticed a vast improvement in as that I do not need the crutch now and am able to walk faster and better even up and down stairs. Leigh- Ann was the first to greet me with some gentle tests and explaining what she was doing and looking for, she really put me at ease. She carried out various x-rays and measurements of my whole spine. This was followed by Dr Christian's examination and consultation who again explains everything in understandable terms not to much medical jargon so that everything made sense. this was followed by adjustment sessions by Dr Christian which is more gentle than it sounds and 2 massage sessions by the 2 Max's who are expert at what they do. My back pain has subsided quite a bit and I feel better in myself. i will continue to attend future sessions gladly.

After 15 years of chronic back pain that would flare up every year or so, I ended up in a position where my right leg was largely numb and i was struggling to walk. That's when I contacted Bodywell. Now, here I am a year later and everything is transformed. I'm in the best shape of my life, I can move properly and gradually, the bends in my spine are being adjusted. The diagnosis of the issues was extremely professional, the facilities and treatment are superb. There is also no better way to start a day than with a deep tissue massage! Absolutely superb! Cannot rate them highly enough.

I am so pleased I purchased a Groupon offer for a checkup at Bodywell. It has been the making of me. I was bending over and leaning sideways in a lot of pain with a long standing back and neck problems. The initial consultation was excellent covering my somewhat complicated medical history, having a full examination complete with xray and feet check, in fact a top to toe overhaul!
Since starting my treatment with adjustments and massage I am walking so much better and more upright a lot of the pain has been alleviated I don't expect miracles at nearly 80! However my life is now happy busy and much more comfortable thanks to the expertise of Dr Christian and his wife Dr Tracey. I bless the day I walked into their practice.
Yes it is a private practice and there are costs involved but it is up to the individual to accept as much of the recommendations offered, there is no coercion only suggestions.
Having my treatment with fully qualified practitioners in a relaxed environment with pleasant staff and being looked at as a whole person not just a number with a few aches and pains has made such a difference to me. it certainly lives up to its name Bodywell and I would recommend a this clinic to anyone after all if you don't try something you will never know what you are missing.

I had booked BodyWell before Covid but cancelled due to it. After two years I eventually rebooked my appointment. I was feeling very very low and in a lot of pain, having been told by the NHS that there was no hope for my back. I was also told by the NHS the only thing they suggest is to up my morphine patches. I have been having treatment at BodyWell for around 3 months now, being able to complete around 4000/5000 steps a day from an average of around 500 a day prior to these appointments. I have also been able to completely stop using the morphine patches along with other painkillers too. I am feeling a lot better in myself even with no help from painkillers. I can now manage the pain myself and hope to continue improving.

Many Thanks to all the staff at BodyWell

I started going to BodyWell about six weeks ago. Before going, I did some online research and read the reviews here. There are some really positive ones and then a couple that were very negative and raised some issues of the past. So I kept an open mind. I can honestly say it has been a fantastic experience, very friendly environment, highly professional, very personal service in that you feel like your health really matters to them, it has made a big difference to my life already. I would wholeheartedly recommend BodyWell to anyone who is seriously about getting their health on track, want to make lifestyle changes and feel warmly supported in the process. They take a very holistic approach. Even my teenage daughter loves coming to BodyWell and something like this would never have been her bag before she started coming. It has inspired her in a way that has totally amazed me!

Having competed in swimming on a National and International level for many years, I always valued keeping myself in top shape to compete. BUT one thing that I never had checked in all my years of competing, was my spine and nervous system as this always seems to be overlooked. That is when I discovered BodyWell and it has opened my eyes to a different level of health and optimal performance. I had x-rays, digital nerve scans and 3D foot scans, all of which revealed some fundamental issues that explained alot to me. I have had correction adjustments for a few months now and have noticed such a positive difference. It really has been remarkable. I feel more balanced, lighter and more freedom in my movements. All these things happened in just a few weeks and it got me thinking.... how much faster could I have swum if someone made sure my spine and nervous system were functioning at 100%...?

I may not be competing anymore, but I do still want to keep myself in the best possible shape and enjoy the best of health. Hence why I go routinely to my Chiropractor to get adjusted (so to speak) and keep my body well.

So I ask, from one patient to another... when was the last time someone checked your spine and nervous system properly? Check it out, I am glad I did!

Not a nice experience at body well , Blean. First i was kept waiting for over half an hour on a booked appointment slot . I found Dr Christians attitude to be that of extreme arrogance . He humiliated me for being a `big Woman` virtually calling me Fat . Insisted i needed 4 x-rays and 2 scans totaling £300. I never did get an explanation as to why he needed to x ray my mouth !! He was very impatient with me whist doing the xrays , bearing in mind i could hardly stand straight let alone walk. He then preceded to talk abruptly to me, telling me i needed to stand absolutely still . He weighed me on 2 scales at the same time , one foot on each then told me i was carrying more weight on one side of my body , that's hardly a surprise given i was in extreme pain and my balance very unsteady. Clearly pointless and just a money making exercise !!! .. When i returned for my results , he was very friendly at first. Soon it became clear to him that i wasnt going to be signing up for treatment there and then and that i wanted to talk things through with my sister ( also a client of his ) . His attitude soon changed. He never even said goodbye to me ! I called a week or so later and was promised by the receptionist that she would get my file out and i would get call back from Dr Christian that same afternoon . This never happened . No follow up has ever been made by Dr Christian. This only concludes my theory that this is clearly only a money making operation to him ... Very much like the old timeshare schemes !

If a restaurant is busy and you see staff eating at the restaurant they work in it is probably a good sign that the food is superb!

Right from the start, I want to let you know that I am one of the Massage Therapists at BodyWell and have been working alongside the chiropractors and doctors for over 12 years. I also have regular visits to BodyWell to take care of my health.

What I see occur every week is nothing from amazing. When people come to see us for back problems, whiplash, panic attacks, anxiety, fatigue, insomnia and many other degenerative conditions, once the cause is identified and corrected, it is inspiring to see them return to their best of health. When someone is sick and suffering and has turned away from their GP with more pills, they are often lost and not knowing what to do. But there is an answer and it is often not identified because the doctor has not identified the actual root cause of their problem.

I myself have had very positive results. Just like the restaurant, I use the BodyWell Group as my favourite place to go and take care of my overall health. Why? They focus on my athletic performance for football I no longer suffer with the extreme back pain that I thought was part of my life. Whenever I stood up for long periods of time, I'd be in agony and if I was out at a gig seeing my favourite bands, I was always left with excruciating back pain. Now, about a year down the line, I am completely back pain free...and I love it!

You can sit here and read all the reviews, but you can only truly have your own experience of what BodyWell has to offer. So come check us out, I look forward to meeting you!
