Best overall chiropractor in Telford: multi-disciplinary Wellington clinic with published fees and checkable records

Trading as The Centre for Positive Health Ltd · 13 Whitchurch Road, Wellington, Shropshire, TF1 3DS · Service area: Telford, Wellington

Centre for Positive Health in short

Centre for Positive Health is a Wellington clinic where chiropractic sits alongside massage, complementary therapies and counselling under the same roof. Three chiropractors practise there, each on the GCC register, and the clinic states it has held Royal College of Chiropractors quality marks for many years. A limited company active for over two decades stands behind the name, and the full fee list is published on the site. In our judgement this is the most complete chiropractic offer in the round, and that breadth is why it leads our Telford table.

The record shows chiropractic, massage, complementary therapy and counselling from the Whitchurch Road clinic, serving Telford and Wellington, with phone, form and online booking across the working week. Patient reviews are warm: Google gives a headline rating of 4.8 out of 5, the only public review source we hold for this practice. Fees run from the new-patient consultation to a set per-treatment rate with prepayment options for longer plans.

What counts against it in our judgement is paperwork rather than practice: no insurance detail is published, and the clinic takes no direct payment from insurers, so patients pay in full and reclaim. Neither gap touches the treatment itself, and both are stated plainly on the clinic's own site. The Centre for Positive Health suits you if you want a Wellington clinic with several chiropractors and therapies beyond adjustments under the same roof.

Questions about Centre for Positive Health

Is the Centre for Positive Health any good?

On the evidence, yes for anyone who wants a multi-disciplinary clinic: it leads our Telford chiropractors table, with three GCC-registered chiropractors, checkable company and registration records, and fees published in full. The gaps are insurance paperwork and direct insurer billing. Read the full review and its sources, then book an assessment by phone, form or online booking.

Are its chiropractors registered with the GCC?

Yes. Simon David Pierce and Thomas David Gwilliam appear on the GCC register as practising, both showing the clinic as their workplace, and Charles Douglas Bertoia is registered too. The clinic also states Royal College of Chiropractors quality marks on its site. You can confirm every number yourself on the GCC register.

What does the Centre for Positive Health charge?

The fee list is published: a new-patient consultation, a set rate per treatment, and prepayment plans for longer courses, with written cancellation terms. The clinic takes no direct payment from insurers, so patients pay in full and reclaim where their policy allows. Ask for the total likely cost of your programme in writing before treatment starts.

Where does the Centre for Positive Health work?

It works from 13 Whitchurch Road in Wellington and lists Telford and Wellington as its service area. Treatment happens at the clinic, so you travel to it, with council car parks nearby. Send your postcode with your enquiry to confirm you are covered, and ask about step-free access when you book.

How do I get a quote or book a visit?

Contact the clinic by phone, contact form or the online booking calendar during office hours. The first step is an assessment, after which the chiropractor sets out the techniques, the likely sessions and the cost. Ask for that plan with the total programme cost in writing, plus the cancellation terms.

What do the reviews say?

Google shows a headline rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 25 reviews, which is the only public review source we hold for this practice. That is a warm but modest-sized record for a clinic of this standing. Read the reviews yourself on the listing, and weigh them alongside the registration and company records on this page.

How does it compare with the other Telford practice?

It is the broader offer against a solo practice: several chiropractors plus massage and complementary therapies, against one named chiropractor with continuity at every visit. Hayley White answers with Saturday hours and exact per-visit fees, while the Centre answers with depth and a checkable company record. Both publish their fees and hold GCC registration.

How is the Centre for Positive Health ranked?

It ranks first of the two Telford practices in our September round. What patients say counts most toward the score, then proof of registration, then trading history and openness about fees. The table is set in score order, and this clinic leads on breadth of offer with checkable records behind it.
