I have been seeing Jamie for the last couple of months, and absolutely can’t recommend him enough. I love his holistic approach and looking at the bigger picture to try and piece together the reasons why my neck and hips are so painful. I always feel anxious when having to go to someone different when it comes to my health, but Jamie is so kind, friendly and understanding of people and how they are feeling. We have had some great results so far with my treatment and feel we are making some headway with all my aches and pains. If you are feeling nervous and not sure what to expect, Jamie is the guy for you.

I recently had a sports massage with Brad, due to extended periods of computer use, I suffer with neck and shoulder tension. Brad was able to work out all the knots in my back and shoulders. I have definitively felt the benefits ever since.

Brad gave me physio after I damaged my ankle ligaments playing rugby. Excellent in helping relieve the swelling initially then worked with me to help with recovery . Brad helped with taping up once I got back playing as well and my return was very swift

Brad has been working on my back and shoulders mostly over the last year and has given me exercises to do in my own time to strengthen and stretch the effected areas. I have recently had knee surgery so will be looking to him for some more physio work to help me achieve my goals in recovery! Brad offers a Fabulous service, good knowledge and a friendly face! Big thumbs up!!!

I really look forward to my adjustments with Jamie. I always walk out feeling looser and grounded. I’m quite inquisitive and he answers my questions fully and has a great sense of humour. I’m so grateful he’s helped me feel like me again. I highly recommend going to see him!! 🙏🏻

My experience with Skelian has been overwhelming positive. I have had lower back pain on and off for a good few years but Jamie has been able to assist with making things more comfortable for me since beginning treatment. I can’t thank Jamie enough for giving me the ability to train again without fear of enduring discomfort afterwards. Simply amazing service!!

Injury Rehabilitation

At Skelian, all of our practitioners from our Chiropractors, Sports Therapists to our Specialist Physiotherapist are trained in rehabilitation.

About Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation is all about strengthening the core muscles, improving balance and mobility, and reducing the likelihood of recurrent symptoms. 

Conditions we treat 

  • Postural issues
  • Sports injury
  • Recovery from traumatic injury
  • Repetitive strain injury
  • Sciatica
  • Muscle spasm and cramp

  • Headaches caused by neck issues
  • Migraine prevention

What we offer

At Skelian, all of our practitioners from our Chiropractors, Sports Therapists to our Specialist Physiotherapist are trained in rehabilitation. Many of us have personal experience with rehab for sports injuries. 

All our bodies are different, and we all have different problems, different weaknesses, and different lifestyles. As a result, rehabilitation needs to be tailored to each individual, and our practitioners are very good at this.

Some patients will receive a set of simple exercises to do at home, whereas others will need more careful supervision. For example in recovering from a disc injury. Usually, a progression through different exercises and techniques is required over a period of weeks, or sometimes months. Unlike stretching exercises, where you often feel the benefit immediately, strengthening takes longer to achieve results. However, it is worth it, because there is strong evidence that rehabilitation is an effective tool in managing chronic back pain and preventing relapses.

What to expect

Your practitioner will carry out a thorough assessment of your injury or problem and following treatment, may prescribe a set of exercises to strengthen key muscles in order to aid the recovery of your injury. Our practitioners use a holistic approach. They will also ask you questions about your nutrition, lifestyle and work demands to create a rehabilitation programme that is best suited to your needs. Some injuries need careful supervision from the practitioner and in other cases, patients are able to perform their rehab exercises at home and report progress back to their practitioner. Our practitioners are all on hand to answer any queries you may have throughout your programme and adapt it if required.

  • One-to-one tailored rehabilitation
  • Strengthening and mobility exercises
  • Regular contact with practitioner to track progress
