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.

Excellent treatment with Aaron, very thorough, and very informative regarding what the various movements and treatment were for, and considerate throughout, highly recommended.

I had one appointment with Jamie after suffering tremendous pain and he totally relieved the pain, allowing me to carry on with my life as normally as possible with my ongoing back weakness. I would highly recommend him to anyone and would totally trust him to help me again in the future.

Tom has been great right from the start. From listening to me and everything I had to tell him in our first meeting. Taking me and my previous (less good) experience with chiropractors into account and seriously considering why I was there. He helped me, that first time and has done for the number of sessions I've had since. He answers all my nerdy, analytical questions and adapts to me as I need him to. He's also not a snake oil salesman, talking himself out of the possibility of a job within the first month if I found I no longer needed him. None of this "oh, look, another problem I'll need to see you for" malarkey. Tom has been honest and so helpful every time. The reception staff at Skelian are lovely, the atmosphere is nice, and whilst not cheap I have never felt swindled. Only understood, because back pain is a universal suffering we can all sympathise with. Couldn't recommend them and Tom more. And I'll soon be in maintenance, somewhere I never thought I'd get to when all this started in February.

Treatment here took all of my back pain in some appointments. Tom was excellent professional and now I feel safe that whenever I have the same problem I have someone to rely on .

I have been seeing Jamie for the last couple of months, and absolutely can’t recommend him enough. I love his holistic approach and looking at the bigger picture to try and piece together the reasons why my neck and hips are so painful. I always feel anxious when having to go to someone different when it comes to my health, but Jamie is so kind, friendly and understanding of people and how they are feeling. We have had some great results so far with my treatment and feel we are making some headway with all my aches and pains. If you are feeling nervous and not sure what to expect, Jamie is the guy for you.

I recently had a sports massage with Brad, due to extended periods of computer use, I suffer with neck and shoulder tension. Brad was able to work out all the knots in my back and shoulders. I have definitively felt the benefits ever since.

About X-Rays

All of our of Chiropractors at Skelian have access to a quick X-ray referral service on a private basis for our patients.

An X-ray is a useful diagnostic tool that allows us to make a swift diagnosis in situations where further investigation is required. Your Chiropractor will discuss with you whether this is necessary, and an X-ray referral will be requested if clinically required.

All X-rays take place at Cobalt Health, a specialised medical charity based in Cheltenham. The images are provided instantly on a disk or via an online portal, which we can then view at our Clinic ahead of your follow up visit and discuss the best course of treatment with you at your next appointment.

Conditions we refer to X-ray

  • Bone fractures
  • Broken bones
  • Spinal fractures
  • Spinal degeneration
  • Scoliosis

What we offer

Skelian has a close partnership with Cobalt Health, who provide both X-ray and MRI diagnostic testing. Our chiropractors are experts in Musculo-Skeletal conditions and are trained to take and read X-rays. 

While we no longer have any X-ray facilities on site, we refer to Cobalt Health, the specialist imaging centre in Cheltenham. This means our patients are seen by experts with high-grade specialist equipment. 

At the follow up appointment with one of our chiropractors, we will discuss in detail your X-ray report and images and explain how the imaging informs your treatment or rehabilitation. At Skelian we believe that patients should be part of the treatment decision process. 

What to expect

An initial consultation with a chiropractor to assess the clinical need for an X-ray is the first step. If the chiropractor thinks you need an X-ray to assist with the diagnosis or decision of your treatment options, the chiropractor will send a referral to Cobalt (if clinically justified). Cobalt will then contact you to arrange an appointment and talk you through the process. Following your X-ray, the images and report will be sent to you on a disk or via an online portal which you can discuss with your chiropractor at your follow up appointment.
