James’s Story

Dr James Harrison is principal Chiropractor and owner at Connective Chiropractic.

After he was diagnosed with Viral Encephalitis, James changed his career path from lawyer to Chiropractor after seeing the benefits of Chiropractic treatment as part of his care. He states that his experience became much more than just a method of treating pain, but a way of gradually fitting back the pieces of the puzzle after not having been as healthy as he could have been.

When he is not serving people as Principal Chiropractor at Connective Chiropractic, James is an expert witness for the Chiropractic profession and teaches Masters of Chiropractic students and final year interns at the McTimoney College of Chiropractic (BPP University, now owned by the College of Health Ltd and accredited by the University of Ulster). He also currently sits on the council of RAMP (The Register of Animal Musculoskeletal Practitioners)

How to choose a good Chiropractor

What to expect in each Chiropractic care stage

Our massage therapy services are lead by

Pam’s Story

Pam is passionate about offering tailored, holistic massage to help people with their health and healing. Despite over 5 years successful experience in the beauty industry prior to joining the Connective Chiropractic team, Pam wanted to expand her knowledge and increasingly specialise in remedial forms of massage.

Born in Brazil and fluent in both Portuguese and English, Pam has recently found a love for finding new and alternative ways of keeping fit and healthy. This has included regular (Ashtanga / Vinyasa) yoga practice, trying weightlifting for the first time in lockdown and cooking different types of food to help with #EmpoweringWellbeing and to keep things exciting.
