Taunton Health: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I can’t rate James highly enough. Picked up a few injuries over the years resulting in both spine and neck pain. After getting pins and needles in my fingers. Went to Taunton Health for help. Clinic is very nice and comfy. James is very professional, friendly ,very knowledgeable and quickly puts you at ease. After a comprehensive scan of my neck and back, which flagged up lots of red areas of concern. A plan was put into place and after 6 twice weekly visits, I can honestly say the results are amazing. Pain free, no pins and needles & a massive improvement in my neck and back flexibility. Very very happy and highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I had been suffering with headaches for a few months and just taking pain killers.. After a few sessions with James my headaches were gone, and I've been headache free since (6months +). No more pain killers. Well worth the visit.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant videos. Easy to follow and clearly explained.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you are benefiting so much.
Fantastic experience: James has clearly defined instructions that work. I recommend his tutorials to optimise your movement and restrict pain!
Fantastic experience: Videos are easy to follow, particularly with James' pleasant communication style. I'm yet to draw a conclusion on the effect of the exercise I am doing, but it seems to be taking me in the right direction.
Fantastic experience: I have watched James videos for foot pain and back pain and to be fair, they work really well, I should just do them more often as he suggests. He seems to really know his stuff.
Thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: Excellent videos. Super processional and knowledgeable instructor.
Thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: James’ videos are incredibly easy to follow and really focus on my problem areas (in my case sciatica). His stretches and strengthening exercises are not too hard for an older person and I watch them every day in the gym. It is a bit of a slow road but he says you have to keep up the work over a considerable period, which is very honest!
Fantastic experience: Excellent. Very clear and really helpful
Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: I really appreciate the wisdom and support that James offers. He comes across clearly, warmly and his suggestions are always practical and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Though I’ve never met James the Osteo, he’s helped me immensely. His videos seem to be especially for me and my family. The advice/recommendations actually help. The stretches are perfectly described and well demonstrated. James, thanks for your care.
Fantastic experience: Very grateful of the tips and most of all how amazingly effective your stretches are. You are amazing James ✨ cheers, Shez Coach
Fantastic experience: From the moment you step through the door you relax, with lovely receptionists and very calming music to welcome you. I appreciate the late opening hours, it’s really easy to pop in for an adjustment after work rather than taking up time during your day. James is really good, I always feel better when I leave. He is very thorough, in a calm and quiet way which is great. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Taunton health! I've been suffering with neck pain for a while now and im amazed at the progress in just 4 weeks!
Fantastic experience: Had lower back trouble for years. Been a regular customer now for about 4 years, have adjustments every 4 weeks and now have little to no issues with my back. Also on a side note, can’t remember the last time I had a head ache either which was an added bonus of having regular treatments. Many thanks James!!
Negative experience: Not the best place in town. The staff is kind and diagnosis meeting is good but the treatment is too simple, dissapointing. Unlike some other places which looking at combining availaible treatment for neck pain options, Taunton Health only offers short appointment (10-15 min) where they twist and twick stuff around. I found this not bringing relevant results in time I needed. Not for me but may be for someone more patient with simpler issue.
Hello Ewcia. You only ever made it to your results appointment and not to your first treatment so it is unfair for you to comment on our appointments. What you have written just isn't accurate and doesn't represent how we work.
Fantastic experience: James is brilliant. I would highly recommend anyone to visit Taunton Health. I have been visiting him for several years now. My headaches have all but disappeared and my whole spine feels freer and more comfortable
Fantastic experience: Together James’ treatment and exercise programmes have helped me overcome long term pain suffered over many years. Highly professional and efficient and a pleasure to recommend.
Thank you so much for the review Liz. We’re very pleased you are feeling so much better.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Taunton Health! I had suffered with severe back pain and wasn't able to to do many activities at work pain free, but James has helped me to get better with it I cant believe the difference I have with my back ache. James is absolutely brilliant in his work!! Also staff at Taunton health is absolutely helpful and cooperative..
Fantastic experience: Great service and left me feeling and moving back to my best again.
Thank you so much for the review.
Fantastic experience: I have been to many chiropractors for sever back pain, james osteopath at taunton health is amazing
Thank you so much for the kind review. We are pleased you’re doing so well with us.
Fantastic experience: After suffering with headaches for over 20 years James has helped me overcome them.
Thank you so much for the kind review Elizabeth. We are pleased you are feeling so much better!
Fantastic experience: A very welcoming environment with your needs met.
Thank you so much for the review!
Fantastic experience: I started seeing James White over a year ago for back and neck pain and now I have to say I’m not having any problems like I was experiencing a year ago now. I now only have to see James monthly to keep on top of the treatment. Highly recommend Taunton health.
Thank you so much for the great review.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Taunton Health! I had suffered with back pain for years, but James has put an end to that for me. He has re- mobilised my spine and i cant believe the difference to my life! James is clearly brilliant at what he does!!

Hi Helen,
Thank you so much for the great review.
See you at your next appointment!
Fantastic experience: Taunton Health staff are very friendly and helpful, both with telephone enquiries and in person. James is very thorough with treatment and advice, should you have any questions regarding treatment or any other concerns about the mechanics of body/ movement. I've had a very good experience with Taunton Health and I have/ would continue to recommend this service to anybody that asks me.
Thank you so much for the great review Nicola!
Fantastic experience: Have been treated by James for a few months now and he has improved my back immensely. Very quick and to the point in his technique. I recommend him to anyone who has a chronic problem with their back / posture
Fantastic experience: The service and help I received have been fantastic. I am now pain free and drop in every so often for a maintenance treatment which keeps me feeling at my best. Thank you the whole team for all the help so far.
Fantastic experience: After a car accident my neck had never been the same. Headaches and restricted movement were the main issues. Now I am feeling better than I did before the accident and I am also sleeping a lot better which is a bonus!
Fantastic experience: My sicky/migraine headaches, which I had been suffering from every morning when I woke up, began to subside within days of beginning treatment. They have now vanished completely.
Fantastic experience: I had years of low back pain. I could not stand or sit for long periods without bending over or reaching upwards for support. After working through the problem and a thorough treatment plan we managed to get me back to my old self again. Thank you so much! Highly recommended! Tim Smith.
Negative experience: There are always two people in any sector of a profession. The professional and the cowboy. Unfortunately, at Taunton Health I was treated by a cowboy. Paid upfront for around 20 sessions that lasted no more than 10 minutes. Repeated the same neck twist and back crunch each time with no conclusion to the treatment or result. I lost all faith and gave up the treatment. Thankfully, I have plucked up the courage after nearly 2 years since visiting Taunton Health, to be treated by a professional elsewhere. This is something I should have received in the first place. He is a con artist and is making his rounds from town to town.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely astounded by the improvements I have had from one visit. I had very uncomfortable/painful back issues for a long time and should have had a consultation a long time ago. Participating in weight training as a hobby weekly, the issues have plagued me in the gym and at work and now I have minimal pain, way better mobility and strength from one adjustment. Extremely professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely return if get any future issues, feel like I have my hobby back. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the kind review. Great to hear you're doing so well.
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Taunton Health, James is amazing at getting you sorted! James really knows what he is doing and after my very first treatment I could tell a huge difference, I've suffered with my back for 11 years and over that time it's just got worse, I wasn't sure how any one could help me feel better, but my first and second treatment has made such a difference to me and my day to day activities. I can't wait for my next treatment. Thank you so much James
Fantastic experience: Went to see James around 13 weeks ago. I was suffering with constant headache and stiff back. Now after 13 sessions I am headache free and moving freely. Money well spent. I used to be a topical male grime and bear it . But James pointed out that by re alining my neck and spine would releive the tension in my neck and back.
Hi Ian. Good to hear you're doing so well. Thank you for the review.
Fantastic experience: Great service, approachable and supportive
Thank you for the kind review Jane.
Fantastic experience: James has helped me improve my quality of life and how to improve and maintain it. Very informative and knowledgeable as well as friendly and professional. I would recommend him to everyone!
Fantastic experience: James at Taunton Health has really helped me with my health. I’ve been able to loose some weight as a result of his advice and support which has been excellent.
Fantastic experience: I've been working with James for the last few weeks and it's been brilliant. My aim was to improve fitness and wellbeing and with James' help and guidance I feel I have achieved that. His knowledge and expertise has made so much difference to my journey and I have learnt so much from him, and his kindness and support has ment the process has been enjoyable and I've achieved more than I thought possible. I look forward to continuing with his help.
Fantastic experience: Great service. Highly recommended.
Thank you Caroline.
Fantastic experience: James is brilliant. So knowledgeable and has really helped me. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind review Gemma.
Fantastic experience: When I first visited James at Taunton Health, I had been suffering with intermittent bursts of intense lower back pain (the result of a pretty stupid weight room injury) for over 5 years. James explained why I had been having the issues that I was having in recovery, and was very quickly able to identify the key stress points in my spine. He also added to my knowledge of the Central Nervous System and the effect it has on our wellbeing, strength and energy output, which was awesome! What started out in my head as a "quick fix" for a long-standing lower back pain issue has now become an integral part of the way I look after my body and my health. I can't thank James enough for the work he has done with me so far and would definitely recommend his service.
Fantastic experience: A very professional establishment which has actually worked for me where others have failed, would highly recommend to anyone with aches & pains!
Thank you so much for the kind review. Great to hear you're doing so well.
Fantastic experience: Had my first session today and my neck already feels better, I have a long term back problem and am looking forward to the next sessions if the improvement to my neck is anything to go by
Fantastic experience: Professional, friendly and perhaps best of all my headache are now a rarity not a common occurrence!
Thank you so much for the kind review. Great to hear you're doing so well.
Fantastic experience: I first came to James with an ongoing injury and struggled to find the cause. After having a few months of treatment the injury has completely gone and my posture and wellbeing has massively improved. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I attended Taunton Health in the hope that my problem with headaches could be helped. After talking with James, and with him demonstrating with a model spine, it made a lot of sense that I could be helped. After several consultations with James, I am delighted to report a significant improvement in my headache problem and I am quietly confident, that with further visits and advice my problem will be improved even further. Many thanks, Taunton Health, for all your help to date.
Thank you so much for the kind review.
Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service and very informative James talks you through everything and is getting to the route of the problem not just treating the symptoms. Would definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Within days of starting my treatments the sicky/migraine headaches I had been experiencing daily on waking had eased and now, hard to believe, but true seem to have ceased altogether. James is now working lower down my spine to relieve the severe pain that I have across one shoulder and towards my hip. This has reduced considerably, so far. Thank you
Thank you for the review Gill!
Fantastic experience: After suffering for years with migraines James was recommended to me so I went along. I haven't looked back, I have had to take 1 migraine tablet in 6 weeks where I was taking them every few days with not much relief. I see James regularly and have definitely noticed a difference in not only my headaches but also my general posture and well being. I would recommend James without a second thought. There is no need to suffer when Taunton Health are available to help.
Fantastic experience: James is an excellent osteopath. He really takes the time to explain the causes of pain and my back pain has pretty much gone now. The treatments have really helped my posture and stopped my headaches. I can’t remember the last time my back felt so consistently good. There are payment plans available that make the treatments extremely competitively priced compared to other osteopaths. Jess the receptionist is very helpful and makes you feel really welcome. Brilliant all round service!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Taunton Health. Although apprehensive initially in trying treatment by an Osteopath I should not have worried. Treatment has been pain free and very effective, I have been very happy with my progress. James and Jess are friendly and professional and James is very knowledgable and reassuring. He agreed a treatment plan with me and evaluation is ongoing. Do not hesitate to book an assessment with Taunton Health.
It’s great to hear you are doing so well Sandra. Thank you for the review.
Fantastic experience: James is amazing, after suffering bad back pain for over 2 years and being told I will be on pain killers for the rest of my life!!! At 40 that scared me and I resigned myself to a life of pain and pills! That was until my husband sent me to James, he has worked his magic and given me my life back, I can now see a future without the need of pain killers and that’s only after a few sessions!!!! I would definitely recommend to anyone, family and friends. Thank you James, you really are amazing
Fantastic experience: Helped me with my back and neck, the amount I can move without stiffness or pain has increased.
Thank you for the review Jonathan.
Fantastic experience: I was impressed the moment I stepped through the door: very welcoming without being too familiar, very professional and very knowledgeable. I've been to many Osteopaths and Chiropractic clinics over the years and Taunton Health is absolutely as good as they get. One of the very best. Thank you. (No relation, despite the name!)
Fantastic experience: At my initial consultation James explained the root causes of my longstanding back and neck problems and what we need to do nail them once and for all. He didn't sugar coat it!! The pricing structure for treatment is clear and transparent and James and Jess have been flexible to ensure my appointments fit around my complicated working hours. So far so good! I'll be back with updates as my treatment progresses in the coming weeks months....
Fantastic experience: Went with back pain and was blown away by the quality service and treatment I got. Not only now pain free but also back playing football which I never thought I would be able to do again.
Thank you for the review Alex.
Fantastic experience: Very professional. I would recommend the care Taunton Health give.
Thank you so much for the review.
Fantastic experience: James has helped me both physically and mentally. I went to Taunton Health desperate for help having tried loads of different techniques and remedies at home for my Plantar Fasciitis; all which were unsuccessful. I use to be in constant pain and couldn't walk in the mornings. I am finally on the road to recovery and have learnt so much about taking care of my body and as an added bonus James has also been able to help with my headaches and back pain that due to my Plantar Fasciitis were being ignored. It is always calm, friendly and welcoming as you walk into Taunton Health and it has been nice to put some 'me' time back into my life.
Fantastic experience: I am currently undergoing treatment at Taunton Health Clinic after seeing James on Facebook. He is very knowledgable and professional,- I went in with pain in my foot and after an initial assessment and treatment I started seeing rapid improvements. James also help me with my headache, that I was suffering from and we are working on the issue with my neck and posture on why I am getting these headache. This is having big impact on bring down my stress level and boosting my wellbeing , James and his staff team are all very Welcoming and supportive
Thank you for the review!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic knowledge and understanding of the pain you are experiencing. Since attending Taunton Health my pain has been reduced by over half. Would highly recommend Taunton Health.
Thank you so much for the review.
Fantastic experience: The Team at Taunton health is absolutely fantastic, I personally recommend and strongly encourage anyone with back or neck pains or posture problems to give them a call!
Thank you very much for the review. We are so glad you are doing better.
Fantastic experience: I came across Taunton Health when I was in need of some emergency treatment for my lower back. I was able to get a same day appointment for an initial consultation with James. After the assessment a treatment plan was devised and I am pleased to say that from initial twice weekly appointments to adjust the subluxation in my spine, I am now, 6 weeks later, down to once a month appointments – the goal always being to get me back to better (stronger) than before. Thanks James and team.
Fantastic experience: I went to see James as I had been experiencing pain in my big toe for some time which was getting slowly worse. James was able to explain why I had lost mobility in the joint and began a program of massage and stretching which lead to very rapid improvements and now I am walking without pain which is fantastic. James and his staff are very friendly and I thoroughly recommend Taunton Health.
Fantastic experience: So happy I came across Taunton Health recently, James is really knowledgeable and passionate about helping people. I'm confident that he will be able to help me with my neck and lower back alignments, and also with other aspects of my health and overall wellbeing.
Fantastic experience: I visited James as I was suffering a lot from tennis and golfer's elbow. He was brilliant. He explained exactly what was going on, gave me a prognosis and put me onto a suitable plan. He worked into the afflicted area as well as doing some neck manipulation and a bit of acupuncture. He also gave me exercises to do and explained the reasoning behind it all. I got both relief and steady improvement and can now look forward to a pain free future. Thank you James.
Fantastic experience: Warm friendly staff very helpful & knowledgeable, James works wonders on my back,neck and shoulder problems.
Fantastic experience: Years of neck and back pain finally going away after seeing James. He's given a professional friendly service and I would happily recommend him to anyone with back or neck pain.
Fantastic experience: Dr. James took care of me while traveling to the U.K. He took his time, was extremely profession and got me back on my feet again. Thank you Dr. James
