I am not a great fan of osteopaths, mainly because I am not entirely sure how they expect their…read moresystem to work. The last time I had a bad neck, I started off by trying the osteopath, who assured me that he could help: certainly, his words and massage did help me. However, the recovery wasn't quick enough, so I went to a physio. The physio said I had to choose: osteopath (at a fair price per session) or physiotherapy on the NHS. I went for the cheap and, as it turned out, effective, option. However, I had had some signs of improvement in my fortnight at this osteopath, and do believe that his work did some good. It was not madly expensive, compared to other treatments (chiropractic, I am looking at you), and there was a sense of genuine attention, not just bilking the sucker from his cash. If you understand and believe in the process, this is a nice and professional clinic.

I have very limited experience in this field of purchasing treatments etc, however I know a few…read morepeople who swear by them and are big fans. One of these said people, has got to be my gran; although she is a big fan of almost any time of alternative medicine, remedy or - well, hell anything. And I reckon this is what it can, in some cases, primarily come down to. If you believe and have faith in alternative medicine and remedies, then they will tend to do the job. All this mind over matter stuff should not be taken too lightly. Therefore, this place is a great option for osteopathic needs, as it's: 1) Clean, tidy and comfortable. 2) Has a good range of opening hours. 3) Is well staffed. 4) The staff are pleasant, personable and extremely knowledgeable. 5) Their prices are pretty reasonable as far as these things go. Though, if you are convinced these treatments will not work then, best not to waste your money proving yourself correct.

I went to Bearsden after hurting my back while on holiday. I went for the free consultation and my…read morepractitioner was Daniel -he was absolutely wonderful! I was not a good candidate at that time to remain as a patient bc of time restraints. However, I strongly recommend this place for your chiropractic needs. The fact that they offer a free consultation demonstrates their commitment to patient needs. As a medical professional myself, I was so very impressed from walking into reception, to meeting Daniel, and leaving. This place is solid and I'm damn sad they are not located in Michigan!

Feeling so much better after just one treatment. Thank you Jenny. Why did I take painkillers for…read moreall that time? don't put off - just go!

I usually prefer going to an osteopath when I have back problems as I find the process more gentle,…read morebut when my regular osteo moved out of town I discovered Dawn Blaser. Dawn is American, great fun, and a damn good chiropractor. I don't go to her very often, but when things get really bad she can usually have me straightened out in under 15 minutes and often in just one session. She doesn't mess about - a quick appraisal of your range of mobility, then it's onto the table for some serious crunching. Almost before you're even aware of what's going on, you suddenly find that you can move much better and things don't seem to hurt as much as when you came in. "It's just simple bio-mechanics," she says. She is fast, efficient, and very effective. Sadly not terribly cheap, but she is very, very good at what she does and is well worth the expense. I know she treats a lot of professional dancers and I hear nothing but praise from them about her, so that's as good an endorsement as you're likely to find.

I am not a big fan of chiropractic, and so this is reflected in my review. I had a sequence of…read moretreatments here, and was never satisfied that it was doing any good. I was never sure whether the system was based on anything other than faith. That said, Glasgow Chiropractic are very willing to offer support and help, and do free tasters and group lessons on how to manage the back. Personally, I got more out of massage and regular exercise, but one of the guys I saw (who sadly left) almost inspired me to a great degree of confidence. Sadly, it seems very much to depend on who you get, as the actual theory is not necessarily coherent.

I choose 3 stars because I was slightly bewildered by my painful encounter with the chiropractor…read morehere, I am really not sure how I was suppose to feel after this treatment? The doctor had recommended I go to a chiropractor because I was suffering back pain in the lower region of my back, so I booked an appointment. They asked me a few things then had a look at my back, I was poked and prodded in the back until they had decided that they had sufficiently fixed what they could. It did make a difference though to how often my back was getting sore, as it was mostly running that was when it got sore. They gave me a few exercises to do to strengthen up the muscles in those areas, which I still do from time to time. I found that the benefit from the treatment did not last but this was at no fault of the Back Place as I did not return for treatment, when I was suppose to. It is a little pricey all in all but if it fixes an aching back that might get worse than it must be worthy it.

While hunting out places to purchase my extremely active and gardening made granny a 'real, proper…read moremassage' (as she calls it), I came across this place. They offer an extensive range of treatments to cure, or aid, almost anything. This includes: headaches; neck pain' sciatica; leg pain; joint stiffness; flexibility; fatigue; tension; shoulder pain; back ache; response times (what?! why?) and strength. Now, when a pretty clueless me went chapping I was warmly invited in by the staff. They then gave me tons of information and could suggest particular treatments with a whole host of slight variations to suit granny's requested needs. Despite, these needs being very vague, the staff put on a great show with their impressive knowledge. The prices did seem fairly outputting. However, it is worth keeping in mind that these treatments are on the more specialist side of things. So certainly, a decent place to go with although I opted for elsewhere.
