Tom Cairns, MChiro, is a highly valued member of the clinical team at Gloucester Chiropractors, bringing over two years of dedicated service and continuous clinical refinement to our practice. Known for his comprehensive approach and exceptional results, Tom is committed to providing patient-centrered chiropractic care that goes beyond simply alleviating symptoms.

Clinical Approach: Diagnostic Accuracy and Holistic Treatment

 

What sets Tom apart is his meticulous and holistic approach to patient care. He believes that effective treatment begins with diagnostic accuracy. Tom takes the time to thoroughly understand each patient’s history, lifestyle, and underlying pathology to create a truly individualised treatment and rehabilitation plan.

Instead of focusing solely on the area of pain, Tom assesses the body as an interconnected system. This detailed, functional assessment allows him to:

  • Identify Root Causes: Pinpoint the underlying mechanical, postural, or muscular imbalances driving the patient’s discomfort.

  • Apply Advanced Manual Techniques: Utilise a broad range of evidence-based treatments, including specific spinal manipulation, soft tissue therapy, and advanced rehabilitation exercises, to restore optimal function.

  • Empower Patients: Provide clear, actionable advice on posture, exercise, and lifestyle modifications, giving patients the tools they need to manage their long-term musculoskeletal health.

This focus on tailored, long-term well-being is why Tom has built such a reputation for achieving positive, lasting outcomes for his patients in Gloucester and the surrounding areas.
