Chiropractic Care

Adjusting patient's neckGood health shouldn’t be difficult to access. After seeing the difference chiropractic care has made for so many people at our Watford and Hemel Hempstead clinics, opening a third location in St Albans was the natural next step.

Opened in March 2026, this purpose-built clinic was designed from the ground up, allowing our team to create a welcoming space where every detail has been carefully considered. Whether you’re visiting with back or neck pain, recovering from an injury or simply looking to move more comfortably, you’ll find a friendly team ready to help.

Meet Your Local Team

Chiropractor Dr Yahya leads care at the clinic, and has spent many years working within the chiropractic profession, enjoying helping people understand how chiropractic care can form part of an active, healthy lifestyle.

He’s joined by sports therapist Hannah, whose interests include shoulder pain, knee pain and balance concerns. Sports massage therapist Josh is also joining the team, expanding the range of hands-on care available at this location. Together, they take the time to understand your concerns, explain your options clearly and tailor care to your individual needs.

Why We Chose This Location

We’ve been delighted by the warm welcome from the St Albans community, where many people take an active interest in their health and well-being. By opening here, we’ve made it easier for local families to access the care and services Summit Health is known for, without travelling further afield. As a brand-new clinic, we’ve also been able to introduce sports therapy alongside chiropractic care and sports massage, giving patients another option for rehabilitation and helping people improve how they move.

What to Expect at Your Visit

From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the difference. Every stage of your visit has been thoughtfully planned to help you feel comfortable, informed and looked after.

You’ll find us at Cedar Court, close to St Albans Girls’ School (STAGS) and a short drive from Harpenden High Street. Please note the clinic is located on the first floor and does not have lift access. Parking nearby can be limited, so we recommend allowing a little extra time before your appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens at my first chiropractic appointment?

Prior to your first visit, we will send you some online forms to complete. When you arrive, our friendly reception team will welcome you, and your chiropractor will discuss the reasons for your visit before carrying out a full examination. X-rays may be taken if clinically indicated.

How often should I visit a chiropractor?

The frequency of visits depends on your exam results, health goals, and how your body responds to treatment. Some clients benefit from weekly visits, while others need adjustments only once a month or less. Your chiropractor will build a personalised care plan that outlines what’s recommended for you.

Is chiropractic care safe?

Yes. Chiropractic care is a well established, drug free approach to musculoskeletal health. Our chiropractors are fully qualified and registered with the General Chiropractic Council, and every treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs and health history.

What conditions can chiropractic care help with?

Chiropractic care is commonly used to treat back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and postural issues, as well as supporting general wellness and mobility. We will assess your specific concerns during your initial consultation and recommend the right course of care.

Will I need X-rays before starting treatment?

Not always. X-rays are typically recommended if there’s a history of trauma, unexplained pain, or if your chiropractor suspects something that needs further investigation. We have X-ray facilities on site, so this can usually be arranged quickly if needed.

How long does a chiropractic adjustment take?

Adjustments themselves are quick, usually between 2 and 5 minutes, as we’re only working with the specific joints that need attention. Your overall appointment time may be longer depending on the type of visit.
