SHIELD CLINIC: passionate about getting you out of pain
Serving Newcastle since 2009, we have helped over 3900 people with their back pain, sciatica and headaches
Why Is Our Way of Treating Spinal Pain Different?
DISCOVER HOW OUR WELLNESS CARE CAN PINPOINT THE TRUE CAUSE OF YOUR PAIN ALLOWING US TO TRULY MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR LIFE AND NOT JUST MASK THE SYMPTOMS.
Here’s the thing, in our experience, the reason why a lot of clinics FAIL and you don’t get the results you want is that they are simply concentrating on the pain without ever trying to identify the CAUSE of your problems
And that’s what makes us different. We pride ourselves as having one of the most advanced back pain testing poicedures anywhere in the North East. We have invested Tend of Thousands of pounds on equipment and technology that very few people around the country have access to – this helps us find problems that many have failed to find in the past.
Something that may surprise you
Pain isn’t always where you think it is. A ton of pains that you have sought help for and had very limited results could be caused by referred pain. As an example, lots of people complain of a ‘pain in the bum’ but it could actually be coming from your spine via a tissue known as the sciatic nerve. Our analysis and testing procedures allow us to see this, and more, so we don’t waste your time, money and patience by working on the wrong thing.
By using this technology, we can pick up things often missed by the human eye, which means we try to leave no stone unturned in figuring out the best solution to your problem.
We give you the tools you need to get your health back & live a pain free life
“THE DIFFERENCE IN EVERY ASPECT IS REMARKABLE. … I’M A TOTALLY DIFFERENT PERSON. I CAN’T THANK HIM (JOHN) ENOUGH, OR THE LOVELY RECEPTIONISTS, WHO MAKE YOU FEEL WELCOME AND RELAXED FROM THE INITIAL ASSESSMENT.”

✔️ We know how important your health is, so we always take an in depth consultation, in person, so we know exactly what we are dealing with.
✔️ Being one of the busiest clinics in the North east for nearly 20 years, we probably have seen it all!

“Absolutely fantastic! Can’t recommend Shield enough they have helped me so much! I feel like I have a new back and I am stronger than ever. I was in so much pain and they managed to get me mobile and stronger so I was able to enjoy my holiday in Disney even though I still needed back surgery. Post back surgery I have recovered so quickly and my back is stronger thanks to all the work Ryan and John have done. The whole team are lovely and I feel welcomed and look after from the minute I walk in the door Highly recommended 😁”
How we work
Consultation
This is where we sit down and first discuss your past history, we want to find out the causes of your problem, and if there isn’t a direct cause – the stuff you may be doing on a daily basis that may be contributing to your pain
Examination

Listen to what some of our previous patients have kindly said about us
Does what you do work for everyone?
In truth, we can’t help everyone who walks through our doors. However we have a 86% success rate in helping patients.
We keep thorough records and find within a few short months of care most people feel a minimum of 60% better compared to when they first walked in.
To give that some perspective, spinal fusion surgery has been found to be only 24% successful, so we think we are doing pretty good for getting an 86% success rate!
Does it hurt getting treatment
Yes it can hurt, but solutions are available that cause no discomfort too.
We would be lying if we said to you that everything we do never causes discomfort, however the techniques we employ cause the minimal amount of trauma (compared to a thai massage, we are very gentle) and helps your body to recover quicker as a result.
Most of our patients will comment on how gentle, but how powerful the treatment is. The most common things we hear from peoples first treatment is how much lighter, looser and more upright they feel!
