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.

Hyaluronic Acid Injection

About Hyaluronic Acid Injections 

Hyaluronic acid has been used in medicine for over 10 years to help relieve the pain and reduce the progression of osteoarthritis. 

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance within all joints; it has been shown to reduce in quality and quantity in arthritic joints.

Hyaluronic acid injections are the equivalent of performing an “oil change during a car service” for your joints. The result is increased lubrication, protection of cartilage and reduced pain from osteoarthritis.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance so there is no limit to the amount of injections you can have – unlike steroid injections.

Hyaluronic acid Injections can help with

  • Knee Osteoarthritis
  • Hip Osteoarthritis
  • Big Toe Osteoarthritis
  • Thumb Osteoarthtitis
  • Shoulder Pain

Please note we do not offer spinal injections. We have an excellent team of chiropractors that can help assist with any back or spinal problems.

What we offer

At Skelian we offer Hyaluronic acid injections as part of our specialist physiotherapist services.

Jonathan Wride our specialist physiotherapist, carries out the hyaluronic acid injections. He has extensive knowledge and experience so you are in safe hands.

We use Ultrasound guided injections because research has shown significantly better outcomes. Using guided rather than unguided ensures  you can target the specific injury.

All our hyaluronic acid injections follow a one-injection protocol using the premium brand ‘Ostenil Plus’. More information on this product can be found at ostenil.trbchemedica.co.uk. Typically there is a 70% response rate to hyaluronic acid injections with most people experiencing 6-12 months of pain relief.

What to expect

Hyaluronic acid injection is a treatment that is typically used when hands on treatment or exercise therapies have not helped your condition yet. 

Usually diagnostic imaging ultrasound scans, x-rays or MRIs are used to confirm a diagnosis of arthritis. This is done before your Hyaluronic acid injection appointment. 

During your first visit to ensure the right treatment for you, Jonathan will talk through your detailed medical history and assess your problem. Once Jonathan is happy that you are in the right place, he will talk you through how the procedure works before performing it.

Included in Hyaluronic acid injection session

  • Explanation of your diagnosis/condition
  • Explanation of how the treatment works and what to expect
  • Hyaluronic acid injection delivered under ultrasound guidance for total accuracy
