Chiropractic Treatment

Aidan Barry DC MSc completed his 5 year MSc course at the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in Bournemouth. After a period spent practicing in Devon Aidan moved to the Cotswolds in 2007 to set up his own practice with Alison.

Chiropractic treatment involves the manipulation of the spine, which has 26 moveable bones, to release pressure on the nerves that surround the spinal column. Nerve pressure on this area due to injury or bad posture can cause severe pain, and taking a chiropractic route means you can avoid drugs or invasive surgical procedures.

It is a common misconception that chiropractic treatment can only be used to treat back pain. It can also be used to treat problems such as:

• Headaches
• Slipped discs
• Sciatica
• Neuralgia
• Neck, shoulder and arm pain
• Sports injuries

Aromatherapy and Massage

Alison practices several different types of massage including:

• Aromatherapy massage
• Swedish massage
• Sports massage
• Indulgent massage

Alison also has a 'thumper' to relieve particularly bad muscle tension!

They are also able to supply ice packs, deep heat gels, TENS machines, sports tape and hip seats for carrying babies and small children and are fully trained to give advice on the correct use of all of these products.
