Looking for a Chiropractor in Walsall? Crestacre Chiropractic Clinic is located in Walsall Wood and serves the Walsall, Lichfield, Tamworth, Cannock and Birmingham areas. Chiropractors are experts in the field of spinal health, able to diagnose and treat a variety of conditions ranging from work related back pain and neck pain, headaches, plantar fasciitis and sporting injuries.
Whether you are a busy office worker, a stay-at-home parent, a manual labourer or a keen athlete, chiropractic has something to offer everyone. We can identify the source of your pain and work with you to undo the damage caused by the stresses and strains of life.
At your first visit we will listen to the history of your complaint, do a thorough examination of the area, including a neurological assessment and give you an explanation of what is causing your pain, why it started and what we, and you, can do to get rid of it. If we don't think we can help you, you won't be charged a penny and we can refer you to the appropriate health professional to help you with your complaint.
Chiropractic care is rarely a quick fix. Most people will wait until they have had the pain for weeks, months or even years before finally seeking answers and treatment. By this time, supporting tissues and nearby structures are also affected and the pain may even have started to spread.
Our advice? don't let that niggling pain and stiffness become a constant presence in your life. You don't have to live with it, so why would you?
If you've never seen a chiropractor before and you don't know what to expect, please drop us a message or give us a call and we will be happy to answer any questions you might have. Here at Crestacre Chiropractic Clinic, we use a wide range of techniques including manipulation of the spine and extremities, soft tissue techniques, dry needling, shockwave therapy and we will also prescribe you rehab exercises that are specifically tailored to your needs. Every patient is different and will respond to care differently and at different rates. We will tailor your treatment plan to suit your needs.
look after your spine - you won't be getting another one
Back and neck pain may be acute or chronic and may be associated with postural dysfunction, poor movement patterns or previous injury (such as whiplash associated disorder). Chiropractors can effectively treat pain that is arising from the spine and surrounding structures with a range manual therapy techniques.
Headaches arising from the neck are very common and respond very well to chiropractic treatment. These headaches are usually a symptom of an underlying dysfunction of the head and neck and so releasing the strain on the joints of the neck and the surrounding soft tissues can be a very effective treatment for headaches.
Sport and overuse injuries are very common. Here at Crestacre we treat many soft tissue injuries associated with sport and overuse such as rotator cuff tendinopathy, tennis elbow, calcific tendinitis and plantar fasciitis. We also treat common running injuries such as ITB syndrome, ligament and muscle sprains & strains as well as pain associated with osteoarthritis.
We treat patients of all ages, even babies. The birth process, whether a natural birth or a cesarean, is a traumatic experience for your little one too. Is it really so unbelievable that they might have some neck and back tension after being born?
Have you noticed that your baby cries when they are on their back? maybe they only seem to turn their head to one side? This can be caused by tension in the neck muscles and commonly causes the head to become flatter on one side.
Babies are very flexible. Their tissues are very elastic so they respond to treatment very quickly. Paediatric chiropractic treatment is very gentle, it probably won’t look like we are doing anything at all and most babies are very relaxed during treatment and seem to enjoy it.
Chiropractic care is suitable for people of all ages and is an effective holistic approach to treating musculoskeletal dysfunction, whether it is back pain, headaches, shoulder impingement, tennis elbow or plantar fasciitis.

Shockwave therapy is high intensity acoustic energy that is transmitted into musculoskeletal tissues to promote regeneration and healing processes. Acoustic waves interact with tissues, accelerating tissue repair and cell growth. This can have analgesic effects and restore mobility.

Ultrasound is a completely safe and non-invasive imaging modality with no side-effects. It allows for a dynamic, real-time assessment and interrogation of the area of interest. Ultrasound may also be used to monitor the progress and effectiveness of treatment as it does not use ionising radiation and can be performed multiple times.

Fantastic and professional service. Dr Clarke has helped me overcome injuries that due to my type of work are commonplace. Would highly recommend to anybody who is putting up with pain. You really do not have to.
From the moment I stepped into her office I felt welcome and seen. Genevieve proved to be both knowledgeable and skillful and it’s honestly one of the best chiropractors I’ve been to (I’ve seen a fair few). Great communicator, professional and friendly. I can’t thank her enough for sorting me out!!
I do a lot of Sports and activities outside and Dr. Clarke has treated me every time I get any pain in my legs, arms, neck and back very efficiently. I am able to play sports without pain for at least a month. But even if I get any more pain in my muscles, I can always count on Dr. Clarke to fix my problem.
Genevieve has been treating me for my headaches and I can honestly say there has been a big improvement. I have walked into the clinic with a headache and walked out without one on several occasions. I received a thorough explanation of the cause of my headache and how it could be treated. Im not a fan of having my neck manipulated, but Genevieve has been able to use other methods to treat my headaches. If you suffer with headaches I definitely recommend.
I couldnt recommend Genevieve enough. I am so lucky to have such a fantastic, dedicated and skilled health professional in my area. i have had chronic pelvic pain for over 10 years. I had tried other chiropractors and other treatments such as physiotherapy with limited success. What i like most about Genevieve is her approach. She approaches chiropractic care holistically, focussing on the cause as well as the symptom and she is always open to trying a new approach if something doesn’t appear to be working. Genevieve has used a variety of techniques to treat me including manual adjustment, acupuncture and specifically tailored rehabilitation exercises. Genevieve has also used an ultrasound scan to diagnose a chronic toe problem that has been misdiagnosed for years which is currently being treated with shockwave therapy. She has also treated my newborn who had neck stiffness and could only turn his head one way. Also, when he was starting to crawl he had some hip treatment.
Genevieve has been treating my son since birth. He had problems turning his head which was making feeding difficult. I noticed improvement after only a handful of treatments. I now him once every two or three months for a check up. He loves going and Genevieve is really good with him. The treatment itself is very gentle and not like you would expect if you have ever had chiropractic treatment as an adult. It is also great that I was able to take advantage of the mother and baby package l, which means my son gets free treatment until he is 3 years old.
Dr Clarke has done wonders for my back, truly! I had struggled with my back for years and I have seen a marked difference after treatment here. Genevieve is also someone who sees you as a whole and not just your problem. Thanks again! x
Always had painful long term injuries as a manual trade worker, caused from shoveling, hand digging , laying kerbs, barrowing etc. Physio and massages never seemed to help in the long term, started seeing this chiropractor regularly and my only regret is not doing it sooner. She has been really attentive and has helped me see off injuries which I thought would be lifelong. Will keep going and I highly recommend.
