Massage Therapy	£
Half Hour	35
Full Hour	58

Clinical massage therapy may be helpful as an appropriate part of your chiropractic management plan or indeed as a stand-alone therapy. Our qualified on-site massage therapist is Simon.

Simon works in conjunction with the chiropractor managing your case, should you and your chiropractor feel that extra massage therapy would be helpful, to ensure your care is ‘joined up’ and treatments complement each other effectively.

Simon also provides stand-alone massage therapy appointments for people requiring clinical sports massage.

Clinical massage involves addressing the deeper muscles of the body. It is therefore quite different to a a non-clinical relaxation massage, which is performed with a very light touch on the surface of the skin. Simon has extensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology and works to release muscles that have been traumatised, either through repetitive action or by accident, improving the range of motion of the joint or muscles involved.

Improved circulation helps to flush stagnant lactic acids that have accumulated in the muscles creating the muscle pain. A healthy muscle does not hurt and after releasing the tight muscles stretching may be performed to elongate muscles and bringing them back to original flexibility.

LILT	£
Stand alone treatment	21

Low Intensity Laser Therapy (LILT) is an excellent addition to the range of treatments we can provide. The clinic is proud to be able to offer this service which can be used in conjunction with other forms of treatment, or as a stand-alone therapy. Low Intensity Laser Therapy has plenty of evidence for effectiveness in a wide range of conditions, including inflammatory problems (e.g. Achilles tendinitis, tennis elbow), chronic and acute pain (e.g. long-term neck/low back pain, nerve pain) and degenerative conditions (e.g. osteoarthritis of the knee), to name but a few. It has been shown in research studies to provide pain relief and accelerate healing and repair of tissues.

Research has shown that healed tissue which has been treated with laser has improved quality and tensile strength, which is important because we need to carry on using the tissue as we did before it was injured. Scar tissue can greatly affect the ability of our body to carry out its normal functions, so anything that helps to minimise this is a good idea.

LILT can also be used instead of traditional acupuncture for those who are not keen on the use of needles. This means you can also enjoy the benefits acupuncture provides.

What does it feel like?

Laser therapy uses the infra-red spectrum of light to apply healing light to the cells of the painful body part. It is non-heating, you cannot feel it, and it is perfectly safe. Treatment only takes a few minutes and you will be given a pair of safety glasses to wear as a precaution.

Our laser machine was provided by Omega Laser Systems and lots of interesting and relevant information can be found on their website.

Image Type	£
X-ray	180
MRI scan	300

Collectively known as imaging, MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scans, X-rays and diagnostic ultrasound can help to work out what is at the root of your condition.

We will only propose referring your for further imaging if we feel it is necessary to the management of your case. After all there are nicer places to be than in an MRI scanner and X-rays are best in small doses!

We have partnerships with various providers for imaging. North Tees Hospital provides us with private efficient digital x-ray facilities and MRI scanning. Scan-2-Fit in provide us with our diagnostic ultrasound referral route.

The vast majority of our patients do not need to be referred for imaging and we will always talk to you about the pros and cons of imaging at your initial consultation, if we feel it would be in your interests in managing your condition. This includes summarising the costs involved.
