Gloucester Chiropractors
On this page you can read about the approach we take at Gloucester Chiropractors. You can also read about the chiropractors we have working in our Gloucester clinic.
Our Approach
In healthcare, there are often several different ways of achieving the same result. We’ve taken the time to outline our approach to chiropractic so that you can be sure if it is the right approach for you.
Information is key
We believe that the better you understand your body, the positive health outcomes you will experience.
Our chiropractors will always take the time to listen to you, assess you and to communicate their findings with you. We think that this is so important that we will assess you on every visit. This also helps us understand how your body is responding to treatment and to decide what next steps to take.
We also regularly post on Facebook and Instagram, providing tips, advice and facts about how the body works.
Treatment Tailored to Fit
Perhaps all chiropractors say the same thing, but we would like to really underline that your treatment is tailored to you.
A result of reassessing you at each appointment is that we can see exactly what needs to be done at each given appointment.
We also practice “Diversified” chiropractic. This means that we can pick from a range of different treatment methods to best suit you. More often than not, several methods will be combined on any given appointment.
Because we tailor treatment to fit, we don’t do bulk-buy treatment plans. This is also something that we consider an ethical choice.
Keeping you Doing What you Love
We’ve almost all had the following conversation:
Dr: “What hurts?”
Patient: “X, Y and Z”
Dr: “Stop doing X, Y and Z”
This does not happen at Gloucester Chiropractors.
Our job, and motivation, as chiropractors is to help you keep doing what you enjoy doing.
We will employ all of our expertise to do this.
Prevention is Better Than Cure
It’s so obvious that the phrase has become a cliché. But when it comes to musculoskeletal conditions, prevention really does work.
Prevention strategies vary for each individual but, with a package of homework, lifestyle tweaks and chiropractic check-ups, wear-and-tear, pain and injury can largely be prevented. Or, at the very least, deferred.
Our chiropractors will seek to guide you to finding the most effective prevention strategy for you.
Meet Gloucester Chiropractors
We are a team of three chiropractors.
David Cooper is a chiropractor with 13 years’ experience. He is a founder and partner at Gloucester Chiropractors.
In his career so far, he has established two chiropractic clinics and acquired another. Key to being able to grow chiropractic clinics is to respect the knowledge that other chiropractors have and to build a culture of constantly reviewing and sharing that knowledge.
As a clinician, David has spent a considerable amount of time working with athletes. He also has exceptional results treating patients with sciatica and disc injuries.

Beth Rawlings is also a founder and partner at Gloucester Chiropractors. She has been practicing 11 years and also works with David at our Worcester clinic.
Beth is a mentor to newly graduated chiropractors.
She also has a very high level of training in the field of pregnancy and post-partum care, receiving referrals from all over the West-Country.
Tom Cairns is an associate at Gloucester Chiropractors. He also works at Skelian Chiropractic in Cheltenham.
Tom is, by nature, a very analytical person. This helps him fit in perfectly at Gloucester Chiropractors.
His clinical acumen and interrogative approach has accelerated his clinical development far ahead of many of his peers.
It is fair to say that Tom is still early on in his chiropractic career, but the sky is the limit.
