Many of our patients have come to chiropractic as a last resort when nothing else has helped them, and they are desperate to avoid taking pain medication for the rest of their lives. They are amazed at their body's recuperative powers once chiropractic has removed the interference to normal functioning.

We strive to maintain our position as highly trusted, experienced, and qualified chiropractors. As a part of this commitment, we aim to utilise the most advanced treatment techniques. We believe the best results are gained by a combined teamwork approach. That's why we encourage patients to work together with us as a team, so we get the best possible results in the shortest possible time.
I have worked at the clinic since 1994 and really value the rapport I have built up with so many of the patients. I find it extremely rewarding to witness the positive impact chiropractic has on the health and wellbeing of people treated by chiropractors here. Wendy left secondary school in 1980 and commenced work at the Britannic Assurance Head Office, Moseley, Birmingham.
This clinic was originally started around 1934 by Sydney Starkey and was subsequently taken over by his son George. Around 1985 George was looking to retire, so the opportunity arose for James Rousseau, DC to take over the responsibilities of running the clinic. In 1987 he renamed it the Birmingham Chiropractic Clinic, as this was the only one in the area at that time.
We use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches at Birmingham Chiropractic Clinic to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach we use is based on our clinical judgment and years of experience. This is a system of spinal evaluation combined with a handheld adjusting instrument that delivers a consistent, low-force thrust.
If deemed necessary, we at the Birmingham Chiropractic Clinic can arrange for you to have an MRI scan through Heath Lodge Clinic in Solihul, for as little as 190!

Everything that has been explained to me was easy to digest and understand. The expected outcomes from the treatment has happened according to plan. I have been really delighted with the service and the problem is resolving. I would highly recommend Liam. He listened and understood the issues and has a really friendly disposition. I feel safe when being treated and the staff are welcoming to the practice.

I cannot recommend highly enough the Practice, staff and of course Mr Rousseau aka my angel with healing hands.
I suffered an acute back injury on the 17th May, from picking a small plastic box and twisting so very slightly !!!! I was unable to mobilise, I’m a 44 year old Advanced Nurse Practitioner, who had to reluctantly call an ambulance out after 2 hours face down on the floor.
A week later I was still unable to mobilise despite anti-spasmodics, anti-inflammatories and multiple strong pain relief medications. Working diagnosis was a herniated disc. James had been highly recommended so I

Service totally Waste of time,
Basically your consultation fee is the scam, they dont do anything with you, apart from lye you down & give you1 or 2 shots from the chiro tool & that was an Expensive 1-2 shots at £45
its just a way to try & Justify the fee youve Payed.
Also the place is like an old barn
No wheelchair access & the
toilet facilities
Are absolutely appalling
to say the least,
as i fell down in there.
So do be Careful, as
you will be
Paying for an Expensive
Lye down.
ive been Stung, & would like to inform others incase thier unsure as i was

Came to see Doctor James Rousseau in October 2020 after failing down the stairs during the first lockdown ( My wife was a previous client). I was in a pretty bad way with chronic pain in my legs and in general in pretty bad way with my condition really affecting my wellbeing.
After the initial consultation it was decided between the both of us to attend the practice initially every week for 12 weeks where after we would then decide the next step of any more treatment.
12 weeks in i was in a much better place where the pain started to ease gradually and my overall flexibility dramatically increased

Do not go here if you value your orthopaedic health. I attended some years ago with an unstable right knee and it is only with time that I realise that one of these chiropractors may of compromised my knee forever.
I was young - 26 years old at the time and I was looking for some relief for my knee stability and pain. The chiropractor placed me on my front after no proper tests done for possible ACL and/or PCL injuries. They then literally 'wrenched' my knee up and flexed it completely out of position repeatedly - hyperflexed with me in agony. I said for them to stop and they tried reassuring

Thank you to James at the Birmingham Chiropractic Clinic, he has treated my baby daughter for back tension due to severe colic. Every time we attended an appointment, James has been so welcoming and we have always left with my daughter seeming much happier and in less pain. She used to cry every time she went into her car seat, for the whole journey! And now she is happy in there, no longer in pain and sleeping better. Thank you James!

I really can't fault the service here, punctual, friendly and at the same time responsible for more than a few miraculous recoveries in my family alone. My wife, for example, was dismissed by her GP with essentially a lifetime prescription for a not-small dose of codeine but a handful of sessions with Liam had her in near mint condition. Despite my misgivings about witch doctoring with toffee hammers the practitioners here have earned my trust and respect several times over.

I have attended the BCC for a shoulder issue and my wife for a serious back issue. Prior to the treatment, she could hardly walk and I was beginning to think she could have a chronic pain syndrome in her back for a considerable period of time.
In both cases, there was exemplary service and attention to detail, and we both recovered after treatment. Even after my wife’s first appointment, she was able to walk out with a relatively normal gait ... which was frankly astounding given how she had walked in! James Rousseau is clear on what he can do and what he cannot do, which adds transparency to
