Shifnal Chiropractic began life on The Parade in Shifnal in 2008, founded by Jonathon Sharp as a satellite clinic from his main clinic in Shrewsbury. In 2010, Jon took on Laura Cunningham as an associate at both clinics, and by 2012 Jon was so busy at his Shrewsbury clinic he decided he would pass Shifnal Chiropractic Clinic on to Laura.
Since then, the clinic has gone from strength to strength and is now a thriving, friendly clinic with an excellent reputation for truly patient-centered care. Top tip: Once you arrive on Dyas Close, your satnav may tell you to bear left to find number 5. Ignore it! Continue straight on down to the bottom, and there is a shared driveway that disappears off to the RIGHT.

You may already be aware that Chiropractic is a healthcare profession, specifically interested in the application of certain techniques to remedy a variety of disorders such as back pain, joint pain and muscle aches. But what are these "certain techniques", and what exactly is encompassed by the phrase "healthcare profession"?
During the course of your treatment with a Chiropractor, it is quite likely that at some point the use of an "adjustment" or "manipulation" will be brought up. These two words are interchangeable, so for the sake of clarity here we shall just use "adjustment". An adjustment is aimed primarily at the joints.
Straight off, let me say that the massage I am talking about is nothing like that nice soothing process involving oils, scented candles and much relaxing. While I am indeed aiming to relax certain muscles, and I use my hands to achieve that, it is much more specifically targeted than that holiday-type massage.
Affectionately known by Chiropractors as "rehab", this stage of your care is specifically targeted at stopping your initial problem coming back and preventing future injuries from occurring. At Shifnal Chiropractic, we try to make sure that you have as much control over your own health as possible - if we can give you the tools to enable you to never have to visit a Chiropractor again, then we view that as a success!
Sports massage is not specifically a Chiropractic treatment method, but it is nevertheless a very useful technique which we recommend at Shifnal Chiropractic Clinic. Essentially, sports massage is a form of massage which uses a much firmer pressure than some other forms to really work deep into the muscle.

I’ve seen Laura twice now. Both times I’ve found her to be very knowledgeable and for sure extremely good at what she does. I would thoroughly recommend Shifnal Chiropractor Clinic, it is very clean, welcoming and Laura is such a lovely friendly person and makes you feel at ease… but most of all she made me better : ) The fees are reasonable too. I’m not someone who takes pills for pain, they just mask the issue but don’t treat it. I believe Its better to get checked out by a specialist and treated correctly. Thank you for helping me Laura.

I have never been to a chiropractor before, perhaps a little fearful of what I didn't know. I did something to my back (that has happened before) and just knew I needed help, the ibuprofen just was not covering it this time. I would advise anyone in such situations to just get straight onto Shifnal chiropractor and get sorted. The enquiry call was handled very professionally and this reassured me. Laura herself is amazing, very honest, friendly and talented. Not only sorted me out within a couple of visits but also gave me some helpful advice about caring for my back, not the usual stuff about
