James Power

Owner & Principal Chiropractor  

I’ve worked in high-performance sporting environments, including international events such as the Tour de France, the Commonwealth Games, and UCI races across the globe.
‍
That experience has shaped how I assess, reason, and work with the human body — particularly under physical stress, load, and performance demands. It also informs how I support people outside elite sport, where the goal is often the same: moving well, staying resilient, and remaining active over time.
‍
From an early age, I’ve been fascinated by human anatomy, movement, and sport, and how the body adapts to different physical demands. This curiosity led me into chiropractic care, where I now work with people across a wide range of activity levels — from those who exercise recreationally to professional athletes.
‍
As a keen marathon runner myself, I understand the cumulative demands of training, recovery, and movement over time. Alongside my clinic work, I’ve supported athletes from sports including cycling, golf, tennis, CrossFit, boxing, and endurance running, as well as individuals who simply want to move more comfortably in everyday life.
‍
With over 17 years of clinical experience, I continue to develop my knowledge and skills through ongoing postgraduate education. This includes training in contemporary chiropractic techniques and expanding my understanding of how physical stresses — whether from desk-based work, repetitive activity, or competitive sport — can affect the body.
‍
My clinical approach is centred on thorough assessment and clinical reasoning. Rather than applying a standardised treatment plan, I take the time to understand each individual’s presentation, goals, and lifestyle. Following examination, we discuss appropriate care options together. Where suitable, this may include manual therapy, movement-based approaches, and practical guidance designed to support long-term function and confidence in movement.
‍
More recently, I travelled to the United States to undertake advanced training in Functional Range Assessment (FRA) and Functional Range Conditioning (FRC). These systems are widely used within professional sport to explore joint movement capacity and control as part of a broader clinical assessment.
‍
Today, I work with a wide range of musculoskeletal presentations, including sports-related injuries, movement limitations, and persistent discomfort. My aim is to help people recover, build resilience, and feel confident in their bodies — whether that’s returning to sport, improving performance, or simply moving through daily life with greater ease.
