Nick is really friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. He’s built me a progressive plan that fits in with my schedule and is appropriate to my goals. The regular check ins to review progress have kept me motivated and i’m really confident that he takes the time to understand what i’m able to do before setting another exercise. It’s the most consistent I have been with exercise since my teenage years and I am very grateful… plus I’ve not had to go back to Steve!! I’d definitely recommend Active Health if you’re looking for a group of professionals who are genuinely committed to perpetuating positive health in their community and do so with warmth, expertise and care."

Ed "You’ve done such a good job sorting out my sciatica that I’ve almost forgotten the pain I was in earlier on in the year when I hobbled in. I started to feel huge improvements immediately and I’m so grateful to be feeling back to normal." Anton "A fantastic place! I can highly recommend it! When I was pregnant I was experiencing terrible pain in my lower back and hips. Thanks to Steve, the pain was minimised and I enjoyed my pregnancy almost till the very end." Angelika "I went to see Steve today after having pains in my back and legs. Steve did a in depth consultation with me and assessed what could be causing my symptoms. Steve took time to explain his findings and even used a skeleton to explain what was happening with my body, so I could visually see. Steve explained to me the different treatment options to help relieve my pain. I can highly recommend Steve at Active Health and his team. Very professional and friendly environment." Ursha "Flavio is an amazing and very qualified person. I can’t recommend him enough. Also, Ladies at the reception are very friendly and always positive. Thank you so much!" Daria "Fantastic team! I would highly recommend them. I have been seeing Steve for about 5 years and he has treated myself and two of my children. Without him, I'd be in agony! The whole team is friendly, professional and very, very good at what they do. I have recommended them to at least three people and will continue to recommend them." Pippa "Great friendly service! I'm always able to get a appointment at short notice. Steve the Chiropractor has helped me with headaches and back pain for 3 years now. Highly recommended!" Harry "I received a treatment from Steve at Active Health Clinics for a long standing issue with my hamstring. Steve is professional and really cares about his patients. He took the time to properly understand the cause of my issue and work with me to try and resolve it. I came away from the treatment feeling relief from an ache I have been feeling for some time. I also left with a comprehensive set of exercises to try and work towards fixing myself for my next race. I would highly recommend Active Health Clinics if you need a chiropractor. A friendly welcome, a comprehensive consultation and a professional and effective service. Thanks Steve!" Alexandra "Threw my lower back out tidying up after my 2 year old! Reception went the extra mile to get me booked in promptly, felt so much better after my first appointment with Steve, who also recommended stretches to keep the pain at bay! On to strengthening my lower back (body rather) with Stuart now so I don't run the risk of this happening again. I couldn't recommend this place enough, they really take the time to tailor your recovery. To my surprise there's a beauticians upstairs to if you want to squeeze in a quick manicure afterwards! Great excuse to keep in touch with this friendly bunch, thanks for all your help guys!" Davinder "I'd been to another clinic local to me for years but they hadn't ever got to the bottom of what was causing me on-going issues. One session with Dr Steve Mullan and the answers became a lot clearer and after a few sessions, I was feeling as good as new and playing football again pain free. V.impressed and very welcoming team throughout." Chris "I visited for the first time this week to have a massage on my back - I was getting some lower back ache. I was very impressed with the whole process. It was a reasonable price (£30 for 30 mins), I was able to get an appointment the next day and Stuart who gave me the massage was excellent - he was friendly and applied just the right amount of pressure. And it did the job - my back feels at lot better!" Tom "Having hurt my back and had a rubbish experience elsewhere, I was recommended to come and see Steve at Active Health, and my faith in Chiropractic treatment was fully restored. The treatment plan is thorough, tapered to your own clinical requirements, and you are treated like an individual - not a number. I cannot recommend Steve and the team highly enough - from the warm and helpful welcome at Reception, to the clearly explained treatment plan, this is the place to come if you need Chiropractic help. Huge THANK YOU to Steve for sorting my back out!!" Lynva "A fantastic centre run by professional and welcoming staff. I have my back adjusted here, by Steve, every 6-8 month and it makes a huge difference in my professional life but also sport and general wellbeing. All the staff are more than happy to help and make everyone feel at ease and looked after. Can not recommend them enough." Stewart "A chiropractor who is actually willing to spend a decent amount of time with me! After trying numerous different places and 10 minute appointments with zero improvement in my back pain, I went here. Steve and his team were really professional, didn't make me feel rushed and took the trouble to actually listen. As a result I'm virtually pain-free for the first time in about 5 years. Can't recommend highly enough, thank you so much guys!" Ian "I had and still have cervical herniated discs. In my specific case, the severity of this condition was so high that only a surgery would be possible. Thanks to the regular Chiropractic treatments at this clinic, I was able to improve drastically my life quality to a point where a surgery is no longer necessary! I've tried different clinics and definitely this one is, by far, the best ! Thank you very much Active Health Clinic in Maidenhead !!" Pedro "I recently visited Active Health Clinics for the first time, having developed quite a lot of pain with my lower back and left calf muscle while training for a 10k. This was my first treatment with a chiropractor and I was quite anxious not knowing what to expect – I needn’t have worried! Steve was excellent and personable, spending plenty of time on a proper assessment of the problem(s). He somehow managed to sort my back out within a few minutes and nearly all of the pain had gone. He also did a treatment on the calf and showed me some tailored exercises to strengthen my ankle and improve foot positioning. I left the appointment feeling not only physically better but also having something to put into practice at home and at the gym! The clinic itself has a lovely feel to it from the moment you walk in, which helps to put you at ease; I would definitely recommend it to others. Thanks again." Kasia "I have seen lots of chiropractors off and on for years, but Flavio was the only one to actually diagnose and treat the problem rather than just the symptoms (all to do with fascia - very interesting!). Amazing." Alexandra "Fantastic! Dr Steve helped me to sort my back pains and maintain it pain free throughout my pregnancy. I will continue coming back for follow ups to keep my core healthy and in tact." Agne "In my experience, real chiropractic expertise. Flavio has made a huge progress on long term chronic pain issues for me where other practitioners have had little impact. Would highly recommend!" Simon "Initially went to a rival clinic in Maidenhead and was told my problem could take 9 months to a year to fix. Tried Active Health and it was sorted in 8 weeks!, which saved me a lot of money. Would recommend." Sportcookit "I started visiting Steve as I was getting bad back pain, he has since given me exercises and treatment resulting in the pain decreasing majorly since my first appointment. I also see Clare for acupuncture and Kay for homeopathy as I was getting regular head aches and migraines, both of them have worked as a team managing to reduce the amount of migraines and headaches I am getting. All three practitioners have worked together to come up with a plan on how to reduce my pain in a constructive and efficient way which has suited me perfectly making sure I am aware and understand the treatment process leaving me feeling very comfortable with their treatment." Francesca "I was referred to Dr Steve Mullan by my GP many years ago, and I don't think I could recommend him and his team highly enough. He really understands his patients, their lifestyles and works with them to tailor treatments and exercises for them with that in mind. I am normally very cautious when it comes to recommending people to family and friends, especially when it involves medical conditions, however I have recommended Active Health Clinics to a lot of family and friends over the years. All of whom are still patients now. Active Health Clinics care about their patients and it is refreshing to find somewhere that takes the time to get to know their patients and treats them as people and not just numbers. Thank you Steve and team."
