Latest update regarding Covid-19

Due to the increasing severity of Covid-19 we are taking the following measures to protect our patients and staff.

From Monday we will be operating on reduced hours, and reducing the number of patients and chiropractors to limit the amount of footfall in the clinic.

We have taken the difficult decision to stop treating anyone who falls into the category of high risk, or anyone who lives in the same household as someone who is high risk (Please see the below bullet points) We have also decided to stop treating maintenance patients.

We understand there is going to disappointment and frustration with this decision, however we are doing this to keep everyone as safe as possible and doing our best in the current situation. We ask all our patients to bear with us in this difficult time, our reception team have a huge amount of work on their hands to reorganise this for us.

We will be reviewing this on a daily basis, and will keep you as informed as and when things change.
We ask that you please do not attend the clinic if:

• You have traveled to or from or been in contact with people who have traveled to one of the high risk areas noted on the government website. (The areas include but are not limited to China, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Iran, Japan, Korea, Italy, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam)
