Jamie has been amazing. I was in such constant pain and couldn't do my regular exercise. Each appointment has brought marked improvement - and the emphasis is on fewer treatments not dependency. Highly recommend!

I have just had a 2 stage shoulder revision operation carried out on 5th February & as my arm has been in a sling since April last year my elbow has got very stiff so after seeing my consultant the other week & the physio at the hospital I decided to come to get extra help in between physio appointments. I have seen Will twice now & I can already feel an improvement with the movement & pain, he takes time to listen to any concerns you have & puts you at ease by explaining everything he is going to do. All the receptionists are very nice & always very cheerful even if they are having a bad day. I recommend this is the clinic to choose if you want excellent treatment at a reasonable price with free car parking on site & I have been to a few other clinics in the past but not a welcoming as this one.

After suffering from recent back pain, I have had several massages from Dani. These have helped hugely to relieve the pain and loosen up the muscles to move freely again. Dani takes time to understand the problem history and really put you at ease. As someone who has had back pain on and off over the years and had countless massages treatments, I can confidently say that Dani is very skilled at what she does and has a natural gift for massage.

Really great first ever experience for me at a Chiropractor. Amanda on reception was brilliant with me, whilst waiting for my appointment she chatted and calmly eased my nerves as a first timer. Likewise for Jamie, he made things so easy, explained everything clearly and really made sure I understood the whole process. Genuinely impressed on how they handled the whole process, definitely recommend!

Both me and my husband have received fantastic chiropractic care from Victoria and she is now our 'go-to' chiropractor. Recently, I hobbled in with painful lower back sprain and sciatica, which Victoria fixed in just two sessions. Her attention to detail and care is brilliant, and she has a lovely manner which puts you at ease. I've had chiropractic care before but was really impressed by the service here. Highly recommend Victoria and the team at Skellian.

I went to see Jamie with neck problems which were causing dizziness. After just 3 visits I am feeling much better, my neck feels much more relaxed. Not only has my neck improved but Jamie also found that some of the dizziness may be coming from an ear problem. At the last visit he carried out some manipulation and last night I only had a very short episode of dizziness as I turned over in bed. It is very reassuring to know that I can see Jamie when needed and I will get relief.

Fantastic treatment, can't recommend them enough. Tom helped with my various aches and joint pain from running and also gave me so much advice for my upcoming half marathon. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and very accommodating- helping to sort last minute appointments and change/alter when needed. I have seen a few different chiropractors at the clinic and they have all been very knowledgeable and explained everything so clearly. Tom particularly has been great and got me back out running pain-free.

Why posture matters

Why Posture Matters 

The Power of Posture: How Good Alignment Supports Your Wellbeing

When was the last time you thought about your posture? In today’s digital age, many of us spend hours hunched over screens, unknowingly placing stress on our spines and muscles. At Skelian Chiropractic Clinic in Cheltenham, we see firsthand how poor posture can lead to long-term discomfort and health concerns. But here’s the good news—small changes in your posture can make a big difference to your overall well-being.

Why Your Posture Matters

Posture is more than just standing tall—it’s the foundation of your body’s alignment. Proper posture ensures that your bones, muscles, and joints function optimally, reducing strain and preventing pain. Studies have shown that maintaining good posture can:

  • Reduce back, neck, and shoulder pain by evenly distributing weight across your body.

  • Improve breathing and circulation, allowing your lungs to fully expand.

  • Enhance mood and energy levels by reducing fatigue and stress.

  • Support better focus and productivity, especially for those working at desks for long hours.

Signs of Poor Posture

Not sure if your posture needs improvement? Here are some common indicators:

  • Rounded shoulders or a forward head position.

  • Persistent back or neck discomfort.

  • Feeling fatigued, even after minimal physical activity.

  • A noticeable arch in your lower back when standing.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

At Skelian Chiropractic Clinic, we specialise in correcting posture-related issues through gentle, effective treatments. Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper spinal alignment, reducing tension and discomfort. We also offer tailored advice on posture-friendly habits, ergonomic setups, and simple exercises to strengthen postural muscles.

Simple Tips to Improve Your Posture

Making small adjustments to your daily routine can significantly improve posture. Here are a few tips:

  • Be mindful of your sitting position – Keep both feet flat on the floor and your back straight.

  • Take regular breaks – Stand up, stretch, and move around every 30–60 minutes.

  • Strengthen your core – Exercises like planks and bridges support spinal stability.

  • Adjust your workspace – Ensure your screen is at eye level and your chair provides adequate back support.
