Casterbridge Chiropractic

Fantastic experience: I was recommended Quentin by a friend and I'm very glad I listened. Id been struggling with pain in my back, legs, shoulder and neck and after seeing him three times the difference was incredible to the point I went on a road trip and experienced one day of slight back pain. Before, I'd have been on agony with lots of aches and pains do long distance driving. I would definitely recommend, as someone who was very skeptical before, I wish I'd gone sooner!

Fantastic experience: I have been to Casterbridge a number of times and found all the staff very friendly and professional. The care I’ve received has been first class. I would definitely recommend them.

Fantastic experience: I’m very impressed with the progress in recovery that Liam has enabled over the last few weeks. To have moved from constant pain to returning functional movement is a great relief. I am hopeful now of a full recovery and return to my sports.

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much for sorting me out prior to my London marathon attempt. You’ve made the difference between me succeeding or pulling out. Great service, thorough explanation and reassurance. I’ve come away with the confidence to continue running and some self help tips to manage at home. I would definitely recommend Liam as a highly professional and approachable practitioner.

Fantastic experience: JP was fantastic as were the team at Casterbridge. I attended for a neck pain that had persisted for months without getting any better. I had around five sessions after the problem was thoroughly explained to me. I am now pain free. This was my first visit to a chiropractor and I will definitely be returning in the future. Thoroughly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Very helpful pleasant staff who quickly sorted out problems. I saw Liam who has been so good in reducing pain issues. I would certainly recommend this clinic

Fantastic experience: A gem of a find. This chiropractor service is so unlike any other i have been to. From a very warm welcoming reception from Kathy to the wonderful Liam whom has helped me immensely. I have had very old injuries and literally terrified of chiropractor work, etc. Well no more. Completely made at home, every part of my treatment was explained to me even though some terms were "greek" to me the diagrams I understood. Getting old is not for sissies and often one will feel isolated looking for help, explanations, well if you are suffering, don't. Pick up the phone and get into see Liam. Feel reassured, feel renewed, feel better, full stop! Thank you Liam, thank you Kathy.

Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Quentin since Autumn 2025. He is a very caring individual who takes time to listen to you and ensure you receive the best treatments. He has guided me, even through not knowing the cause of my pain, and advised me on many different areas such as medication, appropriate scans to ask from the NHS and better self care. The receptionists are welcoming and always cheerful - ready to make you feel welcome and comfortable. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Really pleased with all aspects of the service. A friendly welcome & fantastic treatment.

Fantastic experience: During the sessions that I have had at Casterbridge Chiropractic to date, I have always felt the team to be incredibly friendly, helpful and professional, and I would thoroughly recommend them for those needing chiropractic assistance.

Fantastic experience: Following long term pain in my neck and hip/groin, I finally gave in and made an appointment to see Quentin. I had always poo pooed chiropractic treatment, thinking it was all a bit ‘woo woo’! Needless to say Quentin put his heat seeking thumbs to work any I am no longer in pain. I went from weekly appointments to monthly and now only visit for 3 monthly maintenance appointments. I don’t know why I waited so long to become virtually pain free. I would fully recommend this chiropractic clinic for all musculoskeletal ailments. Thank you Quentin for all your help and to the reception staff who always make me feel welcome.

Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Quentin for probably 20 years now. As a person who loves to keep active I have found his treatment and advice in times of potential crisis and for routine maintenance to be spot on. Can’t recommend him and the Casterbridge team highly enough

Fantastic experience: I have been so impressed with the service that I have received here. I have tried numerous osteopaths, chiropractors and reflexologists over the years and nothing has ever helped me. Liam is absolutely fantastic and I have never felt better! Over and above that the receptionists are so lovely ... they always take time to talk to you while you are waiting and are genuinely friendly. I cannot recommend the practice highly enough. I have already made referrals to my friends and family and will certainly continue to do so.

Fantastic experience: I have had shoulder pain on and off for years but it got worse over Christmas. I contacted Casterbridge chiropractors and was given an appointment very quickly. I have been treated by J. P. and can honestly say that he has worked wonders. His advise and professionalism has been much appreciated and all with an added sense of humour. The pain has gone from my shoulder, but I will go back for check ups as necessary. I would recommend anyone to go to Casterbridge Chiropractors and I thank J. P. for his healing expertise.

Fantastic experience: After experiencing lower back pain from exercising, I made an appointment to see Kate, she was instantly able to tell what was causing the pain, what we needed to do to make it better and work towards not having the issue going forward, every visit was full of knowledge and relief, 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Kate for a while now, I attended regularly due to manual work and my back has suffered over the years, I find it very helpful and Kate really knows what she is doing.

Fantastic experience: Great experience. JP was superb: both in the physical treatment and also explaining clearly what the issues and risks are so I can build resilience to mitigate recurrence. He’s got my back! So glad I went (via personal recommendation) and highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: I moved to the Casterbridge Clinic after my Chiropractor retired. I did have my doubts after the service I had previously received but after a few sessions now at the Casterbridge practice I am totally happy with the the treatment they are providing for me.

Fantastic experience: Extremely professional and friendly staff. The booking system is great.

Fantastic experience: Very happy with the progress and professional manner I have been treated.Managed to fit me in last minute which was a god send.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing chiropractors!! I’ve had 6 months of undiagnosed unstoppable pain and discomfort in my left shoulder. With in 4 visits to JP at casterbridge the relief is up by 60% . I can’t thank him and all the friendly team for their hospitality and support especially JP . He knows what he’s doing I can tell you that now ! Brilliant!! So don’t hesitate book in!!

Fantastic experience: Have been seeing Kate at Casterbridge for past 6 months for a back issue that was really becoming a problem for me. She made a thorough assessment and treatment plan which has been a very positive experience for me. The improvent is really noticeable and as such helped improve quality of life. Thank you so much Kate.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been treated by JP at Casterbridge for the past year after suffering with a painful back injury. From the first appointment he’s been great, he was able to quickly diagnose my issue and created a treatment and exercise plan to assist my recovery, I wholeheartedly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: The team at Casterbridge,are plesent welcoming and professional, after being with my previous chiropractor for 10yrs or so ,going somewhere else after she retired was quite nerving, kate who treats me at Casterbridge is very upbeat and she soon sorts my ailments,

Fantastic experience: Liam has been such a great help with my back and hip pain. I have a 3 year old daughter and the lifting had been causing pain in my lower back. After the first session there was such a difference! All the staff there are wonderful. Thank you so much.

Fantastic experience: Could not recommend this place enough! Everyone who works here is so lovely and so welcoming always a pleasure to see them, feeling better each time I go and the at home exercises are getting easier. Thank you Casterbridge Chiropractor

Fantastic experience: I went to Casterbridge Chiropractic after having years of lower back/hip issues and more recently sciatica. I chose Quentin because he treated my mum 25+ years ago so knew he had plenty of experience. The assessment form and first appointment were thorough and now, four treatments down the road, I feel confident that my pain will be reduced. The practice itself has a good feel about it and I am always welcomed well.

Fantastic experience: Excellent place to have Chiropractic treatment done, so friendly and a really friendly atmosphere. Personally speaking Kate is amazing at no point do you feel just like another person that she's treating

Fantastic experience: These guys are just amazing. Everyone is very kind and friendly. A big shout out to JP he has worked wonders with my back and is continuing to do so. Highly recommend wouldn’t go anywhere else. :) Thank you JP

Fantastic experience: I started attending Casterbridge Chiropractic in March as my previous Chiropractic in Weymouth retired. I am very pleased with my treatment having started monthly then 6 weeks I am now going to 2 months. Kate has been excellent and would certainly recommend her.

Fantastic experience: Having lower back pain I decided that a visit to a chiropractor might be a good idea. Casterbridge Chiropractic is just a few steps from my home so it was the obvious choice. A 10 minute conversation with Kate established that it was right for me and I then started a course of treatment with her. I soon started to feel some relief and continue to see improvement with each visit. From the first experience of walking through the door I have found everyone from receptionists to Kate herself friendly and relatable. Kate immediately inspired confidence and her friendly, approachable manner makes each visit a totally stress-free occasion. I'm grateful to have found such a good solution to my problem and especially so close at hand.

Fantastic experience: Kate is phenomenal at her job. After injuring my back and hip, I was left unable to weight bear or even move and lift my leg, after just a few sessions, guidance, and hard work, I have been able to start putting pressure back on leg. Kate explains everything thoroughly, in a way that is easy to understand and she is just so lovely. Everyone I have met is very welcoming and puts you at ease.

Fantastic experience: They are always friendly and very professional

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant clinic, Reception staff 1st class. I have been going there for a while now,liam 10/10 he is spot on with his treatment.

Fantastic experience: I’ve only had experience with Liam and the wonderful reception staff but every time I have been in, they have been friendly and fantastic at squeezing an appointment in when needed most. Fantastic service and truly have done wonders with my ongoing neck injury. Very glad I have found them and highly recommend! I use them as does my wife and her family as they have used many others but always received the best service here!

Fantastic experience: My experience at Casterbridge Chiropractors with Mr Quentin Standish-Hays and all of his team, has been very professional welcoming and polite. The treatment l have received has helped me extremely. I would recommend them to anybody who requires help.

Fantastic experience: I can wholeheartedly recommend Quentin @ Casterbridge Chiropractic - whatever is wrong with me I have absolute confidence that he can put me right and get rid of the pain.

Fantastic experience: Surpassed all expectations.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant service. The staff are very friendly, and the clinic is clean and well-organised. I started seeing very good results after only a few sessions with Quentin. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I came in with very uncomfortable sciatica pain. Just after 3 sessions and very helpful advice (exercises to do morning and evening) it has settled down and is no where near as painful as it was. I have never been to a chiropractor before but I would highly recommend Casterbrige Chiropractors. They are a very friendly and professional team.

Fantastic experience: Everyone at this practice is super friendly and welcoming, which always makes a big difference. Kate has been a huge help -- she's knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and really takes the time to understand what's going on. I've felt a lot better since starting treatment. I would highly recommend this practice!

Fantastic experience: Good, friendly service. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and welcoming staff, promp appointment times and good results following treatment from Quentin. Would highly recommend. Chris Palmer.

Fantastic experience: Excellent seen promptly great facilities and Quentin is fantastic and incredibly knowledgeable and helpful dealing with my problems

Fantastic experience: Had terrible headache and pain in the eye for 2 weeks. After 2 visits, feeling so much better. Kate was attentive, friendly and knows what she is doing. I loved how she listened to my problems and trying her best to treat my problems yet making me so comfortable. Thank you Kate X Everyone, Kate is not like the chiropractors I have seen before. Previous chiropractors I have seen were waste of time and money. 10-15min touching here and there without making any improvement on my pain and charged over £50. I also went to Rafal for massage. Had some cuppings done too and he taught me some little exercises I can do to help mobilise my hips a bit more to help with the pain. Good pressure, good pain and I slept like baby afterwards. Shout out to the reception ladies who have been brilliant too. Always smiling even when they are busy with phone calls and customers. Thank you everyone! -from tired NHS worker

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Friendly staff. Brilliant service.

Fantastic experience: My whole family drives all the way from Southampton just to see Liam! Great chiropractor and made a real difference to my neck and shoulders (after years of falling off horses)

Fantastic experience: I had been using my favourite chiropractor for what seems like forever. Recently I moved to Bridport and have tried to find a new chiropractor that I could gel within the area. The search is over! I have being seeing Laim now for a while and he is great. He has all things I liked about my original chiropractor with a few added extras. He explains what he is doing and why, he isn’t ruled by the clock but by doing whatever needs doing! I highly recommend him and the Casterbridge team!

Fantastic experience: Id highly recommend this chiropractor practice to anyone. Reception staff are very welcoming and friendly, and make you feel at ease before you go in. Kate is an amazing practitioner who is extremely friendly and makes you feel at ease throughout an appointment, talking you through it and explaining things well! Ive seen great, positive improvements since my first appointment. Again, highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Have had hip issues excellent advise, receptionist very pleasant, would highly recommend them

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Kate and Quentin regularly for a few weeks, both are very good at what they do and things are improving! The reception staff are very kind and helpful and make me feel welcomed. Would strongly recommend. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Always received fantastic treatment from the clinic

Fantastic experience: I have had bad back problems for a few years now, which was much worse in the last few months. Since I have been to Casterbridge Chiropractic my pain has been turned around and it has practically gone after the problem being identified. I have had four sessions so far, progress was mixed with the first three but has vastly improved after the fourth session. I would highly recommend this practice, it was passed on to me via word of mouth.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending a chiropractor for approximately 50 years with the majority at Casterbridge Chiropractic. They are very professional with the caring touch and I now attend every 6 weeks for my 'servicing' and without this I would not be able to do the things that I can. I can thoroughly recommend them.

Fantastic experience: This is my 2nd visit in 12 years. The service is great and friendly, all treatments explained why/when, how your concern may affect other parts of the body. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have been experiencing discomfort in my lower back following an injury sustained while playing football. This resulted in sleep disturbances and limited mobility. Quentin accurately identified the root cause of the issue and provided a clear explanation of the problem. He promptly initiated my treatment and prescribed a set of exercises for me to perform at home. As a result, my back condition has significantly improved, allowing me to resume playing sports without any discomfort. I should have sought treatment sooner. The clinic provides a welcoming and professional environment, ensuring that patients feel at ease from the moment they enter.

Fantastic experience: Very thorough

Fantastic experience: Good service and treatments, making good progress on dealing with long standing issues in my back

Fantastic experience: Liam has been treating me every Friday for the past 3 weeks, for a knee injury I have been paying the price for for the last 11 years. I have seen 3 different people over the 11 years, but unfortunately have had no success in recovering as it’s progressively got worse over the past decade. By the 3rd session I am running like I’m 17 again (no exaggeration) with the exercises and treatment Liam has given me, I can actually feel and do things I should be able to do at my age. Can’t recommend Liam enough, as well as the Clinic itself, everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful!

Fantastic experience: I had an issue with the top of my back, I called it the washing up /ironing back. It got to the point that I could not walk for long without a piercing pain right across the top half of my back that I just wanted to sit down and crunch my back over, it would take ages to go away. After my mum visited Casterbridge for the same reason I decided to go. Liam has done an excellent job in fixing me, I can stand walk and wash up without pain for longer periods of time. He has also taken time to help with some issues I have had following lung surgery. He explains things to me, shows me how it all works, he makes me feel at ease, is kind and friendly and nothing is too much for him. I am so glad I made the decision to go and cannot express how grateful I am for the work Liam has put into making life so much better and easing all my aches and pains.

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Quentin at the practice for a number of sessions for a back issue. Not only has he greatly improved the condition, he and the rest of the staff are fantastic. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic staff! Friendly and very knowledgeable which put me at ease as I never had been to a chiropractor before, but since going to Kate I've never felt better. Strongly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Kate was recommended to me because of headaches, she immediately found a potential issue, explained it clearly to me and has really helped. A good clear plan and I had definite improvements from the start. Fantastic team and they are very accommodating (I often have to take my 4 year old and everyone is great with him). Booking system and online portal also really easy!

Fantastic experience: I have seen Kate 4 times so far, her work has had a great result in my recovery. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable, explained the cause of the problem I am experiencing, and how the treatment and exercises are designed to work on this problem.

Fantastic experience: I have been receiving treatment from Quentin for 5 sessions over the past 2 months. I had a foot issue that has almost cleared. What a relief this is. Whist I have been seeing him I feel I have had a full body MOT. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is in pain and suffering. He is extremely knowledge, professional, experienced. He makes you feel at ease and comfortable. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Kate has done wonders for my ankle! I am so pleased to have found this clinic which is welcoming and professional with a superb range of treatments.

Fantastic experience: I had a real sense of care from the moment I walked into Casterbridge Practice. The welcome and greeting from Rachel on reception was just what I needed. I went into the session with all the usual aches and pains you get with being 6 months pregnant. The session was done flawlessly by Liam and I have to admit I have gone away from my treatment feeling great. I have a new raised awareness that the sessions should be kept going as I feel so much better and want to maintain this. I look forwards to coming back soon!

Fantastic experience: Liam has been helping me with ongoing back, shoulder and sometimes hip pain and I find the sessions and information very helpful in pain relief. A very professional business and everyone is so kind and helpful. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: I have been seen by Kate for the last year or so for my sciatica. The difference is amazing & I don’t suffer with it anymore. I’ve also had treatment for a shoulder problem which is now easing. The staff are all so friendly. Would thoroughly recommend this practice although have already friends & relatives who are now attend.

Fantastic experience: Liam's excellent treatment and advice has helped enormously in significantly reducing pain and discomfort. I have always found him to be most professional and understanding during the sessions. All the staff at Casterbridge are very friendly, helpful and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have had excellent treatment from Liam. We are feeling much better. We fully recommend the practice.

Fantastic experience: I have been to Quentin for a year now, when I first came I had trouble walking without pain in my hip and back, it was getting me so down, Quentin is so exceptionally skilled , very thorough and takes his time to get things just right for you, now I walk perfectly fine and without any pain at all, can’t thank him enough!! :) I won’t go anywhere else for chiropractic treatments again.

Fantastic experience: Highly professional service. Helpful and friendly receptionist and excellent treatment.

Fantastic experience: This practice is second to none. Real results quickly. I would highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been using the practise periodically for 20 years and now go regularly for chiropractic care. I get almost instant relief after a treatment and always learn something new about how the body works in the process. Quentin has helped me with things that I wouldn’t have traditionally defined as chiropractic issues just by helping me understand the body better. I highly value my visits and feel very well cared for when I go. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the practise.

Fantastic experience: I couldn't recommend Liam enough! Struggling for most of my life with hip and back pain Liam was able to help with my discomfort within two sessions. Now I'm able to go months between sessions pain free. Thank you so much.

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to Casterbridge chiropractic clinic for over a year now. The service is amazing and reception staff are friendly and very helpful. I have Hypermobility spectrum disorder and Liam has the knowledge and expertise to make my care personal centred. He explains what treatment is needed for each muscle group and nerves that feed that area. I am 100% happy with all the treatments I have received and taken knowledge home with me.

Fantastic experience: Liam is great. I first required his help about 3 years ago during Covid when my left knee and lower back 'suddenly' locked up. I was basically a cripple; and unable to work. At that time Liam was elsewhere; and over the course of a few weeks he relieved the condition completely. Time passed and I moved, and so did Liam changing to this current locale which is now a 45m drive away. My condition came back & I stupidly thought any 'other' Chiro would do. I WAS WRONG. After wasting time [weeks] and money with another 'closer' Chiro; I decided the drive was worth it. In that first session back with Liam, my condition improved markedly; and I now regularly see him for a 'fix up'. I cannot speak highly enough of Liam's Chiropractic abilities. Thank you, Liam.

Fantastic experience: Fabulous massage with Raf. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Really good massage techniques and listened to me to understand what I do for a living and my sports. Thoroughly recommend!

Fantastic experience: This is the second chiropractor I have seen and I wouldn't bother going elsewhere now as this "surgery" is excellent. Everyone is very efficient and friendly. The waiting room, toilets, changing area, and clinics are incredibly clean. It is very well run. I came with terrible sciatica and Quentin helped me immediately. I was in agony and now a week later I am fine – not cured, but a million times better. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Casterbridge has a very good reputation locally and treats some of my neighbours. There is good availability of appointments, including Saturday, and you are made to feel very welcome. The core service is chiropractic but the practicioners often combine this with physiotherapy, massage and exercise suggestions. If need be you can have an instant x-ray. They take time to hear you and speak to you. Well done!

Fantastic experience: Having worked only two doors away from Casterbridge Chiro for years, my first visit was this week due to a hiking injury on Sunday. I hobbled in on Monday morning and Rachel, who is simply delightful, kindly took me in for a chat with Quentin who then booked me in for an appointment later that day. I have now had two appointments with Quentin and am almost good as new! He has been absolutely wonderful and is very knowledgeable, I am booked in for another session next week and fully intend to keep it up, he is a miracle worker! I also enlisted the services of Rafel who worked his magic on my poor legs and has given me excellent advice on stretches and strength training to avoid further injuries. They are a fantastic bunch, and I cannot praise them enough. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Noticed today that they have the best organised loo in Dorchester. Since Covid , standards seem to have slipped elsewhere . Not here . The whole set up ....practitioners , masseur , receptionists are first rate ..

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and first class treatment ,many back problems over the years and the team have always put me straight i am now on a preventive scheme and that helps greatly

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing kate for two years. I visit infrequently now to maintain my back. Always chatty and makes me feel at ease. Explains treatments well and i feel much better. Always a warm welcome from angie in reception and she knows my name. Highly recommend casterbridge chiropractic!

Fantastic experience: Liam is brilliant in what he does, he has really helped me with my back problems. He is so professional, friendly and great. Would defiantly recommend to anyone

Fantastic experience: Excellent friendly service, Liam is very professional he listens, reassures you he can help and puts you at ease. He explains in detail what is going to happen. I trusted him completely. My back pain greatly improved very quickly and I felt more positive and confident in myself.

Fantastic experience: Always had courteous and efficient service which keeps my lower back and neck problems under control. Easy to make appointments at a time which suits me. Have been able to discuss and receive advice on conditions outside my usual longstanding issues.

Fantastic experience: Quentin has helped me so much over the last few years with my many health problems, I highly recommend Casterbridge Chiropractic,

Fantastic experience: I arrived pretty nervous meeting Quentin as i have come a long way with my disability but i knew i needed a experienced and kind person to help me to manage the changes in my spine.I soon relaxed and felt in safe hands i had an x-ray and can now understand my problems clearly. I left feeling positive and hopeful that there are things we can both do to help me slow things down. It was a very honest and in depth assessment in a friendly,clean and safe environment.I returned a week later and had some treatment that didnt hurt and i have felt less pain and had better walking and riding since i am very pleased with the help i have been given and the less pain relife i need highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Kate at Casterbridge has treated my shoulder problems for some months. I am extremely satisfied with her diagnosis and treatment. Casterbridge was a recommendation from several friends and I’m glad I took their advice. Nice people in pleasant and comfortable reception and treatment room.

Fantastic experience: I suffered persistant back pain for years. Started seeing Liam 2 years ago and for the past 18 months have been virtually pain free with just 3 monthly maintenance visits now needed. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Good quality chiropractic and a friendly team

Fantastic experience: The staff are very friendly and helpful. I have received excellent treatment and everything was explained to me. After only 3 sessions with Liam i can honestly say I am pain free which Is amazing

Fantastic experience: Fantastic treatment from Liam. Really eased my back from immense crippling pain. Can't thank you enough.

Fantastic experience: Very pleased with my treatment

Fantastic experience: Fab practice with friendly people, excellent skills (which is most important) and always a positive result, which is more than one can expect from other disciplines...and it's right behind Waitrose - what more could we want?

Fantastic experience: A great place , fab premises . I will be highly recommending Liam and this clinic to all my friends .. a wonder experience .

Fantastic experience: Kate is amazing, has helped me through sciatica and back and chest problems.. extremely Highly recommended. Completely professional establishment and the receptionists are all lovely too.
