Meet Seona — Your Chiropractor
Seona Gunn-Kelly DC, MChiro, BAHons
Chiropractor & Applied Kinesiologist
Seona has 17 years of experience as a chiropractor, and before that trained as a sports scientist, personal trainer and massage therapist — that's 30 years of working with the human body.
As a hypermobile person herself, Seona found fast "clicking" adjustments actually made her joints sore. So she learned gentle treatment protocols instead, which help your body and brain find their own balance.
Her treatments find the weak areas of your body, restore healthy strength, and let your body do what it does best — heal itself.
Experienced Chiropractor
Seona has found the best results come from a whole-body approach — taking into account your injury history, current health, emotional stresses and nutrition when planning your treatment.
Advanced Treatment
Seona's skills are rooted in Applied Kinesiology, Myofascial Release, Nutrition, Bach's Flower Remedies and gentle Injury Recall Technique — plus a special love of helping children and young people.
Treatment Results
Most clients are up to 80% better after 2-4 treatments, and around 100% better after 4-6. Your body needs time to heal between sessions, so we usually suggest a short course. No guarantees — but 9 times out of 10, clients feel significantly better!
What My Clients Say
Hamilton Scanlon
Client
I've suffered from lower back pain for decades, and exhausted most other treatments for relief with mixed results and was still seeking the right treatment regime for me. Seona's style and methodology has done the job that others have failed to do. Her "head to toe" holistic examination, diagnosis and soft touch treatment has worked wonders. But make no mistake, her soft touch has a powerful effect. She helps you to take control of your healing process and through her treatment gives you the confidence to move forward. I have recommended her to family and friends and yes, wished I found her years ago 5*
Sandra Starling
Client
I went to see Seona after being diagnosed with Arthritis in both shoulders from my GP. I was suffering intense pain in both shoulders and back and was finding everyday tasks difficult. After just 6 sessions the pain has almost disappeared and I feel great. Seona explains everything she does and her technique is gentle but so effective. She is easy to talk to and just great at what she does, so glad I found her. Thank you Seona! 5*
Carrie Polwarth
Client
After suffering with lower back pain for a year it was recommended I see a chiropractor. I found Seona online, her friendly nature put me at ease straight away and she was able to fix my problem in just 3 sessions. I have recommended her to friends and family. Thank you Seona! 5*
Jason Day
Client
I visited St Ives Wellness Clinic after a recommendation by a friend, initially to seek help for pain in my hip. After my initial assessment my hip issue was linked to a long term back problem that I had. After every session with Seona I felt improvement, either in pain level, mobility, or general posture. During each treatment the procedures were clearly explained, and after considerable improvement I now choose to visit every two months as a maintenance programme. I only wish I had visited the clinic years earlier. 5*
Sue from Stamford
Client
I decided to see Seona after listening to a friend describe her experience at the Wellness Centre and the subsequent benefits of her treatment. Previously I had seen an Osteopath for an ongoing sacroiliac joint problem with varying degrees of success. Seona's treatment was different, not so dramatic, no clicking but very effective with an all over feeling of free and easy movement after the first session. Seona instills confidence in her friendly and knowledgeable manner and I am happy to travel quite a distance to see her for further appointments. 5*
