Fantastic experience: I had severe back pain for two weeks (9/10 pain). After today’s session, it’s already down to 4/10 and I can walk properly again. Amazing experience and very professional. Thank you Caleb, see you next week!

Fantastic experience: Rang Papanui Chiro for an urgent appointment as I was travelling through on my Motorcycle as I put my back out on the trip. Caleb got me in straightaway and was very thorough and started my realignment with a full body adjustment. Perfect!!! Returned the next day for a follow up adjustment and got me feeling 90%. Caleb finished by adjustment process with a machine massage to settle everything down. I recommend Caleb as a caring and thorough Chiro to book in to see. Thx

Fantastic experience: I managed to get a last minute appointment with Caleb and I am so glad I was able to. He listened to my issue (lower back pain), and discussed what he would suggest as a course of treatment. He talked me through each part of the treatment session and explained what and why he was doing each thing. My back felt better right away and with a follow up appointment later in the week, it should be all sorted. All of this as well as being very reasonably priced and accommodating, I would recommend Caleb to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Caleb was amazing - very caring and understanding, listens carefully and did an incredible job. Out of several chiropractors over the years, he's one of the best I've been to. Highly recommended

Catheryn Riwaka Published on Google

Fantastic experience: What an absolutely ridiculously amazing experience. Have never been to a chiropractor before so had no idea what to expect and a little scared that It would not help and I would come out more sore than before I went in. Caleb is incredible at what he does, very skilled, so knowledgeable, professional and his expertise is top notch. I am walking out feeling amazing and already looking forward to another session. Thanks so much

Fantastic experience: Caleb has helped treat numerous sporting injuries over the past 4 years and I highly recommend him. He's very professional, knowledgeable and in my experience has always delivered immediate results. Plus he's a very friendly and personable guy. I have recommended him to a couple of friends, who now having had treatments themselves, also agree he's great.

Fantastic experience: Hi highly recommend Caleb! I came in with a minor spine injury and due to the work he did, I am well into the healing process only after a week of seeing him, with also having much more movement than I have had for years! I couldn't be happier. I recommended my father to him. Personable / bespoke service.

Fantastic experience: Caleb has been a lifesaver to both myself and my partner throughout this year with regular visits for both of us. After a long time in pain I plucked up the courage to visit Caleb (I was petrified of chiropractors!) And it is the best thing I ever did. His customer service is top notch, he is professional and he really cares about good outcomes for his clients. Highly recommend Caleb to anyone in a heartbeat!

Adam Goulding Published on Google

Stranger Things Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Thank you Caleb, you’re absolutely AMAZING!! The best chiropractor I’ve ever seen. I have multiple spine issues and I’ve tried many places in Christchurch but always end up disappointed, some places over charged and some just didn’t do the real work. I’m so pleased that I found Caleb, he made the enrollment easy, everything is well managed and the best thing is that I walked out of the clinic felt so relieved. Highly highly recommend!!❤️

aman preet Published on Google

Negative experience: Treatment of body is good but POOR customer service.Today i was booked in for my back pain treatment. I was soo in pain not for back but for other reason and want to use the toilet but he haven’t allowed me because of his policies. Even person is in pain policies are more important.Related to his treatment is good but that’s other thing ,customer service is first especially when someone is in pain . There is note mentioned in the Shop on the table “only knock the door when emergency “ after reading the note i knocked the door and he came and said sorry when i asked to use the toilet. I am still confused which emergency he is talking about.In services section he mention toilets (not for use). Really disappointing.

UPDATE!!!
I have had a nice new toilet installed in the clinic that is wheelchair friendly and accessible to anyone at the clinic. I hope this resolves this issue.
Thank you for your feedback.

Lyn Wild Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I have been treated by Caleb for back and neck pain and can thoroughly recommend his treatment methods. Have been to a few Chiro s in my time and an osteopath and Caleb suits me very well. Very professional but also very friendly and approachable which is important to me. You are not there for 10mins and out again. He gives a good 25mins treatment. With easy parking at the door .Caleb knows his stuff., anyone unsure if a chiropractor is right for them, give Caleb a chance to help you, I am sure you won't be disappointed .

Fantastic experience: I can recommend everyone to go here! This guy know what he's doing. I came with a painful back and he knew immediately what was wrong and fixed it. Okay, after that I had more pain, but it got less the next morning and was able to stand straight again. I could do some physical work and just continued moving as he adviced. Next day the pain was way less. The day after that it was only a little bit stiff and now it is gone!
