Our comment from PhysioFinder.net about Hazel Bugler:

A Holistic Approach to Chiropractic Care and Well-being

Hazel Bugler offers a multidisciplinary and holistic practice in Bristol, blending her extensive background as a chiropractor with expertise in yoga therapy, breathwork, and rehabilitation. With over two decades of experience in the health and wellness industry, she provides a unique fusion of treatment techniques that address not only the physical symptoms but also the underlying stress and tensions affecting the patient's overall well-being. Her approach is deeply personalized, ensuring that every session is tailored to the individual's specific needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all protocol.

Expertise in Pain Relief and Rehabilitation

Patients consistently highlight Hazel's ability to provide effective relief for a wide range of issues, from acute injuries to chronic conditions. Her toolkit includes chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue work, dry needling, and electrotherapy, often combined with exercises designed to aid recovery. Reviews frequently mention successful management of lower back pain, neck issues, sciatica, and injuries related to sports or daily activities. Her experience working with active individuals, including her time with the London 2012 Paralympic Games, underscores her proficiency in treating both athletic injuries and lifestyle-related ailments. Patients appreciate her encyclopaedic knowledge of the human body, which allows her to diagnose issues accurately and create effective, long-term care plans.

A Reassuring and Compassionate Patient Experience

A standout feature of Hazel’s practice is her warm, welcoming, and reassuring demeanor. For many patients, especially those visiting a chiropractor for the first time, the experience can be intimidating. Hazel excels at putting people at ease, taking the time to explain each step of the assessment and treatment process clearly. Patients describe her as attentive, kind, and genuinely caring, noting that she listens intently to their concerns and respects their comfort levels. This empathetic approach creates a safe space where patients feel heard and supported, transforming what could be a clinical visit into a comforting and positive experience.

Integration of Yoga, Breathwork, and Self-Care Education

Uniquely, Hazel integrates her deep knowledge of yoga and breathwork into her clinical practice. She does not just treat the problem in the moment but empowers patients with the knowledge to manage their own health. Patients receive detailed advice on posture, movement, and exercises to incorporate into their daily lives, fostering a sense of independence and long-term wellness. This educational aspect is highly valued, as it helps patients understand the root causes of their pain and equips them with the tools to maintain their progress between sessions. The combination of manual therapy and holistic education makes her practice particularly effective for those seeking sustainable improvements in their physical health.

Catherine Gadd (Cate) Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Hazel takes time to understand your needs and how it's affecting you physically to work the best treatment plan for you. She always puts you at ease (the thought of a chiropractor can unnerve people who haven't experienced before) and ensures at all times you are comfortable and understand what's involved. Easy booking system, easy location, excellent treatment and highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Hazel was warm and welcoming for my consultation. I can see why Hazels professional and holistic approach to treatment was recommended by my friend. I came away with both knowledge and actions which has left me feeling positive about helping my aches and pains!

Fantastic experience: Hazel is so lovely and has helped me so much. I came to her in August with plantar fasciitis (sharp heel pain) and now it has gone. She has also helped me with my posture, neck pain, back pain and glute pain. She’s very knowledgable. She also teaches you how to take care of yourself daily, not just at the appointments.

Fantastic experience: Warm & welcoming, astute & affective. Hazel helped me with my lower back and aided me in understanding the reasons why I was experiencing these issues in a holistic way. She used multiple techniques and I left the clinic feeling significantly better every time. The visits were. Also very reasonably priced.

MJ Grunen Published on Google

Fantastic experience: This was my first chiropractor session and Hazel was very welcoming, professional and reassuring. I left the session feeling like I’d been fully heard and treated, and she gave me detailed advice on how to improve my physical shape going forward. I also appreciated that she only used the cracking technique when it was warranted, not just for the sake of it. Instead, she used a range of techniques that best suited my condition. Would recommend to anyone, whether it’s your first time or you’re seasoned patient!

Hey Chris, thank you for such a lovely review :)

Catherine White Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Hazel is always professional and lovely. She has treated my aches and pains both trivial and serious for over ten years now. She fixed my hips when I couldn't walk after mowing the lawn at 34 weeks pregnant. I went from shuffling along using a stick to walking properly after one session. She helped me loads with my back when I had disc bulges which caused severe sciatica, she's sorted out a frozen shoulders which left me in so much pain I was struggling to walk and she fixes my recurrent episodes of Benign proximal positional vertigo (BPPV) always careful that I don't fall off the bed in dizzy state. She's listen to my woes when I've cried because the pain and life just becomes too much! It's tempting to book an appointment even when I don't have a issue that needs treating, just to have a chat!

Hannah H Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I had such a wonderful experience with Hazel this week. I was a little worried, it being my first chiropractic appointment, but Hazel instantly put me at ease. There was a thorough initial assessment where she really took the time to learn about me and my body, really understanding my quite complicated medical history. Hazel then performed her treatment, which was a mix of chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture and soft tissue massage. Overall, I can't wait to go back!

Fantastic experience: Hazel was amazing with her treatment and assessment since I am a first time customer. She adjusted my shoulder and neck and did a very good job with them and thanks to her I believe I could sleep better now can't wait to get adjusted next week to fix my neck situation even further until I am 100% fine. Thank you very much Hazel for your help!

Fantastic experience: I have been to Hazel for years. She is the only one able to adjust my neck the way it need it after many whiplash from horse ridding my neck as always been my weakest. Hazel simply know how to help and ease the tension. She also isn’t someone that will hit you with a crazy costly course of care. And this what I like. Making me feel at ease and always feeling brand new walking out the clinic. Thank you and see you Friday x

Fantastic experience: Hazel was the first after a very long list of others before her who had tried to treat my repeated shoulder injury that had plagued me for years. A few years ago after a series of treatments, Hazel had resolved my problem and I haven’t needed treatment for the issue since! Another unrelated issue came up with my neck and after a couple of sessions, the problem was resolved. Hazel is a chiropractic wizard and I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is my go to now for all chiropractic and physio related problems.

Fantastic experience: Hazel Bugler is amazing. I have been seeing her on and off for years now. As a sports massage therapist I can be picky on what practitioners I go to see, but Hazel's knowledge and approach are super effective and her bubbly nature just tops off the whole experience. She gives advice clearly and educates you as well as manually treats the issues. I respect and trust her to do what she can and refer patients when need be. What a woman!

Fantastic experience: Hazel has been my Chiropractor for a few years now. I really enjoy her approach of combining yoga knowledge with the treatments. The needling, massage, straps and exercises are so much more than I was expecting and have received before. She has saved my neck, back and hips a number of times! Always come away feeling amazing - even if it's sore the next day my range of movement and chronic pain always vanishes. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Hazel for 7 years and I honestly don’t know how I would get through without her. I’ve had lists of Chiros over the years but as soon as I found Hazel I knew I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Hazel is knowledgeable, friendly and professional. She talks in depth about how lifestyle can help your pain, as well as being very anatomical. Over the years of working together on my chronic pain, she knows exactly how to maintain my condition so that I can manage day to day. Thank you Hazel.
