If you're coming in as a chiropractic patient, we'll start with improving your nervous system. If you can benefit from our other services, we'll recommend those to you as well.
Over 30 years I have had every kind of physiotherapy, muscle specialists and doctors for back pains, nothing really worked, well not for long! I honestly thought that Steve would of told me on my assessment that 1, he couldn't find anything. 2, there's nothing he could do if there was!

On my assessment I was made to feel so at ease and told not to worry, with all the ohh dears along my spine he just looked at me and said the good thing is you are here now.This statement could not be more true, with each step and each visit I could feel the difference, now about 2 months later I am no longer trying to figure out how to put one leg in front of the other, the pain levels are almost none consistent and I SLEEP!
A friend suggested I try chiropractic. I'd never even heard of it before. I decided to give it a go, and it was amazing to see instant results. It worked fantastically well for me and I wondered why chiropractic was so effective when the medical world didn't have any answers. My dad suggested I consider becoming a chiropractor, and I realised it was a great idea.
Your visits to our clinic are focused on you. On your first visit, we'll get to know you and understand what you're seeking help with. After we discuss your health goals, we'll work with you towards finding solutions that will address your concerns. We'll begin by asking you to fill out some basic paperwork.

You've waited long enough!
If you are suffering, don't wait for a second longer to book an appointment with Steve. You will kick yourself for leaving it as long as you did!

I have been to Steve for some years now. Initially to solve a problem with my back, neck and shoulder: and now for preventive treatment every so aften.
My aim being to prevent trouble. This has worked very well and and also is cost effective.
Well done Steve, aided by Stormy a most efficient secretary and organiser.

I was very nervous about my first appointment, too many silly clips from films!
But what a fantastic experience.
Stormee - Mrs McCarthy, the receptionist. Put me at ease straight away with a warm smile and friendly chat.
Steve - Mr McCarthy, the chiropractor. Also put me at ease, and checked in with me throughout treatment.
I've had a problem with my shoulder for years and years. One treatment, the relief was immense.
Although I'm a wee bit sore now, it's nothing I wasn't advised about and still better than the excruciating pain I have endured for years.
I can't recommend this lovely couple

I was an absolute sceptic prior to visiting Active Chiropractic, I could not have been more wrong! My extremely sore shoulder is no more, and I feel so much better as a whole. I visit Steve every 10 weeks or so now and will continue to do so. Steve and Stormee are two of the nicest people I have ever met and they deserve their hard earned success :)

Steve has resolved a long standing problem that I'd previously been given medicine for that just alleviated this problem temporarily .. Now, after Steve's amazing work that problem has gone . No more discomfort and pills I am delighted. Thankyou Steve and Stormee for the wonderful service you provide.

Steve runs a fantastic friendly service. I had a crook neck and he released it in two adjustments on my ribs, my back was also released with a couple of sessions. Absolutely would recommend this guy, superb!!
