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.

Diagnostic Ultrasound

Ultrasound imaging (the same as used in pregnancy scans), is a great way to assess the condition of muscles, tendons and joints. 

Diagnostic Ultrasound in Cheltenham

Ultrasound imaging (the same as used in pregnancy scans), is a brilliant way to assess the condition of muscles, tendons and joints. The advantage of ultrasound is that it is very safe (no radiation) quick and accurate at diagnosing many injuries. Patients will be able to see their injuries in real time during the assessments.

Please note that we only use diagnostic ultrasound for musculoskeletal injuries. We do not assess hernias or lumps and bumps. Due to the depth of the spine ultrasound is not used to look at spinal injuries.

Areas of the body ultrasound is useful for diagnosing:

  • Shoulder Injuries
  • Elbow Injuries
  • Wrist & Hand Pain
  • Hip Problems
  • Knee Pain
  • Ankle & Foot Injuries
  • Ligament Tears
  • Tendonitis or Inflammation of a Tendon
  • Muscle Tears

What we offer

At Skelian we offer private ultrasound scans to assess our patients for injury. This is a fantastic service if you are looking for a fast and accurate diagnosis for what could be causing your joint pain. Our scans are performed by an experienced specialist physiotherapist Jonathan Wride.

During the ultrasound scan, you will also experience some form of physical exam to add to your findings from the scan to help make sure your diagnosis is as accurate as possible

The Benefits of Ultrasound

  • Fast referral
  • Be seen quickly
  • Accurate diagnosis
  • See your injury or problem is real time during the scan

  • In some cases, you can move the area of the body whilst being scanned to assess the whole area for what is causing the pain or problem
  • Affordable price

What to expect

You will be greeted by our specialist physio in the waiting area and will be welcomed into the treatment room. From there Jonathan our specialist physio will ask you some questions about your health and your condition. After speaking to you about your problem he will then perform a focused physical exam , followed by the diagnostic ultrasound scan. 

During the scan Jonathan will be able to point out to you where the problem is, so you can see the issue in real time as you are being scanned.

Included in diagnostic ultrasound scan: 

  • Explanation of your diagnosis/condition
  • Explanation of what are the treatment options
  • Explanation of what are the next steps following your diagnosis
