The Clinic
The history...
BDC Health first opened in 2018 on The Downs as Bowdon Downs Clinic.
We​ continue to be as passionate as when we first opened about improving spinal health and wellbeing of the wider Altrincham area.
​
We have always worked on the principle that everyone deserves high quality, affordable care that is bespoke to each individual's needs.
Chiropractors
Our chiropractors are devoted to helping you achieve your goals and improving your quality of life through chiropractic care and advice on your health and lifestyle.​
​
Chiropractic is a profession that focusses on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders.
​
We are primary care practitioners specialising in nerve, muscle and joint problems. As chiropractors we train full-time for four to five years for a Masters of Chiropractic degree which involves extensive training in anatomy, physiology and biomechanics, with particular emphasis on the musculoskeletal system and nervous system.
​
As part of our training we learn medical diagnosis, radiography and radiology, which means we can diagnose your condition and use safe, gentle techniques that are suitable for your body or refer you to another healthcare professional if necessary
Massage Therapy
&
Lymphatic Drainage
Our massage therapists are experts in soft tissue therapy to reduce muscle tension and provide stress relief through a range of different massage techniques.​
​
Massage is a manual skill that relies on the skill of the therapist to apply pressure to your body to increase blood flow and influence the nervous system.
Some of the benefits of this therapy include: relief of muscle stiffness, increased range of motion and relaxation.
​
​​​Techniques that we provide include sports massage, deep tissue therapy relaxation massage, pregnancy massage and lymphatic drainage.
​
Hadiya also performs manual lymphatic drainage. This is a very gentle technique that encourages the movement of the body's lymph fluid. This helps to reduce areas of swelling and fluid build up and can help reduce pain, bruising and inflamation.

Pregnancy Care
During the wonders of pregnancy your body will go through a great number of changes in a remarkably short period of time.
​
