I can now return home pain-free and enjoy life again

4.5 50 Physiotherapist Consultation

My family got such wonderful results with treatment that I travelled all the way from Moldova to see Dr. Christian. I have been so happy with the standard of care, the attention to detail and the results. I can now return home pain-free and enjoy life again. I would recommend anyone who is wanting to get their health back on track to go and see the health team at BodyWell

I am so pleased about the results I get

5 50 Chiropractor Consultation

Regular chiropractic treatment is very important to me and I am glad I found this excellent team in Kent. I have been a regular at Bodywell for many years now, and I am so pleased about the results I get. Dr Christian and his team are experts at what they do, and are always very friendly and helpful. Thanks to regular adjustments and deep tissue sessions, my back and neck feel much better than before, with less pain and more flexibility. Occasional laser treatments have also been very beneficial for annoying feet pain. The team help me stay motivated with exercise and general well-being, and think about my posture more often, which also helps.

I’m incredibly grateful for the care and knowledge I’ve gained here

5 50 Chiropractor Consultation

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Chiropractic Care & Holistic Health Support

I can’t recommend BodyWell Chiropractic highly enough. From the moment you walk in, you’re met with a welcoming and knowledgeable team that genuinely cares about your well-being. Unlike many health practitioners who simply treat symptoms, the team here takes a deeper, more holistic approach—helping you understand the root cause of any issues rather than just masking them with quick fixes.

Since coming to BodyWell, I’ve seen incredible improvements in my health. The adjustments are tailored to my individual needs, and their holistic teachings have given me valuable insights into posture, movement, and overall wellness. It’s not just about spinal health—it’s about a complete mind-body approach to feeling and functioning better.

What sets them apart is their genuine passion for helping people, their expertise, and their willingness to educate and empower clients. It’s frustrating to see unfair or misleading reviews online because my experience has been nothing but positive. If you’re looking for trustworthy, experienced, and effective chiropractic care, BodyWell is the place to go.

I’m incredibly grateful for the care and knowledge I’ve gained here.

The pressure went after just one visit and I feel so much better, the tension has gone

5 50 Chiropractor Consultation

MY REVELATION. I have never thought of going to a chiropractor and was recommended by a friend. It has been eye-opening! I have had constant pressure behind my head for years, limited movement in my neck and had migraines since I can remember. I have also seen my posture deteriorate over the past few years. I would always just take pain killers until now.....

I went to BodyWell and had testing, an x-ray and nerve scans, all of which revealed the CAUSE of my pain. I've had just 3 visits and cannot believe how effective it has been. The pressure went after just one visit and I feel so much better, the tension has gone and I am looking forward to my next visit next week! Thank you, THANK YOU!

Your spine and sanity will thank you

4 50 Dentist Consultation

As a teacher, I spend most of my day either hunched over a desk grading papers or pacing around the classroom, and it finally caught up with me—my back felt like it was staging a protest. I decided to visit BodyWell, and Dr. Christian was like, “Let’s get you back to standing tall for your students!”

After a few sessions, I noticed a big difference. My back wasn’t screaming at me anymore, and I could get through a school day without collapsing into a chair afterwards. The team at BodyWell is so friendly, making you feel right at home. If you’re a teacher like me and your back is feeling burnt out, do yourself a favour and see Dr. Christian. Your spine (and sanity) will thank you!

Each visit has been an eye-opening experience as I’ve learned something new every time

Physiotherapist Consultation

Dr. Christian and the BodyWell team have been a tremendous help! Each visit has been an eye-opening experience, as I’ve learned something new every time. Finally discovering the root cause of my lifelong headaches has been life-changing.

After suffering from daily headaches for as long as I can remember, I’m absolutely thrilled to say that I no longer get any headaches. I’m so grateful for the care and expertise of Dr. Christian and the team!

The clinic has such a calming and welcoming vibe and they really make you feel like a priority

Headache Clinic

I went to BodyWell after months of dealing with constant headaches that wouldn’t go away no matter what I tried. From my first visit, Dr. Christian and his team were incredibly kind and thorough. He explained how tension in my neck and upper back might be contributing to the headaches, which no one else had ever pointed out before.

After a few sessions, I literally went from daily headaches to barely any at all. The clinic has such a calming and welcoming vibe, and they really make you feel like a priority. The only downside is that they’re a busy office, so it can take a little effort to find the right appointment time. But overall, the results have been absolutely worth it!

The team are so kind and compassionate every one of them

4.5 50 Weight Loss Consultation

I finally took the plunge and decided I wanted to be a healthy woman in my 70’s. I called BodyWell as I had heard good things. I have been attending now for nine months every week and it sounds like a clique but I’m a new woman! I seem to have grown taller! Posture improved I’m sure.

My body is flexible and the bonus is 20 pounds dropped off without any effort in terms of hunger. The team are so kind and compassionate, every one of them. My state of mind is radically improved, I don’t puff going upstairs.

Mornings are my favourite time again. My blood levels are great. Dr Christian gives me the motivation I need. He is honest while being empathetic, a rare quality. I recommend everyone give themselves this gift. I’m raising my two granddaughters after the tragic loss of my daughter and now I have the frame of mind and the strength I was afraid I wouldn’t have. So there’s my story ❤️

Thank you

5 50 Physiotherapist Consultation

I have been attending BodyWell for 2.5 years and have received nothing but excellent care. Dr. Christian has successfully treated my back problems, and the physiotherapists have been incredibly helpful with exercise sessions and laser therapy for specific issues. I've also received orthotics for my flat feet, massage, and muscle stretching from a team of highly qualified therapists, as well as nutrition advice. Thank you.

This holistic approach to health and well-being has played a key role in keeping me fit and going strong at nearly 87!

The team at the clinic is so friendly and makes you feel right at home

Chiropractor Consultation

I went to BodyWell with shoulder pain that had been slowing me down for months. Dr. Christian understood exactly what was going on and came up with a plan that actually worked for me. After just a few visits, I could finally move my shoulder without that nagging pain, and I’m feeling like myself again.

The team at the clinic is so friendly and makes you feel right at home. It’s clear they genuinely care about their patients and want to see them improve.

The clinic’s environment is really welcoming and the staff makes you feel right at home

Back Pain Treatment

As a graphic designer, I’m at my desk for hours every day, and over time I developed some pretty bad neck and shoulder pain. I finally went to BodyWell, and it was a game-changer. Dr. Christian didn’t just jump into adjustments—he took the time to really understand how my work setup was affecting my posture and causing the pain.

Within just a few sessions, I noticed a huge improvement. The tension in my neck and shoulders started to disappear, and I wasn’t constantly uncomfortable while working. The clinic’s environment is really welcoming, and the staff makes you feel right at home.

I loved that it wasn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.

5 50 Activator Methods

As a teacher, I was on my feet all day, and over time, I developed this constant pain in my lower back that just wouldn’t go away. I decided to try BodyWell, and I’m so glad I did. Dr. Christian was super thorough and my treatments were tailored to fit my needs. I loved that it wasn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.

After just a few sessions, I started feeling a huge difference. The pain that used to flare up by the end of the day has almost completely disappeared, and I can move around the classroom without discomfort. I honestly can’t recommend them enough!
