Chiropractor in Richmond Reviews

I have had such an excellent experience of Healing Hands, and have had support from my GP and orthopaedic consultant. The chiropractors offer the highest standard of care and professionalism. The receptionists, the website, the Facebook posts are all so helpful and useful. Thank you Dr Sanvir for your understanding, your explanations which made total sense to me and to my doctors, and for the improvements you brought about. On chatting with the receptionists, I heard of numerous life-changing improvements in patients’ lives. I felt very encouraged to hear this and justified in paying the very reasonable fees.

I have tried various practitioners for bad back (reviewed here), and this place is THE worst experience I’ve had. They use the American sales model of selling you a “package”. This is done by spending 30-40 minutes with you in the first 2 appointments, where you have scans and an X-ray done and the idea is that they solve the underlying problem. Sounds great, so far. In the 2nd session, you are given a sales pitch about how it would cost £4,000 at Harley Street but if you book 36 sessions here then you only pay like £1,500 etc. I signed up for 12 sessions for £480 (plus the cost of the first two sessions which was around £150 I believe). I realise now that the first 2 sessions are just a marketing and sales opportunity. However, each of the following 12 “sessions” is literally 3 minutes long. Not joking. 3 minutes is all you get. (Funny how none of the other 230+ 5-star positive reviews never mention this.) And, you don’t even get the privacy of being seen in a room – you are seen in an open space which has 3 physio beds/benches/tables laid out side by side and there are always other people on the other tables. At times, my chiro, Chintan, even moved across to the other table and did a little manoeuvre on the person waiting there before returning to me etc. There is a general sense of urgency and you have no time to ask questions or express concerns. Your specific problem is not addressed – in fact, I can tell you right now the 5 moves that Chintan will do on you if you go and see him. And that’s all he will do whether any progress is being made or not. Indeed, you are just a faceless cash cow who is there to be milked, in a conveyer belt operation. This whole promise of “12 sessions” was a blatant mis-selling and marketing scam. The “treatment” could be fitted into 3-4 proper 30-minute sessions, saving the patient not just money, but an enormous amount of time. After my 12 “sessions” I felt no better at all – the chiro knew there was no progress being made, but since I had already paid up in advance, I was stuck, and I don’t think he was too bothered. Looking back, he must have realised early on that my pain is muscular and not skeletal, and rather than telling me that he wasn’t qualified to fix me, he just went through the motions. It’s like an electrician charging me again and again to fix a leaking tap, pretending that he knows what to do, rather than telling me to get a plumber. Then at the end, there is meant to be a follow up session to see the new scans and what improvements have been made. Well, the looking at the scans took literally 30 seconds and it’s done so fast that it’s of no value. My pain was still there. As much as before I started this whole saga. Chintan even had the cheek to ask me if I wanted to sign up for another 12 sessions. The whole experience has left me feeling cheated, taken advantage of, and jaded. Not only did I waste over £600, but I wasted dozens of hours in travelling/attending meaningless and ineffective sessions; and I endured 2 months of pain because whilst I was a client here, I couldn’t get treatment elsewhere. The ONLY good thing about this money-making-scheme, sorry, I meant “clinic”, is that the ladies at the reception are very polite and helpful. A day after I stopped coming here, I went to see a physio who diagnosed me on the first session with a trapped nerve near the gluteus minimus and started treatment right away, reducing my pain the same day. My advice if you have a bad back – stay away from this place.

I was recommended to the clinic by my friend and I'm glad I went! I've been suffering with lower back pain for many years and after my consult with Dr Sanvir it was evident that he was highly knowledgeable and explained things clearly. The rec team are very welcoming and always accommodating with bookings. Over the past 4 months I've notice an improvement in my back and overall wellbeing as I'm now able to do a lot more. Do yourself a favour and visit Healing Hands to see how a professional chiropractic clinic is run. Highly recommend.

I really like how Healing Hands have approached my problem (my neck, spine and nerves). They did lots of tests (x-rays, nerve scans etc) to gather the evidence and find the cause. Now they are doing a great job at fixing it. A couple times a week I go in for a few minutes. In only a matter of weeks I'm already feeling better. They're also a friendly bunch.

I can't say enough good things about Sanvir at Healing Hands Richmond. I've been struggling with serve pain and spasms, since fracturing my neck 12 years ago. I had tried everything with little to no avail, I genuinely thought my only remaining option would be surgery! But after just 8 treatments, I'm experiencing a huge reduction in pain and unbelievable improvement in my mobility - I've even managed to drop one of the prescription pain medications altogether! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and cared for by the professional and caring reception staff. Sanvir is incredibly knowledgeable and after a full examination, x-rays and tests he explained everything clearly in 'basic' terms so I was able to fully understand. I highly recommend Healing Hands to anyone looking for a chiropractor - especially if you (like I did) feel although you have 'tried everything'!

I came to Healing Hands Chiropractic in Richmond after a family friends recommendation. I was suffering with leg and foot pain for several years, when I visted Dr Sanvir he analysed my entire body using advanced technology whilst explaining the process thoroughly and providing in depth but simple to understand information on the human skeleton specifically the spine. The treatment I have had has made an immense difference from erasing pain, changing my posture, more flexibility and overall feeling more light and free in my body. I am extremely happy and grateful for Healing Hands Chiropractic. The staff are lovely and it has a very calming feel inside. I would recommend Healing Hands Chiropractic in Richmond to anyone!

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Dr. Sanvir and the entire team at Healing Hands for their exceptional care and dedication. For 5-6 years, I suffered from severe stiffness in my lower and middle back, and for almost 4 years, I could barely move my neck to either side due to intense pain. Strong painkillers offered only temporary relief, and I struggled to perform basic movements. Fortunately, a friend recommended Healing Hands to me, and it turned out to be the best decision I could have made. Before starting treatment, I underwent a thorough initial assessment, which helped pinpoint the issues. My chiropractor, Mr. Sanvir, was incredibly skilled and compassionate. I started with three sessions per week, and after three months, my second assessment showed noticeable improvement. I reduced my sessions to two per week, and gradually, my neck pain eased, and my mobility improved significantly. Over the next few months, the progress continued, with fewer sessions required each week. By the end of the year, my final assessment showed remarkable improvement—I could move freely, squat easily, and live with minimal pain. Thanks to Mr. Sanvir’s expertise and the structured approach at Healing Hands, I’ve regained my mobility and quality of life. It’s been a transformative journey, and I’m truly grateful. I highly recommend Healing Hands and Dr. Sanvir to anyone struggling with back or neck pain. Their care and professionalism can truly make a difference.

My wife has just completed a full course of treatment with Sanvir having been suffering from lower back pain for some time. She has found everyone at Healing Hands to be friendly and helpful. The treatment was fully explained before she started, with reference to the results of the scans. At the halfway stage and at the end more scans logged the progress made. She is now standing straighter and moving more easily. The back pain has reduced considerably and she has no hesitation in recommending Healing Hands.

I came with a severe neck pain which terribly effect my day to day life. Dr.Sanvir conduct a detailed assessment and we started having regular sessions with him twice a week. Not only my pain has gone but also my posture improved too. Super professional clinic , I can't thank you enough

I had severe sciatica and back pain last year, and when I went to Healing Hands I was very happy by how thorough they were. They maintained an excellent communication throughout my time there, especially when I had to reschedule due to some personal reasons. Since my treatments my back has felt the best I have been for a long time and I am very grateful. I have since then visited the clinic again after a small injury over Christmas and only with a few sessions I feel I have recovered. A huge thanks to the whole team. I would definitely recommend Healing Hands to anyone who is suffering.

I’ve been coming here since mid-2024, and have been to chiropractors my whole life, from the U.S. to New Zealand to Ealing. This is THE best place I’ve ever been for chiropractic care. It’s the most thorough, explains the process and the point behind it, and the adjustments are genuinely top tier. I go see Dr. Chintan every week, and have felt a huge difference. I can’t recommend Healing Hands more highly, truly.

I had a great experience with this chiropractic team! From the moment I walked in, the entire team really took the time to listen to my concerns and made me feel heard and supported. They were professional, kind, and genuinely cared about my wellbeing. After just a few sessions, my pain has noticeably gone down and I’m feeling so much better. I truly felt like I was in good hands every step of the way. I’ll definitely be coming back again — highly recommend!

I first came to Healing Hands Richmond after working from home during the pandemic left me with poor posture and back pain so bad that I’d wake during the night. After a thorough assessment we identified that another of other issues I’d been having such as jaw clenching were all connected to my back issues. A year on, after regular adjustments, my back pains are a distant memory and my overall posture has improved significantly. I found the half way assessment with new X-rays particularly helpful to compare against the same from when I first started seeing Dr Sanvir to see how I’d been progressing. Thank you Dr Sandvir for all your help!

I’ve been coming to Healing Hands and seeing Dr Sanvir for around 4 years. I have a continuous challenge with the impact of desk and laptop work and visiting the practise has really helped correct and maintain improve posture and reduce pain. The whole team have always been so welcoming and friendly. The assessment process is very thorough, and my adjustments always make an immediate difference - I would highly r Going to the Healing Hands clinic changed my life in the last 5 months!! I have had back pain (due my scoliosis) for more than 15 years and have tried all kind of exercises, massages and even learned how to swim (at 34 !!;)) in order to improve my posture and reduce my daily back pain. Some of the above were helping but still every time I was carrying my shopping grocery or laptop bag I was in pain and could not sleep well and was lacking of concentration, headaches. In March this year, I decided that it was time to give my back the well deserved treatment and relief and started to look online for a Chiropraxter clinic in West London. Lucky me! I found the Healing Hands clinic and booked a first session with Dr. Sanvir. He explained me everything about the work they do in the clinic, the individual Approach they take with clients and went me through all the details of the adjustment process. My back pain improved with every single session, and I am on my third stage now with NO PAIN at all, able to carry my grocery bags, able to Walk more than 20km when I go on hiking weekends and my sleep being much much better. I am very super happy and grateful to Dr.Sanvir and the team for their ongoing support on my journey! I would highly recommend the Healing Hands Clinic to anyone looking to improve their health!

I have been so grateful to find best chiropractor in UK near me. Thorough check up and consultation made me informed and get read of my pain and stiffness. Taking doctors recommendations for homework now I feel good and only keep visiting to maintain for adjustments as my lifestyle involves lot of sitting and stress. Highly recommend if you need help.

Dr. Chintan worked wonders on my life-long disc issues. After going through the prescribed phases, my strength, posture, and flexibility have changed dramatically and I am able to do the things I once thought were impossible with my limitations. Additionally, Dr. Chintan and the whole practice are such a pleasure to work with! They are kind, professional, and even welcomed my dog with open arms to my sessions. Dr. Chintan is an amazing listener and so dedicated to helping you achieve your goals! I recommend Healing Hands to anyone looking for chiropractic care - they are the best!!

I came to Healing Hands with sciatic pain a few months ago. Dr. Chintan put me on a 3-phase treatment programme that not only addressed that but the other imbalances in my body (posture and neck). Not only has the sciatica gone, but my posture and neck have seen some significant improvement! In addition to this, the clinic is warm, friendly and welcoming. Glad I found them!

Amazing practice with some of the best chiropractors in the UK. I would like to thank Dr Sanvir and Healing hands team for their amazing work in assisting me in my time of need. I had been suffering with back pain from months of acid reflux, the pain was so severe I had to significantly restrict my diet. Even medication was not helping. Dr Sanvir used techniques which I have not experienced from any other chiropractor to help reduce the pain and within just a few sessions I felt a huge difference. I am now able to eat the majority of the foods I could not eat before and I have not had any back pain in months. I cannot recommend this practice highly enough.

Excellent practice, lovely location. I signed up for a series of adjustments with Dr Sanvir and the results have been excellent 👌. The initial testing with x-rays/etc. and assessment are the best I've seen. The practice is well run with great staff and a good booking/confirmation service. If you have any back/neck issues or just want to improve your basic health (the neck/spine are absolutely essential to overall health) then I highly recommend signing up for adjustments with Dr Sanvir.

Since starting my treatment with Dr. Sanvir, I couldn’t be more pleased I chose Healing Hands as my experience so far has been nothing but positive. My initial consultation included a far wider set of assessments than any other chiropractic practices I’ve been to, and above all I felt as though my needs were really being listened to so Dr. Sanvir could begin to form a personalised treatment plan. Since then I am on my second month of treatment and the specific exercises and adjustments that have tailored to me, have noticeably helped relieve and improve my initial symptoms so I can now focus on correction and maintenance. There’s no doubt Dr. Sanvir is incredibly knowledgeable, delightfully keen and patient to listen to all my curious questions but also the first to reassure me should I have any concerns. They are also all genuinely lovely people, including the receptionists who welcome you and are super organised to take care of any admin if you need to change any appointments. Can’t fault it really, super excited continue my journey!
