Our Proven Process - what to expect
The Life Balance Chiropractic Difference
Our experienced team of our team of chiropractors and massage therapists does everything we can to create a pleasant, customised experience. During your initial consultation, we take the time to listen. Feel heard rather than given the cold shoulder. You will have a 1 on 1 consultation with the doctor of chiropracic to discuss your health concerns and the reasons for your visit.
At the conclusion of the initial health consultation, we test (don’t guess!) to diagnose the underlying cause of your problem. Your doctor of chiropractic will perform a complete and comprehensive structural and nervous system assessment.
In addition to our assessment, a series of digital standing x-rays or computerised postural check may be needed to provide us with an objective diagnostic tool, that will show us the positon of the spinal bones, posture, the quality of your spine, safety of adjusting, and how long the problem has been developing so we can give you a more accurate outcome on the recovery, healing time and recurrence of the condition.
Your report of findings will be scheduled the day after your initial consultation. We respect and care for your body too much to adjust it the first time we meet you.
Instead, your doctor of chiropractic will go away and study your x-ray or computerised postural check and marry those results together with your exam findings. That’s when your chiropractor will have the best idea of what it is going to take to get rid of your problem so you can continue to doing the things you love.
At which point your chiropractor we’ll look at all our findings and share the results that we found with you. You may invite anyone in your family to accompany you, if you choose.
Your report of findings includes answering the following questions and more for you, commitment free with no obligation and no hidden fees.
1. Can you help me ?
2. What’s my problem ?
3. How long will it take to heal?
4. What care do I require to solve the problem ?
5. What can be done to assure that it wont happen again ?
6. How much will it cost and what are my financial options for care?
We consider your goals for the future, current lifestyle choices, stressors and challenges that you want to overcome. This is why our care is comprehensive and have the highest expectation to be the solution that you have been seeking to find.
Begin your journey to better health and a better quality of life with us, commitment-free.
Join us at our poole chiropractic clinic, where a professional, caring team with years of combined experience stands ready to support your health transformation every step of the way.
Suppose we determine that we’re a good fit. Your Chiropractor will be ready to get you started on the day after your report of findings, consent to care and payment, get you feeling and functioning better immediately.
In that case, you’ll benefit from specific world-class chiropractic adjustments to break free from stuck patterns of stress, pain, tension, restriction and postures. Very different from genral spinal manipulation. They will feel like a weight coming off you. That way you can get back to doing the things you love quicker.
Your specific chiropractic adjustments will be given by your doctor of chiropractic, then anything else done during the visit will depend on your chiropractors reccomendations.
This can include lifestyle advice and customised exercises to support your healing journey, prevent future injuries and save you time. We also monitor your progress rigorously and regularly, changing your wellness program as needed.
When seeking chiropractic our entire team strives to keep waiting times to a minimum, so we ask that all clients be prompt for their appointments so we can stay on track.
Start your path to recovery and get back to living life as you love it—book your no obligation consultation today.

Excellent
Based on 118 reviewsEXCELLENT Based on 142 reviews Tracey Colquhoun Life Balance is a wonderful haven in the heart of Poole providing excellent Chiropractic care and an atmosphere of calm and tranquility through its dedicated, skilled practitioners and lovely front of house team. I have suffered with my back (and neck) for many years and, after a painful flare up, my sister suggested I try a chiropractor. I found Life Balance online and they were offering a free first consultation. I had very little knowledge of what to expect from chiropractic care but, under the guidance and capable hands of Olivia, my symptoms have greatly improved. She is a highly skilled practitioner who immediately set me at ease with her calm, friendly and open manner. During our first consultation, she clearly explained everything so that it made sense to me. Before I went, I hadn’t fully understood how my neck tensions also impact on some of the pain I had been feeling and this has been a true revelation. After my appointments, I have really noticed the changes. and go home feeling calm, relaxed and well adjusted. My back and neck feel stronger and symptoms of IBS have eased. I feel very safe in the hands of Olivia and also Harrison and Josh who have seem me when I have had to change appointments. I must also mention the wonderful receptionists/front of house team. They are so very helpful and always give a warm welcome when I arrive. I live in Swanage and signed up, in advance, for a 12 week, twice weekly programme. With life, family and other commitments this has been difficult to juggle at times but I know I can call up and will find a friendly voice at the end of the line. They are always helpful and happy to find alternative appointments so that I have successfully been able to complete these initial 12 weeks. Thank you to the whole team at Life Balance for looking after me so well. Can highly recommend. oldskoolfreestyler Hello ,for introductions my Names Paul Before i started seeing Life Balance i had been struggling with sciatica for about 30 years on & off. This last time was different & i was in incredible pain, ( i was nearly passing out ) I couldn't sit, stand, walk, work & lastly toilet (no2) my wife had to wash & dress me at 56 years old ! I lost all independence while normally im a active person from work, diy to keeping fit & working out, basically i was living on my front room floor as bed was too uncomfortable, it hit me hard & needed to do something asap, & im sure i wouldve had to wait weeks/months to be sorted with the NHS. I live 100 yards from Life Balance and on my initial consultation it took me 20 minutes to walk there ! But once i was there, i was greeted by a very friendly team & couldn't do enough to help. I had a exam & a x-ray & went back the following work day to discuss what was found wrong, ( 7 faults in my spine & neck) a treatment plan was arranged & my first adjustment with Dr Josh. Immediately i felt a big improvement, & my progress since that first adjustment is amazingly quick, i have a 3 month care plan, i have done 1 month & i returned to work after my second adjustment, i went from bedbound to back to work in 1 week ! thats not what you get on the NHS !! Something i didnt expect was my tastebuds started working better, no feeling of bloated after eating & shortness of breath & chest palpitations disapeared. These guys n girls are brilliant ! I have been seen & worked on by Dr Josh, Dr Olivia & the masseur Jo, so far i cant thank them enough for what & how quickly they have got me back on my feet, i have 2 more months of treatment to do & im sure im going to be better than i was 30 years ago when they are finished with me :-) If you are at all unsure about chiro treatment, i am living proof that these guys are amazing & know exactly what they are doing, id very highly recommend them to help with what you are suffering with, if there was such thing as a 6 star rating they would have my every one. I have also recommended my mum go see them as she has had back problems since the mid 80,s, this is being arranged with her & life balance as we speak. 5 stars and more .... thanks guys Diane Bingham Excellent Professional Care I have experienced episodes of debilitating lower back pain for many years, but as I was usually able to self-heal with rest, hot/cold therapy and painkillers, I didn’t seek professional help. However, in recent years such episodes began to occur more frequently and on the most recent occasion did not respond to self-care. I live in Poole and had often noticed the signs outside Life Balance when I walked past. I was in a lot of pain when I decided to go through the door a few weeks ago, but was immediately greeted with sympathy by the lovely front of house staff and given an urgent appointment. A full assessment and consultation with chiropractor Harrison, including X-rays, to diagnose the issues, was followed by a suggested treatment plan and anticipated time frame. Since then, twice weekly adjustments by Harrison, combined with a few 30-minute massage sessions from therapist Jo, have resulted in me being pain-free. I am also now following a prescribed exercise plan at home and am much more aware of how to care for my back in the future and hopefully prevent further problems. The professional and knowledgeable care provided by Harrison, Jo and the wider friendly support team (particularly Gail, Hope and Yasmin) has been excellent and I would definitely recommend Life Balance Chiropractic. Emily Garner I wanted to take a moment to thank both of the wonderful chiropractors who have been looking after me for 3 weeks now - Dr. Harrison and Dr. Olivia. Both of these chiropractors are very clearly highly skilled, but also have great interpersonal skills and have helped me massively in gaining confidence with chiropractic care. Before my first session I was really nervous for the experience - I was worried that it would hurt or that I would be damaged further. Both of these concerns have been completely quelled in their care, and I now look forward to my sessions and to the relief that I know each adjustment brings me. I was also apprehensive before starting care of the costs involved, but if I had known three weeks ago that I'd have progressed so much already, I'd have given any amount of money in order to be pain-free. I can't wait to complete my initial 12 weeks and see how I'm feeling then. Thank you Dr. Olivia and Dr. Harrison, and all the wonderful administrative staff who are unbelievably helpful and welcoming. Emily Sa I had an excellent experience at this centre! Under Dr Olivia's care, I saw significant improvement in my spine, neck, and shoulder pain after the sessions. Dr Olivia is professional, attentive, and creates a comfortable, supportive environment for treatment. The reception staff are also very friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better from the moment you arrive. The centre also provides private rooms, ensuring additional privacy and comfort for patients. I highly recommend this centre, especially with Dr Olivia's expertise. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to my recovery. Katyia Johnson I walked into the centre after seeing an offer online and my partner making me. I was in so much pain through my neck and back, I wasn't sleeping, I was snoring therefore reducing my partners sleep, daily headaches and reduced to tears each day because of it, all the pain became unbearable. After my in depth consultation to review everything and Xrays taken. I felt very relaxed and hopeful they could help me, the next day we reviewed my Xrays and clearly saw the reason why I was having the issues, we then agreed a set of sessions for a price which we paid in full however lots of options to choose from. The 1st adjustments will stay with me forever, what an experience, when my upper neck was adjusted it was like a tap opening and everything that had been held within me for 30+ years came flooding through my body, it was overwhelming, emotional and absolutely what I needed, they were so kind and patient with me, I was very lightheaded as it was a big adjustment which they suggested I could lie in their dark room or take as long as I needed which I was extremely grateful for. They set the expectation that some adjustments can be alot and to try and rest where others would feel great straight away, it's a journey and one I'm utterly thankful for. Dr Olivia Martin and the whole team go above and beyond, they even got me a beautiful card and flowers at the anniversary of my sons passing, they didnt need to but they did and it's that which sets them apart from the rest. They really do care! I highly recommend Dr Olivia Martin and all the Team at Life Balance Chiro in Poole, i'm now without pain and happier, back to living again. valerie hill Here is my honest review of life Balance Chiropratic in Poole. I had been suffering for months with chronic lower back pain and a tingling sensation on my forearm, which I had been to my own Doctor several times before , they said it was a trapped nerve in my elbow, but there was no treatment other than keeping it straight!. So when I saw an introductory offer on Facebook for a spinal health check I decided to make an appointment, because I thought there must be something causing this terrible pain in my back where after sitting down, I could hardly stand up and move without terrible pain. My appointment was with Dr Olivia so, on the 3rd Oct 2024, when I arrived at the clinic the two receptionist were so lovely and friendly I immediately I felt at ease, I was called in to see Olivia, who is also so lovely, (you just immediately feel relaxed) she asked me a few questions and examined my neck and Spine, I had an xray there and then, which I was grateful for at least I would be able to see for myself if there was anything causing me this pain. I was told to come back the next day for my results and to take someone with me if possible, so my husband came with me and so glad he did, Olivia showed me what my spine should look like, then showed me my xray, we were shocked it was in a terrible state and no wonder I was in so much pain. If I had left it any longer I would of needed an operation. I am so thankful that Olivia said that with adjustments it should improve, but it was going to be quite a long process, not an overnight fix . Well so far I have had 10 adjustments and 2 deep tissue massages and I already can feel the difference, I can get up from sitting with no pain at all, I sleep better, my whole life has improved, I can walk 10,000 steps again In a day ( not every day yet lol but i am getting there) the tingling on my forearm has almost gone, my jaw that has clicked for the last 41 years is cured, I have no headaches now! I didn't realise your spine, controls so many other vital parts of your body. I still have a way to go but I know I'm now going In the right direction, thanks to Dr Oliva at life balance Poole. Please don't suffer in silence and get to the stage where your thinking I have to just put up with it, and your quality of life is affected like I did, just make that appointment with Dr Olivia at Life Balance poole. By Valerie Corbin x Mandy Everett Have been visiting this Chiropractor for a few weeks now and I cant fault them. All the staff from the front desk to the Chiropractors are absolutely lovely. All welcoming and friendly, they take the time to get to know you as a person and you are treated as an individual. From the initial consultation through to now, I have had clear, consistent contact and communication. Everything was explained perfectly and in detail, checking regularly that I had complete understanding of everything discussed and being planned. They are flexible and accommodating and I love that if needs be, you can be seen by any of the other chiropractors, and they know exactly what your journey has been and what you're there for! Would highly, highly recommend this practice to anyone considering going to a Chiropractor!

FAQ

What training do Life Balance chiropractors have?

How is Life Balance Chiropractic different from other therapies?
The uniqueness of Life Balance Chiropractic starts with the belief that, in some way, everything is connected to everything else. Many therapies only have a goal of working only on what hurts and that specific area.
We start by looking at the global picture of how your body is ordered, aligned, and balanced, how your body moves, how its curve relationships and state, and how one issue can lead to problems elsewhere. This helps us look strategically and systematically at identifying the root cause of any pain, dysfunction, or areas of stress holding you back from performance improvements. From this point, we work with world-class specific chiropractic adjustments and corrective exercise plans to create lasting change so you feel better for longer.
We work with you through our proven process. Learn more.
