Does this sound like your back?

Most people who come to us have already tried resting it, stretching it or waiting for it to pass. If it keeps coming back, it needs looking at properly.

  • Back pain that eases for a while and then comes back
  • Pain running from your back or buttock down one leg
  • Pins and needles, numbness or a weak leg or foot
  • A scan report that mentions a bulge, prolapse or degeneration
  • Sitting, driving or standing for long starts to hurt
  • You've been told to manage it, and you'd rather fix it

Disc injuries and sciatica are what we treat every day

  • The UK's first dedicated disc clinic

    We opened as the UK's first clinic dedicated to disc injuries, so your chiropractor has seen your problem many times before.

  • A team around you, not one pair of hands

    Your chiropractor leads your care and our practitioners work alongside them on rehabilitation, so you're seen by the right person at each stage.

  • People travel here for a reason

    Most of our patients come from Surbiton, Kingston and the surrounding area, and some travel from the other end of the country to be treated here.

Everything you need to get back to your best in one place

Our chiropractors, rehab practitioners and assistants all work from the clinic on Claremont Road.

  • Spinal decompression

    Our RenuvaDisc tables take the pressure off the discs and nerves in your lower back or neck.

  • Shockwave, laser and nerve stimulation

    These are used alongside hands-on adjustments when your plan calls for them.

  • Rehab that keeps it from coming back

    Our practitioners take you through the exercises once the pain has settled.

Your examination, then your results the next day

  1. 1

    A proper examination

    Your chiropractor goes through your history, examines you and tests how your back and nerves are behaving. If X-rays are needed, we take them here the same day.

  2. 2

    Your results the next day

    You come back for a Results Appointment where we show you what we found, explain what's causing the pain and go through the plan we'd recommend.

  3. 3

    Treatment starts

    If you're happy with the plan, treatment begins straight away. If we're not the right people to help, we'll tell you and point you to someone who is.

If you already have an MRI, bring the report and we'll go through it with you.

The DISC team are amazing! My prolapse and sciatica feel immensely better after 5 sessions with Dimitrus. Thank you to all the team for your amazingness! My favorite treatment of all time

Paul Meehan10/06/2025

William showed great care in my first assessment for my Sciatic pain. Extremely efficient service. Left a message in the morning. Assessed in the afternoon.

Josephine Hannah13/09/2025

This place is a god send. After years of back pain and seeing multiple practitioners and not really having a proper diagnosis of what’s wrong, I finally have a clear diagnosis and treatment plan. The team are so well trained and their treatments are amazing. So grateful to have been recommended to them by a friend. If you have back problems, this is the place to go!

Doug .G10/12/2025

Great service from Dimitris and the team. Went in with lower back pain. After x-ray and review, he identified the issues and started treatment. Back is feeling significantly better.

Nila Bajwa16/01/2025

Very pleasant experience despite the pain I was in. I was having treatment for lower back and Sciatica nerve trap. Very thorough and explained every treatment before starting and constantly asking how I was during the treatment. Definitely worth visiting if you experience any back, neck, shoulder or sciatica problems.

Natasha Laslett09/12/2025

Honestly the best chiropractor looking at the body holistically as a whole and targeting long term recovery. Having had whiplash and sciatica due to car accidents along the years aswell as sports injuries - I feel like I’m finally on the road to recovery. Awesome team!

emile adlem15/12/2025

After having chronic lower back pain for a while, I came here to find a solution. They not only helped me function better on a day to day basis, but also guided me on how to make sustainable changes to prevent the reoccurrence. I couldn’t recommend enough

john abraham11/12/2025

I have had back problems for many years. Over the last two years I’ve seen many specialists, but with little or no improvement. My last pain specialist recommended that I should try to find somewhere that provided neural traction. After much research, I eventually found Disc who offered spinal decompression. I was quite sceptical at the outset, but am now a convert. Will has been great and very supportive

Dylan Ponting04/01/2026

The team at DISC were brilliant, my issue was diagnosed quickly and the treatment was effective. My treatment plan was laid out and explained to me very clearly from the start and everyone there was super friendly and helpful!

Questions patients ask before their first visit

Do I need a referral from my GP?

No. You can book directly with us. If you're claiming through health insurance, check whether your insurer needs a GP referral first, as some do.

Is chiropractic safe if I have a disc problem?

Treating disc injuries is what the clinic was set up to do. Your chiropractor examines you first and only recommends treatment that's appropriate for what they find. If your problem needs a scan or a different specialist, we say so at your results appointment.

How soon can I be seen?

We're open 8am to 7pm Monday to Friday and Saturday mornings, and we can usually see you within the week. Tell us when you leave your number if it's urgent.

How long does treatment take?

It depends on what's causing the pain and how long you've had it. You get a recommended plan at your results appointment, with the number of visits and the cost set out before anything starts.

Can you treat me if I've had surgery or a joint replacement?

Often, yes. Tell your chiropractor about any surgery when you come in and they'll take it into account in your examination and plan.

Can I use my health insurance?

We're recognised by Bupa, AXA Health, Aviva, WPA, Cigna and Vitality. Bring your policy details and we'll help you with the paperwork.
