Spinal Therapists

Background:

They are specialists in gentle yet effective whole body treatment. The treatment was created by John McTimoney and later refined and developed by Hugh Corley (a student of John McTimoney) and Shelagh James-Hudson, for the promotion of good health and general well-being in humans and animals. McTimoney-Corley Spinal Therapists are a separate organisation to McTimoney Chiropractic, although they share a common founder John McTimoney.
