Meet The Team
Chiropractic at Tweed Chiropractic is primarily concerned with providing holistic, natural healthcare for all ages.
We use a proven protocol which has been developed over many decades to help our patients achieve the best results. When we think holistically, we might say we treat knee pain or put more correctly we help people with knee pain. It is the concern for the person as a whole that is paramount. Secondly our care is completely natural and uses no drugs or any other intervention except to amplify and maximise the incredible potential that we all have for healing and living the best life we can.
​
To us treating Pain is like turning down the volume on the fire alarm not actually fighting the fire. We aim to find out what is wrong and get your body to heal the problem rather than just “treating” the symptom by masking it.
​
We uniquely have the only certified Cranial Chiropractor in Scotland, and we integrate a cranial approach completely into our practice.

Sacro Occipital Technique
One of our chiropractors Dr Donald Francis is a certified practitioners of Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT), pioneered by the renowned American chiropractor Dr. Major DeJarnette, DO DC. Dr. DeJarnette also played a pivotal role in advancing Cranial Chiropractic.
​
SOT focuses on the interplay between the pelvis and the cranium, aiming to restore their harmonious function to promote spinal health. A hallmark of SOT involves the use of wedge-shaped blocks placed under the pelvic bones.
​
Chiropractors believe that by enhancing spinal function through SOT, they can potentially improve the neurological connection between the brain, spine, and body, leading to overall health enhancement.
​
This technique is known for its gentle approach and includes protocols for addressing visceral and extremity issues, offering a comprehensive solution for whole-body health.
​​
Our approach is known as Brain Based Chiropractic because it is based on the fact that everything that happens to us or which we cause to happen is a result of the brain and how it communicates with our body and the outside world.
The entire process is systematised to ensure that the brain and the body become as coherent as possible. It is based on the fact that we all distort in a predictable manner and therefore we can quickly understand what is required to bring the body and brain back to coherence.
It is a pioneering approach developed by our Principal Chiropractor Dr Donald Francis and hs been taught widely throughout the UK and Europe.
