My name is Charles Westcott I have trained and worked as a Chiropractor since 1988, having had a previous career in business, and before that for 10 years in the British Army, and latterly the Australian Army. I established the Wellsway Chiropractic Clinic in 1994. The Clinic has grown steadily over the years.
What is Chiropractic? Chiropractic is a registered primary health care profession. Chiropractors are trained to diagnose, treat, manage and prevent disorders of the musculoskeletal system (bones, joints and muscles). Chiropractors use a range of techniques to reduce pain, improve function and increase mobility, including hands-on-manipulation of the spine.
Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) is a specialised, comprehensive, gentle and innovative Chiropractic technique developed in the USA in 1925 by Dr De Jarnette. It is named because of the relationship between the Sacrum (base of the spine) and the Occiput (base of the skull). One of the functions of the sacrum is to pump Cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) from the base of the spine, back up the spinal canal to the brain, and throughout the nervous system.

I have disc degeneration and have been visiting Charles on and off for over 10 years now and I wouldn't see anyone else...The sacro occipital technique he uses is very gentle and relaxing...Charles always describes everything hes doing, why hes doing it that way, and how it will benefit me...I've recommended Charles to several friends and they visit him now...when everything on me starts seizing up and I'm in a lot of pain Charles is my favourite go to person...its not always a quick fix but I know he will fix me so I'm more comfortable until I need to see him again...Highly recommended.

Charles Wescott is an expert!! I have had an almost permanent problem with my pelvis that affected my ribs and inevitable my loungs and bowel. I have tried other chiropractors in Bath that they made me worse. Gps wouldn't be able to locate the problem with my breath. I can finaly breath see and think correctly. I don't know how to thank him.

Charles certainly seems to be good at what he does. I have had persistent lower back and shoulder pain for years. I've tried several practitioners - both chiros and physios - with mixed results, but Charles was the first to 'crack the code' and actually work out precisely what was causing the pain, and a (fairly quick) solution to fix it. He was also happy to give a proper explanation of what he was doing and how it solved the problem. Very pleased.

I have been going to the Wellsway Chiropractic Clinic for over 20 years and wouldn't go anywhere else, Charles is brilliant, I can't recommend him highly enough. Myself and all of my family use him. I travel from Bridgwater to Bath to see Charles always worth the journey, have never found anyone else who can help me like Charles does.
