I’ve spent an absolute fortune over the years seeing different chiropractors, physios and other professionals, trying to get some relief. I honestly couldn’t believe the difference after just ONE session here! The relief I felt was incredible, and now, two months later, I genuinely feel like a new person. I really can’t recommend them highly enough. Everyone there is so friendly and welcoming, and they are extremely knowledgeable, I go to Sebastian, however, I have friends that go to the other partners there and they assured me That it is not only Sebastian but all of them that take the time to listen to what you’re saying and really understands what you need. I just wish I’d found them sooner! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When I first went to Innate I had difficulty walking and even on occasions standing for more than a few minutes before needing to sit due to chronic lower back pain. Thanks to Seb who has worked wonders with the adjustments he has made I am at last able to enjoy walking the dog virtually pain free. I would definitely recommend him.
A fantastic facility with dedicated parking, friendly, caring staff! Within a month of treatment my neck and upper back issues are almost a distant memory and my lower back pain seems to be following suit. Hannes and the team are frankly miracle workers and I know for sure that I am in the best possible hands! Also, complimentary use of the rehabilitation room’s vibration therapy and infrared treatment bed are a huge bonus! Thanks guys!! 🙂
I am so delighted with the care I have received from Innate. My shoulder pain has eased dramatically and I feel more comfortable all round. Flexible times to suit busy lives as well. Can't recommend enough!
I have tried osteopaths and physiotherapists to help me with my pain and discomfort, none of them took the time to get to the real problems, Jake just knows how to fix you. He has persevered and helped me in so many ways, I feel the benefits of every adjustment he’s made.
I booked up 20 Idd therapy treatments … for post Surgury spine disc issues along with a numb foot … Jake and staff very pleasant , professional and knowledgable , making progress already .. I would certainly recommend this treatment
Great specialists, I had lower back pain and sciatica pain during pregnancy. Hannes helped me, highly recommend
I wholeheartedly recommend Hannes. He is a true professional 💪

Chiropractor, MCHIRO
My journey into health and wellness began with a passion for sports like basketball, volleyball, football, and weightlifting, which taught me the importance of strength, teamwork, and perseverance. I was first introduced to Chiropractic when I saw how it helped me recover from a serious injury and it got me back to peak performance. That experience lit a spark in me, and I knew I wanted to help others in the same way.
In 2018 I graduated from the University of Portsmouth with a Sports Science degree before I graduated from the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in 2023. As a chiropractor, my focus isn’t just on relieving pain—I’m passionate about helping people understand their bodies and take charge of their health.
Chiropractic care is all about keeping the body in balance and supporting overall wellness. I enjoy teaching my patients how to take care of their spine and adopt healthy habits, so they can feel their best every day. My goal is to inspire people to live healthier, more vibrant lives, and to make a lasting, positive difference in my community.’

A chiropractor is highly skilled to detect and correct issues in the spine and joints that alter our bodies ability to function well and maintain a state of health. Chiropractors focus on the nervous system and its ability to regulate our spinal health, muscle tension, posture and joint motion. Chiropractors train at Masters level for 4-5 years at university to understand expertly how the body functions. They also learn a multitude of approaches to help people recover their health and live better lives.
By analysing the skeletal frame, paying particular attention to the balance of the pelvis, the shoulder girdle and the head-on-neck relationship, chiropractors are able to find patterns of stress in the body. These stress and tension patterns accumulate over time and can be the result of injury, habitual postural stress such as sitting at a desk, stress related to our mental and emotional health, and biochemical stresses from toxins in our diet and the environment. These accumulated stress patterns alter our posture, muscle tension and ability of our joints to move well. These changes can lead to pain and degeneration over time.
Chiropractors use adjustments to correct these imbalances. Adjustments can be done in a variety of ways and adapted to the person’s needs, and most often involve a quick gentle thrust to the spine or other joints to loosen restricted and misaligned joints. Chiropractors may also use rehab exercises and stretches to compliment the adjustment.
Chiropractors treat misalignments and imbalances in the spinal column that affect our ability to function at our best. These imbalances can present themselves in many ways, manifesting as back pain, neck pain, headaches, shoulder issues, pains in other joints like the knee and ankle, muscle tension and an inability to relax, disc issues such as a disc prolapse or hernia, and sciatica. Rather than treating the symptoms, we look for the root cause by assessing your posture and spinal movement.
Chiropractors and osteopaths tend to see the same type of issues and both are exceptional for helping people get well. Chiropractors tend to focus more on the health and function of the nervous system, whereas osteopaths tend to focus more on the muscles. Nowadays there is a lot of crossover and there are more similarities than differences. The important thing is to find a practitioner who has honed his craft and made it his or her mission to become exceptional at what they do.
Chiropractic is a very broad profession and there are many different ways to adjust the spine. A good chiropractor will have learnt different techniques and approaches that he can utilise depending on the client and their particular issues.
Chiropractors see patients all the time who come with sciatica. Sciatica is a general term that refers to pain that runs from the pelvis down the leg and often to the calf or foot. Strictly speaking, sciatica is where the large nerve (the sciatic nerve) that runs from the pelvis down the leg, gets irritated, often as a result of a disc hernia, or muscle tension in the buttock area. In the majority of cases, chiropractic is an excellent treatment option.
Back pain is the most common reason for visiting a chiropractor. Back pain is most often the result of a misaligned or restricted pelvis and lower back. These imbalances can pull our muscles tight and lead to further changes that affect other areas, like the mid or upper back, neck, hips and legs.
Chiropractors have traditionally used the honorary title Doctor, or Doctor of Chiropractic. We are not medical doctors and Chiropractic is a well defined speciality in its own right. It should not be confused with being medically treated as a doctor. All Chiropractors must be registered with the General Chiropractic Council in order to use the title ‘Chiropractor’.
We don’t stipulate a specific dress code as all our assessments and procedures can be done fully clothed. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing that isn’t restrictive. You will need to remove your shoes, belt and jumper. We have gowns available if necessary.
Chiropractors treat some sports injuries depending on the nature of the injury and where it is. If you are unsure, contact us to see if we can help.
The cost of a Chiropractic visit can vary, generally ranging from £40 to £50, with the initial consultation usually costing a bit more. The price may reflect the location and the level of service involved. Generally speaking, you are not paying for the length of the session but the skill and expertise that that chiropractor offers.
Chiropractic is incredibly safe. We are trained to know when it may not be suitable to adjust someone in certain instances, in which case we can refer you to your GP and request some imaging like an x-ray or MRI.
When searching for a good chiropractor, a word of mouth recommendation can be very useful. Be sure to check out their website and the google reviews. The chiropractor will be more than happy to answer any queries you may have.
One of the best ways to find a great chiropractor near you is to get a recommendation from a friend or family member. Failing that, search for ‘local chiropractors near me’, compare things like their treatment approach, price and style of care they provide. Be sure to read their google reviews. You can also find registered chiropractors on the GCC (General Chiropractic Council). The biggest chiropractic associations are the British Chiropractic Association (BCA) and the United Chiropractic Association (UCA). They will also have a directory of their registered chiropractors.
How often you should visit a chiropractor will depend on many factors, namely the nature of your condition and how severe it is. Typically in the beginning your chiropractor will likely see you twice a week for an initial short phase, then reducing the frequency as you get better. Your chiropractor will factor things in such as your age, general health condition, your health goals and how long you have had your pain.
Yes, all our chiropractors are registered with the GCC governing body, and are members of the United Chiropractic Association. You can read more in our blog ‘Are Chiropractors regulated in the UK? GCC registration explained‘.
