Portobello Chiropractic: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Having started due to ongoing pain with my hips, lower back, neck and shoulder. The treatments and service I have received have been absolutely first class and I have felt massive improvement in my physical movement. Can't recommend highly enough.
Thank you so much for this review Greg! We love having you in the clinic, and so happy to hear the positive changes you’re noticing from your care with Lorena

Thank you so much for the review David, we really appreciate it! We love having you and all the family in, and so glad you are feeling better, and the experience you’ve had
Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend a better team for this place. Since I’ve been attending not long after it opened,me suffering with Sciatica. Stress and body ache all over,this place has made me so much happier and better thanx to Josh who is fantastic at what he does and is always happy to help and listen and Amber who can fit,change,advise and help with any appointments to fit round work. Childcare. Emergency’s never an issue. Top Team. Well done.
Thank you so much for this review Lynda! We love having you in the practice and so glad we are able to help you feel and move your best with your busy life!
Fantastic experience: After 3 months of treatment my neck and head pain have gone completely. Absolutely delighted the issues have been resolved. Well worth the 3 hour return trip to get there! Plus Amber and Josh are very professional and friendly. 100% recommended.
Thanks so much for the 5 star review Paul! We are so glad you found us and we look forward to all the improvements we are working towards!
Fantastic experience: I have had on and off back and neck pain which all started through poor posture while studying and office work. The pain with any level of exercise would come back and would be so bad it would make movement extremely sore. This year my back and neck pain came back and I don't think I have ever experienced back and neck like this. Working, driving and sleeping has been a nightmare. I moved to Portobello 5 years ago and this year I found Portobello Chiropractic, I went for a screening to see what could be done with the pain I was suffering and went back for my results and a treatment plan. Since starting treatment I my back and neck pain is improved dramatically not only that my posture. I have always been walking slouched over and slouched at my desk now I sit and walk more comfortably with the correct posture and don't feel in so much pain not only that I can walk my dog and not feel in agon, even if my dog pulls on the lead it doesn't seem so sore. The methods Josh uses to adjust my body is fantastic, it's natural working with the body to correct it and though I have a long way to go I'm already feeling the benefits. Hopefully will be back to running soon. Josh takes time to address my concerns about my back and neck pain and the techniques used are really working. When working from home I will do the simple exercises uploaded on the app which is brilliant. I would highly recommend Portobello Chiropractic, Josh and his team are fantastic. They take take time to get to know you and are friendly and welcoming and do a brilliant job. From the minute you book and walk in you are taken care of. If you are suffering with pain go to Portobello Chiropractic you will feel the benefits, this is been best decision I have made improving my body and posture.
Thank you so much for this review Hanna this is so lovely and truly means the world to us to hear about your experience as well as the difference you are feeling in your back and neck already. We love having you, and Rudi in the clinic, and are really looking forward to the progress we continue to make! Thank you so much again
Fantastic experience: I am very grateful for the service provided by Portobello Chiropractic. In a matter of weeks Josh has removed my back pain and provided exercises that will strengthen the weaknesses causing it. The reception service offered by Amber is also very efficient and welcoming.
Thank you so much for your review Duncan! We are so pleased with how you are feeling and that your back pain is no longer causing problems! It’s always a pleasure having you in the practice
Fantastic experience: I have been visiting Josh and Amber over the past couple of months and enjoyed every visit. They are both so friendly and encouraging. I have been seeing Josh with a very squint back due to scoliosis. He gave me a thorough examination and was confident he could help me with lower back pain and leg pain. I have had 7 'adjustments' and can't believe how much better I am feeling. He is a wonderful chiropractor and I am very pleased with the good results so quickly and he is very optimistic he can help me further. I am delighted and so glad I am attending his fabulous practice. Both Josh and Amber are so encouraging and always so positive. I would recommend Portobello Chiropractic without any hesitation.
Thank you so much for your review Hilary, it really means a lot to hear all the positive changes and experience you have had this far. We love having you and Harry in the clinic, and are thrilled with your results so far!
Fantastic experience: Josh might possibly be the most positive person I have ever met. He explains what he is doing and why he is doing it each time, and will always make time to answer my questions, even if I have probably asked it before. In the short time I have been attending, I feel like I have known him and Amber for ages, such as their level of friendliness.
Thank you so much for this review Scott! We are so glad you are enjoying coming to see us— that’s what we are all about! It’s never just an appointment here, it’s a community and we love having you in the clinic!
Fantastic experience: My back used to spasm quite regularly but it would always pass in a couple of days. Last March it went into spasm but after 2 weeks hadn't subsided. I was 3 weeks out from going snowboarding and worried I might need to cancel. I was recommended Josh, but was sceptical of chiropractors but gave it a shot and in 4 weeks I could snowboard without a hint of back pain. I kept up treatments and am now just going for maintenance and have stayed pain free in my back for months, for the first time in years. Would recommend to anyone. It feels expensive to start with but it's an investment in your health and wellbeing that can't have a price put on it.
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Gus and sharing your experience! We are so glad you came to us and so glad the spasms are gone and you can get back to doing everything you want to do
Fantastic experience: i have suffered from back pain for the best part of 30 years and now have developed sciatica. After biting the bullet & through advice from friends & colleagues i decided to go see Josh. The recommendation for Josh came from a good friend and honestly i wish i went to a chiropractor 20-30 years ago. Don’t be put off by these weird & wonderful youtube videos as they put me off going for years. The experience with Josh is absolutely nothing like what you see with zero paid at his sessions. You really need to experience it for yourself but the experience you get when the session is complete is Superb
Thanks so much for the 5 star review Mikey! You put into words exactly what we want our patients to feel! SO glad to hear about your experience! We love having you in the clinic
Fantastic experience: Both Amber and Josh are so lovely and helpful, making regular visits has eliminated my back pain entirely and even improved my sleep! So so amazing and worth a visit if you're in any discomfort/pain.
Thank you so much Gareth for this review! We love having you in the clinic and it’s amazing to hear how your sleep has improved, as well as having the back pain go away! That is what we’re all about!
Fantastic experience: Josh and Amber really welcoming. 100% would recommend to anyone.
Thanks so much Aaron for the 5 star review! We are glad you are enjoying your experience and getting the lower back and shoulders feeling better!
Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Josh for a couple of weeks now. The support I am getting from Josh with my neck, SI joint and upper back makes a significant difference. Still early days, however, pain and discomfort have decreased, the range of movement has improved and so I am having a positive experience and I am pleased! 5 stars for the profesionalism the warmth and the beautiful energy that both Josh and Amber always offer! I reccomend this service for sure!
Thank you so much Violeta! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a google review and we are SO happy to hear the differences already in your neck and back! We love having your energy in the clinic, and look forward to all the changes in 2026
Fantastic experience: Josh is an excellent Chiropractor and has been treating me for a few weeks now. My treatment plan is clear and I'm very pleased with the results so far. He is supported by Amber, who is super efficient at running the admin side of the practice. Would highly recommend
We are so glad to hear that Barbara! We love having you in the clinic, and are so pleased that you are already seeing positive changes! Look forward to catching up in the new year
Fantastic experience: I first came to see Josh back in October and the difference between now and then is quite incredible. I had been suffering from back and neck pain and was struggling to sit at my desk every day. I also play curling and was starting to notice my back pain was impacting my performance. I was relying on heat patches to help me get through competitions and training. I didn't know what to expect initially but Josh has such a calm manner and explains everything he's doing. I'm seeing so much of an improvement that I look forward to my appointments now. The only downside is that I have to carry my dog out of the clinic every time I'm there as she'd much rather stay behind to have treats with Amber!! Thank you Josh and Amber - I can't recommend Portobello Chiropractic highly enough!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Jen! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your story and journey with Portobello Chiropractic and so glad you are enjoying your treatment as well as seeing the benefits! Also, apologies for Mags, I would say it won’t happen again but unfortunately treats are mandatory
Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at Portobello Chiropractic! Josh and Amber are both lovely and made me feel very welcome. The whole process was very informative and explained clearly. After initial treatment, there is lots of follow up care including different plans and a very useful app. I would highly recommend this service
Thank you so much Beca! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us and we are so glad it was a good one! You are always welcome and we hope to see you in the new year
Fantastic experience: Amazing service! Josh and amber are amazing and professional and would recommend them to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Great team and great environment. Im seeing big improvements already! Keep it up!
Thanks so much Craig! We love having you in the clinic and look forward to continuing to help with the lower back and shoulder pain!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at the portobello chiropractic clinic, The office was clean, calm, and welcoming, and the staff Amber was friendly from the moment I arrived. Josh took time to listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the visit. Overall, it was a positive and reassuring experience, and I would recommend this clinic to anyone looking for thoughtful, attentive care.
Thank you so much Fisayo! We love having you in the clinic in and really look forward to working with you in 2026!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful friendly, caring staff. They take the time to get to know you and during procedures ensure you are comfortable and make sure to explain or for you to understand what is going on. Could not highly recommend this team/ place enough!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Kristiana! We love having you in the clinic and the improvements we are making!
Fantastic experience: The guys at Portobello Chiropractic have been absolutely amazing. I came in with shoulder pain that would wake me up in the middle of the night. A couple of month of work later I can do my first push up after 6 months. I very highly recommend!
Yesss Yanis, so happy to hear this! Thanks so much for the review, it is always lovely having you in the clinic! Here’s to more wins in 2026 :)
Fantastic experience: Josh and Amber are so warm and welcoming, I always really enjoy my weekly session. The adjustments are gentle and precise and I feel so tall and relaxed following after a session. I came for general health and aches and pains, however the most notable improvements have been in my digestion! As my body is becoming more regulated, my stomach issues have been getting less and less. I can now eat and live much more comfortably and it’s made such an impact day to day. Thank you Josh and Amber :)
Thanks so much for this review Luke! We really appreciate it, and always a pleasure having you in the clinic! We love to practice what we preach round here, and appreciate all you do for us too!
Fantastic experience: I’ve only been going to Josh for a couple of weeks, so it’s still early days, but I’ve had a really positive experience so far. I was having really bad headaches before starting, and even after a short time I’ve already noticed a decrease in those, which has been great. Josh is friendly, professional, and takes the time to explain everything clearly, which makes the whole process feel reassuring. Amber on reception is absolutely lovely too — always welcoming and helpful, which makes each visit a pleasure. I’m looking forward to continuing my treatment and seeing how things progress over the coming weeks.
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Lauren, we really appreciate it and love having you in the clinic! So glad to hear the headaches are already becoming less frequent, and we can’t wait to keep making that progress with you!
Fantastic experience: Portobello Chiropractic is my go to place for my monthly back and neck maintenance. I’ve been trusting this team with my back since 2023. If I go feeling a little creaky or stiff, I know I’ll leave 10 minutes later, cracked and feeling so much better. Josh and Amber are friendly and professional, they now so much about our bodies and can offer advice as well as treatment and always a warm welcome.
Thanks you so much for your amazing feedback, Jay! We’re so happy to hear about the improvements you’ve noticed in your back and neck pain since working with us.

Thanks so much Max, we are so glad we have helped your back, and look forward to seeing you when you are home!
Fantastic experience: I honestly can’t thank the team at Portobello Chiropractic enough. When I first started coming in, I was dealing with daily discomfort, specifically issues with my hips and constant headaches caused by neck tension. After going through a treatment programme with Josh, I genuinely feel like I have a new lease of life. The pain has lifted, and I feel fantastic. Beyond the treatment, the atmosphere is wonderful—it actually became the highlight of my week heading down to Portobello to see Josh and Amber, I knew I'd leave walking on clouds. They are such a welcoming team. Highly recommended!
Connor!! You’re making us emosh . We are so glad you came to see us, and even more so how much better you’re feeling. We love having you in the clinic and really grateful for this review!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to PC for almost a year now and can confidently say that Josh has, through the power of chiropractic adjustments, helped reduce my chronic headaches to fairly infrequent, when they used to be a weekly occurrence. He explained why having adjustments would help keep the headaches at bay and the rest of the body in a healthy alignment, and as a yoga-loving bendy person- I believe him! Ps. Josh and Amber, (who’s always up for a friendly chat), are top notch lovely humans and their clinic is spotless
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Mori and thank you for the kind words, we absolutely having you in the clinic and so glad the headaches are a lot less frequent!

I honestly bounce out of the clinic. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: The back pain had started to get so bad that even long walks became impossible. After a quick assessment, the sessions started, and now already starting to get more movement and feeling less pain. Confident that with time things will be back to normal. Great team and super friendly.

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Portobello Chiropractic highly enough! From the warm, friendly welcome to the tailored, caring service, every part of the experience has been exceptional. I was quite nervous about my first adjustment as a newcomer, but Josh’s patience, calm manner, and in-depth knowledge immediately put me at ease. My treatment has been a success so far, and I’d wholeheartedly recommend Portobello Chiropractic to anyone considering it!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Lewis, and for your kind words! You smashed your first adjustment

Hey Javier,
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Javier! We have loved having you in the clinic, and so glad your neck and back is feeling a lot better!
Fantastic experience: Portobello Chiropractic has become a welcomed mainstay in our lives for the last 6 months. Much improved sleep and just generally moving better could be seen as a given from a chiropractor but Josh and Amber make our visits a joy… even Benji our pooch loves it thanks to Ambers’ not so secret treat jar
Thank you so much Kelly for the 5 star review! We are so glad you are moving better, sleeping better and everything is functioning at its best! We love having you, Iain (and Benji) in the clinic
Fantastic experience: can’t recommend Portobello Chiropractor highly enough! I’ve had such a positive experience here, and it’s made a huge difference for me. Josh is absolutely brilliant at his job – professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes you feel completely at ease. The treatments have really helped me, and I always leave feeling so much better. If you’re looking for a chiropractor who truly knows what they’re doing and goes above and beyond for their patients, this is the place to go
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Ruggy! We love having you in the practice and so happy to hear all the positive changes you’ve experienced since coming to see us!
Fantastic experience: What a blessing it was that I found portobello chiropractic. The clinic just has a wonderful atmosphere and is dog friendly there are always dog snacks, so our woofers love going there. Josh and Amber just make you feel so welcome and at ease from the minute you walk through the door. Josh is a great chiropractor has a gentle touch and incredibly knowledgeable in the his field, I learnt things about my body and what it needed that has helped me massively to live mindfully, in alignment and pain free. As a bodyworker myself this is absolutely a place I recommend to anyone feeling in pain and out of alignment. Thank you so much for your wonderful work that you do in keeping us all healthy! An essential service. Blessings Ari
Thank you so much Ari! We love having you (and the doggies) in the clinic and are so happy to hear how we have helped you! We can’t wait to support your new clinic space
Fantastic experience: Josh has helped me go from fairly regular migraines and constant back and neck pain to feeling much fitter and aligned. Everything is clearly explained through your care plan and appointments are always flexible. Would recommend to anyone with any niggling pains to check it out.
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Solen! We are so glad to hear that Josh has helped with your migraines and back/neck pain, it’s such a common cause that people come to see us, and hearing about the difference we have made to your day to day life is why we do what we do! Always a pleasure having you in the clinic
Fantastic experience: I started coming to see Josh about 4 years because of some lower back pain, which was affecting my day to day life. After my first session with Josh I felt immediately better and every session following this has helped to reduce any pain/discomfort I had been feeling. Josh is professional, attentive, and focuses on long-term. I highly recommend the practice &Josh he is the best chiropractor around x
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Alanna! Love having you and the family in the clinic, and so glad that any pain you experience is reduced after treatment! Thanks for always coming back to see us, it’s always a pleasure to
Fantastic experience: Having previously attended several chiropractors in the Edinburgh area for a few years I have now been attending portobello chiropractors since January this year and I can highly recommend them for their professionalism and the friendly atmosphere at their practice
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Tatyana! You are a delight to the practice and we are so glad you get the care you need with us!
Fantastic experience: Started seeing Josh around six weeks ago. In that time I’ve felt and seen a massive change in posture and mobility. Now looking forward to the end result
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Sean! We really appreciate it and love having you in the clinic! Looking forward to the further progress
Fantastic experience: I got in touch with Portobello Chiropractic to help my son with a chronic illness condition that he has. From our first appointment we felt really comfortable and Josh reassured us that he would do everything he could to help us. Josh researched my son’s rare health condition and even contacted a fellow chiropractor in America so he could understand more about it. The difference in my son from when he first started receiving treatment to now (we’ve gone from three times a week, reducing every 12 weeks after a comprehensive review to now going twice a month) he feels amazing and his posture is way better. A shout out also to Amber, she is so friendly, nothing is too much trouble and we had to reschedule our appointments a lot. I would absolutely recommend this practice, I’ve given a 5 star review for a 5 star service. Thanks again
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Julie! Having Josh in the clinic has been great, and we are so happy with the improvements this far! We are so glad you found us!
Fantastic experience: Super welcoming and lovely practice, Josh and Amber will make you feel very comfortable right away. Honestly cannot recommend Josh enough,. Came in with a bulged disk after a rugby injury. I was in savage pain with sciatica and all sorts for about 8 months before deciding to come in, couldn't even tie my shoes in the morning. Within the first month I felt massive improvements, both with how my body felt and mental health. It's now been 3(ISH) months and honestly my back feels better than it have ever has. I have more mobility than ever, no pain whatsoever, my posture has improved massively and am confident enough to do anything without the worry of back issues or pain (I'm even back to heavy lifting in the gym!!). Seriously if you have any sort of issue or niggle I would fully trust Josh to sort you out and get you back feeling happy and healthy. It's life changing stuff!!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Joe! We are so glad to hear all the positive changes that you have experienced since starting care. You’re an amazing patient!
Fantastic experience: I went to Josh with back and knee pain and I was very pleased with the progress I made. Both Josh and Amber have been very professional and friendly. I recommend Portobello Chiropractic and I will definitely return in the future when I encounter any other issues.
Thanks so much for the 5 star review Eduard! We love having you in the practice and are so glad to hear about the progress you have made
Fantastic experience: It helps a lot. My back has been getting better since I've been going and now I can barely feel the pain. Josh and Amber are both really nice and they anyways talk to me and ask me how I am and what I've been up to. I recommend Portobello Chiropractic to everybody. Sophie age 10
Thank you so much Sophie!
We love having you in the practice and hearing all the things you get up to at school!
Fantastic experience: I have never had an adjustment before so was a little nervous of the whole concept! I had just arrived back in Edinburgh after a long flight from the US and felt tired, lethargic and stiff necked. Also, as I’m not in my 20s anymore, I have the usual aches and pains. My Daughter works at Portobello Chiropractic and I decided to give it a go. It was amazing! Josh was totally professional, put me at ease straight away. Turns out I have one leg a little shorter than the other! Anyhow, after my adjustment I felt wonderful and my neck felt great. The overall tiredness I felt was much less too! Highly recommended!
Thanks so much for the 5 star review Arlene! We are so glad you felt great after your adjustment and look forward to seeing you again when you’re next in Scotland!
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Portobello Chiropractor for the great service and fantastic results. I first started visiting the practice in March as I had been suffering with pain in my lower back, neck and hip for several years and had poor posture due to sitting hunched at a desk at work. I also wanted to see if sorting my posture would improve my golf swing so that lunch would be on my golf partners rather than me for a change. After an initial consultation with Josh where he listened to my struggles and we chatted through the process we decided on correction then maintenance over several sessions. I felt an improvement after the first two weeks and it’s been getting better ever since. I have started going back to the gym and signed up for a 10k run in a few weeks. More importantly, the golf game is... well, it's still pretty poor, but now I look really good doing it. The swing is so fluid, but I just need get the ball to go in the direction I’m aiming at. ♂️ I look forward to my visits to the practice to see Josh and Amber who are wonderful and always welcoming (even if your covered in sweat after a run ) I’d give you 6 stars if I could. Thanks guys!!
Thank you so much for this amazing review Barry! You’re a great patient and it’s truly a pleasure to have you in the clinic! So glad we have helped you, even covered in sweat!
Fantastic experience: Josh is the best at what he does! Every time I get an adjustment I feel like a brand new person. His adjustments help me feel pain free & move better than I ever have before!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Chloe! We are so glad you are feeling all the benefits from your adjustments and it is lovely having you in the clinic!
Fantastic experience: I don’t think I can describe in words how grateful I am to Josh and Amber for their support. Josh is incredibly thorough and attentive, really took time to listen to my issues and explain in detail the treatment and what I could expect from each session. After months of back pain, headaches and sore body I can finally see an overall improvement, and this is only halfway through the full treatment! Amber is always kind and thoughtful to every patient, even if busy she always finds the time to ask how are you and have a small chat, making the reception a warm and welcoming place. I am so lucky to have found Portobello Chiropractic and I 1000% recommend their services - cracking place!
Thank you so much Serena for this lovely review! We are equally as grateful that you found us! You’re dong great, and we love having you in the clinic!
Fantastic experience: I have used Portobello Chiropractic multiple times this year whenever I have had back or neck stiffness or discomfort. Josh is a fantastic practitioner and has me back to full movement with only a few very satisfying adjustments. Excellent reception service from Amber as well. Thanks both, see you soon.
Thank you so much for the 5 star google review Neil! We really appreciate it, and always look forward to catching up with you!
Fantastic experience: Josh is a one of a kind chiropractor and person. Without a doubt, the best I’ve come across. A 5 star review simply doesn’t do this man justice!
Fantastic experience: I began chiropractic care at Portobello Chiropractic in May, starting with visits twice a week and gradually coming in once a week. I originally sought care because of intense muscle knots and pain in my upper back, shoulders, and neck. Over this time I have visually noticed and feel significant improvements, and my reports show that my posture is steadily improving, my muscle knots and tension are far less intense, and I no longer experience the headaches I used to. There is still work to do, but the progress has been encouraging. Just trust the process and stick to the care plan! The results are worth it. The team create a welcoming environment, so I actually look forward to my visits. Josh is professional, attentive, and truly focused on long-term wellness. He takes the time to explain everything, which helps me understand my progress and feel confident in the process. Amber is always warm and friendly, and she makes scheduling stress-free. She sets such a positive tone the moment you walk in. The treatments have made a real difference in my day-to-day comfort, as well as exercising, and hobbies I was unable to do, and I am grateful for the positive changes so far. I highly recommend the practice. Trust the process and stay consistent! Thank you team!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Caren! You are an amazing patient and we are so proud of the work you have put in! We always look forward to seeing you
Fantastic experience: I started coming to see Josh because of some lower back pain, following an injury in the gym, which was affecting my day to day life. After my first session with Josh I felt immediately better and every session following this has helped to reduce any pain/discomfort I had been feeling. Josh explains everything very well and is great at what he does! Both Amber and Josh are always so friendly and happy to welcome me into clinic. I would highly recommend Portobello Chiropractic!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Mirren! We are so glad to have helped you feel and function at your best and love having you in the practice!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic team, fantastic treatments and a refreshing approach to health care that actually works! We have weekly appointments which have seriously change a very painful chronic condition. Highly recommended, Josh and Amber are unreal. And of course, don't forget to wear your most outrageous socks - their monthly 'sock competition' is just so much fun!
Thanks so much for the 5 star review Carla! We are so glad you have experienced positive changes from your treatment and we LOVE your funky socks and visits
Fantastic experience: We’ve been coming here for over 7 months and we have have to say it’s been brilliant . Came with a problem with my lower back which was solved within a couple of sessions and now we have sessions for general upkeep for our all round spine health. If you have any issues you need to come see Josh …. With Amber holding the fort in reception the dream team delivers everytime.
Thanks so much for the review Matthew! We love having you and Carla in the clinic, and all the funky socks you wear to your appointments!
Fantastic experience: Excellent friendly practice has helped me get movement back well worth the long term plan
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Michael! We are so glad we have got you moving and feeling better! It’s lovely having you in the practice!
Fantastic experience: I've had a great experience - Josh and Amber are lovely to deal with. Josh has done a great job with me and got me feeling much better! I'd highly recommend giving Josh a visit!
Thank you so much Ryan! We are so happy to hear that you are feeling much better, and it is always a pleasure having you in the clinic!
Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Josh and Amber at the chiropractic clinic for about a month now, primarily for neck pain and posture issues. Josh takes the time to explain everything during the sessions, which I really appreciate. Amber creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes each visit pleasant. I'm already seeing positive changes in my neck pain and posture, and I'm looking forward to continuing my progress with them. I would definitely recommend their services!
Thanks so much for the 5 star review Lea! It is great having you in the clinic and we are so glad you are already seeing the changes and feeling better! We look forward to continuing with your progress too
Fantastic experience: My mum has had three chiropractic adjustments treatment to neck and lower back and the pain is dissapearing. Josh really does perform miracles to be pain free. We highly recommend josh as he is an expert in understanding joints and nerves and provides an excellent assessment and treatment
Thank you so much for sharing the positive experience your mum is having with us! We are so glad she is already starting to feel better, and it is lovely having you both in the practice!
Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Josh and Amber at Portobello Chiropractic highly enough. What a lovely team they are. They are incredibly kind, helpful and a joy to chat with. Josh explains the treatment plan clearly and has an amazing ability to pinpoint exactly where to focus treatment without me even needing to mention where the niggles are! Visiting each week is always a pleasure. The practice is modern and comfortable. I'm halfway through my treatment plan and already feeling a huge difference - no more headaches or neck pain and a real boost in overall wellbeing. I'd go every week forever if I could! And let’s not forget the wacky sock competition!
Thank you so much for this Mellissa! We love having you in the practice and we are so happy to be helping you, and making a difference in your life!
Fantastic experience: If you're looking for the best chiropractic care in Edinburgh, (and a more iconic duo than Hugh Jackman & Ryan Reynolds) look no further than Josh and Amber at Portobello Chiropractic. From the moment you walk in, you feel warm and welcomed. Both Josh and Amber are incredibly personable, taking the time to listen and understand your needs with genuine care. Josh is an absolute pro when it comes to understanding your pain and problems, creating and communicating a progress plan and providing the treatment you need to feel your best self again. You'll leave feeling not only better physically but also genuinely cared for. Highly recommend!
Wow Julian! This might be one of the best compliments we have received! We are SO glad you came across our clinic and we have been able to improve your life to get you feeling like your best self! Always a pleasure having you in the clinic, and we truly value your positive review and recommendation! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: After struggling with persistent back pain and tension for years I recently started going to Portobello Chiropractic and I'm so glad I did. What impressed me most was how quickly I began to feel the difference - not just in pain relief, but in overal mobility, posture and energy levels. I feel stronger and more aligned. The team is professional and very friendly. My posture has improved and the pain is nearly gone, I feel better overall. Absolutely worth it!
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Jenny! We are so happy to hear how we have helped you, and really appreciate you taking the time to share your positive experience with us! Always a pleasure having you in the practice
Fantastic experience: 10/10 recommend! Josh is amazing. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel with back pain and actually have an understanding of my body. Amber at reception is always so friendly and most helpful!
Thank you so much Ericka! We love having you in the practice and we are SO pleased to hear you have a better understanding of your body and getting relief from your pain
Fantastic experience: Great people and practice; been extremely helpful for me; highly recommend!
Thank you so much Noon! We love having you in the practice and so glad we’ve helped you!
Fantastic experience: I was recommended to Josh by my mum (who has rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis) and stepdad (a retired satellite engineer and keen golfer). This is my second time around coming to Josh for sessions. I have chronic back pain which flares up and fibromyalgia. The first time, around 8 months ago, I was in so much pain that sitting for more than about 10 minutes at a time was impossible. I had a few sessions and had a sudden realisation that I had been sitting for almost an hour and hadn't noticed! I went back again today, as I had been camping for a few days and was in AGONY after getting a massage yesterday. I could barely move my neck, my lower back and hips felt "stuck" and I had the worst headache ever. The neck adjustment actually made me cry because it felt so good I'm on the bus home and I can rotate my head to the right again, the headache is subsiding and my lower back feels a bit better and I know that it will continue to improve. I also love that the team seem to genuinely care and love their jobs, an energy which leaves you feeling like a valued customer! Thanks Josh!
Thank you so much for this amazing review! We are thrilled to have you back in the practice, and we appreciate your kind and thoughtful words so much! See you next week!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to see Josh for the last 8weeks as I was having back and neck pain, from the get go Josh and amber were welcoming and helpful, the treatment I have received has helped me massively and I’d highly recommend Josh if you have back or neck issues.
Thank you so much for reviewing us Jamie! We are so glad to have helped you so much and love having you in the practice!
Fantastic experience: Feeling amazing after an adjustment with Josh! He really listens to you and explains everything so well. The clinic is modern and welcoming, and you always get a warm greeting from the lovely Amber on the desk. Such a fabulous team! Would definitely recommend to everyone.
Thank you so much Kirsty! So lovely having you in the practice
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Portobello Chiropractor, the service from Josh and Amber is professional, friendly and welcoming. I am nearly pain free on a daily basis after many years of significant back pain and related peripheral pain in arms and legs.
Thanks so much for the kind words Ryan, we are so glad to have helped you with your pain, and love having you in the clinic!
Fantastic experience: Thrilled to have had this place open here in Porty! Josh does a great job and is able to accommodate a no-torque approach by using the drop table and activator instead of any twisting. I’ve had good results and get monthly maintenance appointments for ongoing support. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much Celeste! We are so thrilled to have you in the clinic and having found what works best for you! It’s always lovely catching up with you!
Fantastic experience: I came to Portobello Chiropractic after 7 years of different physiotherapists and doctor's appointments with no improvement. Within weeks with Josh and Amber I felt more improvement than I ever had. I've been going for adjustments for about 3 months now and my lower back pain is pretty much nonexistent, and my whole body feels like it's working properly for the first time in about 10 years. I'll be coming here for a long time. Josh and Amber are wonderful and really fit well into the Portobello community. The dog treats at reception are the icing on the cake for my dog. Thanks so much guys.
Thank you so much Caroline! We love having you both in the clinic, and really appreciate your kind words, and that you’ve seen so much improvement with us!
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a superb and caring Chiropracter in Edinburgh look no further! Josh is excellent at what he does, and my experience has been that he has made a really positive impact on my wellbeing. I highly recommend Josh and his practice.
Thank you so much Ian! We love having you in the practice
Fantastic experience: I appreciate Josh and the work he does on my back. I have had issues for many years with my back and have gone to chiropractors for years and Josh is my favorite. The friendliness of everyone in the office is great as well and make it a great experience every time.
Thank you so much Margot! It’s lovely having you in the clinic, and we are so happy to hear the care and experience you receive is a good one!
Fantastic experience: Very professional and always friendly and caring service. Definitely recommend ☺️
Thank you so much Vidya, always a pleasure having you in the practice!
Fantastic experience: Didn't know what to expect as had never been to a chiro, wish I'd done it years ago as it's not only helped my posture and shoulder pain but has helped with headaches and pulsatile tinnitus! Ive even got my 75 yr old Dad adjusted with Josh and he's moving so much easier after 2 hip replacements!
Thanks so much for your review Lorraine! We love having you and your dad in the practice and so happy to hear how much better you’re both doing!
Fantastic experience: I've dealt with chronic back pain for over 10 years, and it's only since consistently seeking treatment with Portobello Chiropractic that I've been able to go entire days without needed to take pain medication. It's been life-changing to see the difference in my posture and alignment, and more importantly, to feel the difference. Josh and Amber are an attentive, kind, and considerate team who always make you feel welcome, and the combination of excellent treatment and positive energy is truly impactful. Highly, highly recommend.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this Naila! We are so glad you are feeling and seeing the difference! Always enjoy having you in the clinic
Fantastic experience: I had various aches and pains as well as nerve discomfort for years and it had just become a way of life. Having been to a previous chiropractor and not seeing much improvement, I decided to try again and I am so glad I found Josh. I started my chiropractic journey in February and over the last few months there has been a huge improvement! My nerve discomfort has gone, my posture is better and my aches are virtually non existent and any I do get, don’t last long. I have had other health issues and Josh has been a great support, he is caring and easy to talk to and has given me sound advice and wellbeing tips. I really feel my overall health has benefitted and I have more energy and I am much happier. I highly recommend Portobello Chiropractic - Josh is the best, Amber on reception greets you with a welcome smile and the premises are immaculate which all makes for a very pleasant visit!
Thank you so much for your review Norma! We are so glad you are feeling better! It is a pleasure having you in the practice, and it’s lovely chatting to you as well as helping you feel your best!
Fantastic experience: I chose Josh and his practice on the back of great reviews I found on this platform and I can say, I have not been disappointed. Josh is the only one so far that has been able to diagnose my condition and even though I've only had a few sessions, I can feel the improvement already. He's explained everything in detail, always happy to answer any questions, and has come up with a plan to address my condition. I would definitely recommend his practice if you're searching for a chiropractor. Update: I've been attending the practice for over 4 months now and I've noticed improvements in my posture. The adjustment session are paying off and I don't have as much discomfort as I used to have. Josh is always happy to answer any questions, provides a great service, and before you get a chance to see him, there's Amber in the reception who will always greet you with a smiley face.
Thank you so much for the review Arek! We are so glad you found our clinic and we look forward to working with you! Always a pleasure having you in the practice, and so glad you’re already feeling the improvement!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Josh since January as I had been struggling with ongoing back issues I was over the moon when he said he could help! Fast forward to May and I feel like I have a new back. I have gone from feeling 84 to 34 again! Would highly recommend the team as they are ever so welcoming and extremely talented! I’m forever grateful to have found them! Thank you guys so much
We’re so grateful that you found us too Kirsty! You have been so committed to your care and the results show. It’s a pleasure having you and your daughter in the practice. Here’s to keeping you feeling younger for longer! Thank you so much for your feedback we really appreciate it
Fantastic experience: Such a welcoming place and Josh is a real professional. He knows his stuff and I have great confidence in him. I feel mobile for first time in years. Amber is the perfect receptionist, friendly and makes the clients feel special. Everyone should have a Josh and Amber in their life. Morag 67 retired. PS: After 6 months into treatment, I can honestly say that I feel like a new person. I am so grateful to Josh. I am much more mobile with much less aches and pains. Improving all the time. Its well worth the money spent, it's been so worth it to feel so much better. Its not a quick fix, you have to stick with it and the results are so rewarding. Thankyou Josh x
Thank you so much Morag! This is such lovely feedback! Everyone needs a Morag in their life too!
Fantastic experience: I have been to a few Chiropractors over the years with none of the results being as good after seeing Josh at Portobello Chiropractic. I’m halfway through my course and can’t believe the difference in my knee and elbow which I have arthritis in, my neck and shoulder which had been keeping me up through the night. He is also treating my wrist which I broke 15yrs ago and is feeling much better. I would greatly recommend a visit. Amber will welcome you with a great smile. Dawn
Thanks so much Dawn! We are so glad to have helped you and you are seeing the results. Always a pleasure having you in the practice
Fantastic experience: My goal with seeing a chiropractor was to improve my mobility and reduce some aches and pains that have crept in over the years. Josh has been receptive and encouraging with this and significant improvement has been made, noticeable both on a day to day basis and on the review stats and photos. I feel more mobile and supple and Josh's openness about the ongoing treatment regime and costs is refreshing and honest. Josh and Amber on reception are friendly, genuine and welcoming too, making the whole experience just brilliant. A pair of diamonds! All in all very glad I decided to try them out and am now a regular client as they help me continue to enjoy and participate fully in life.
Thank you so much for the review Graham! We really appreciate it! We are so glad we have bettered your life and noticing the improvements!
Fantastic experience: Incredible results. Lovely staff.
Thanks so much Ray! Always a pleasure having you in the practice, and we appreciate your dedication to care
Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend Josh. I went to him with arthritis in my ankle and tendinitis . I was very dubious at first but I can trust he knows what he is doing. He has been able to sooth the pain and relieve me of hip pain caused from over compensation. He is still working on my ankle and straighten my spine which had a slight curvature . I have every faith in him that I will be right as rain very soon.
Thank you so much for the 5 star review Catie! We really appreciate you trusting us with your spinal health
Fantastic experience: I have been attending Portobello Chiropractic since December for back and neck pain. What a difference a few months make after coming to see Josh, my headaches are far less and my back feels so much better making such a difference in my day to day life. If you are considering making an appointment you won't regret it! Josh and Amber are both professional, caring and friendly. Sarah
Thank you so much for your kind feedback Sarah! We’re so happy to hear the impact Chiropractic care is having on your life! Love having you in the practice and we look forward to your continued improvement

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Josh for a few months now and it's made such a difference. Not just in relieving pain but in my overall wellbeing. He takes the time to explain everything and puts your mind at ease. I was originally terrified of going but now I look forward to my adjustments! Both Amber and Josh are so lovely and can't recommend them enough!
Thank you so much Shelley! It’s lovely having you in the practice, you make our days with your positive mindset! So glad you found us and we are helping you
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Portobello Chiropractic. I have recently started treatment for my poor posture and shoulder pain, and Josh has made me feel comfortable and informed from the beginning. I really appreciate the care taken to explain the process and adjustments as we go. Amber gives a warm welcome upon arrival and is a great help with scheduling appointments. I look forward to treatments and to seeing and feeling the progress!
Thanks so much for your review Phoebe! We look forward to helping you, and so glad you are happy with the process and clinic
Fantastic experience: A Truly Exceptional Experience at Portobello Chiropractic I cannot recommend Josh at Portobello Chiropractic highly enough. His knowledge, expertise, and experience in chiropractic care are second to none. Every time I visit, I leave feeling significantly better, not just physically but also reassured that I’m in the best possible hands. His understanding of the human body and ability to pinpoint the root of any issue is outstanding. What truly sets him apart is his ability to explain things clearly, ensuring that I always understand what’s happening and why. Beyond his technical skills, Josh’s customer service and empathy are absolutely 10/10. He genuinely cares about his patients and takes the time to listen, making sure every session is tailored to individual needs. No matter what’s going on, I always feel comfortable and confident in his care, and that’s a rare quality to find. Equally impressive is the level of accommodation provided at Portobello Chiropractic. They truly go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly for their clients. I have a hectic schedule, and despite my best efforts, I sometimes find myself running late or needing to reschedule appointments. However, Josh and Amber have always been incredibly understanding and flexible, accommodating me whenever possible. Amber, in particular, deserves a special mention. She is always friendly, professional, and efficient, making booking and communication effortless. She responds promptly to emails, which makes organizing appointments so much easier, and she maintains a welcoming and positive atmosphere that reflects the high standards of the clinic. I genuinely appreciate the care and service I receive here and feel incredibly blessed to have found such an amazing team. Portobello Chiropractic is, without a doubt, the best place for chiropractic care, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier treatment with exceptional customer service.
Thank you so much for this amazing 5 star review Tanveer. We highly appreciate the time you took to share your experience with us! Always a pleasure having you in the practice, and so glad we’re helping you feel better
Fantastic experience: Always so lovely to come in and be greeted by Amber, She keeps it so real I love it. I’ve been coming here for overall posture issues and Josh is like magic my shoulder pain is barely there anymore! He’s always up for answering any questions about the treatment.
Thanks so much for the lovely words Snezana! Love the reception chats, and so glad you’re feeling the benefits of your treatment! Keep up the great work
Fantastic experience: I have suffered with shoulder, neck and back pain for some time and I finally decided to do something about it and I am so glad that I did. Josh set out a plan to help improve my symptoms and posture and I am seeing and feeling amazing improvements. Visiting Josh has become an integral part of me looking after my health and wellbeing! Thank you to Josh and the super efficient Amber.
We are so glad you came to see us Danielle! Thank you so much for your 5 star review, we really appreciate it! You’re smashing it!
