Our APPROACH

At Perrin’s Corner Whole Health Clinic, we’re committed to a holistic approach that values your uniqueness. Each individual is like a jigsaw puzzle and together, we’ll piece together a treatment plan that addresses your specific needs.

Through a combination of hands-on techniques, and therapeutic exercises we’ll work together to restore your body’s balance and harmony. If you need more, our experienced, highly qualified Acupuncturist and Hypnotherapist/ Counsellor plus other complementary health approaches offered at the clinic completes the wholistic approach that has been helping patients in the Greater Manchester area for over 40 years.

I have seen thousands of patients ranging from top Olympic athletes and stars from the world of film stage and music to newborn babies. Over the years I have used traditional osteopathic methods to treat a variety of conditions from simple back strain to complex neurological disorders.

Since 1989 I have researched into ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and developed and continue to teach a treatment that is used successfully on patients around the world for ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia and Long Covid known as The Perrin Technique.

I am constantly incorporating evidence based treatment into my practice to help you receive the best possible care to help your recovery back to good health.

My main tenet is pain = no gain so I strive to employ the skills I have learnt, developed and taught over the past 42 years to help you reach your optimum health whilst providing a pain free and relaxing manual treatment in a tranquil environment that is found in Perrin’s Corner Whole Health Clinic.

Elaine
Practice Manager

I have worked at the clinic for 30 years. I love my job, I love the people I work with but most of all I love the patients. I feel as though I go to work to see lots of friends.

When I was much younger I moved to New Zealand. I lived in the North Island in a place called Onepoto and worked in a large Psychiatric Hospital in Porirua doing Occupational Therapy. I stayed there for five years it was a great experience.

In my spare time I love to cook and I really enjoy baking (even though I don’t have a sweet tooth!)

Ian
Osteopath

I am the longest serving associate at the Perrin Clinic ad over the years I have helped hundreds of people on their road to recovery from ME/CFS. Each of them have displayed courage and commitment to overcome this horrible illness. I have also treated a number of patients for long COVID.

I am also qualified in Classical Osteopathy and the techniques I use are slow gentle movements that are appropriate for all patients. Classical Osteopathy also recognises the importance of the lymphatics of the body and brain for good health, and this is a cornerstone of The Perrin Technique.

Of course as well as the Perrin technique I treat all the usual aches pains and strains of everyday life. Headaches, sciatica, neck pain, back pain, shoulder hip knee and foot pain.

I live in the beautiful North Wales countryside with my equally beautiful wife, I am also a father, and grandfather. I swim, cycle, fell walk, play drums, and piano. I support the world’s greatest football team!

Conrad
Acupuncturist

Conrad’s interest in Acupuncture or Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) began over ten years ago as a recipient himself for muscular skeletal pain following a work related injury. He made the decision to change his career and graduated with a B.Sc. (Hons) in Acupuncture from the University of Lincoln in 2017 and loves to enhance his treatments with Cupping, Gua Sha, and electro acupuncture where necessary and appropriate.

Conrad particularly enjoys treating all muscular skeletal conditions but is equally happy to treat any condition from migraines, through gynaecological symptoms to mental, and emotional conditions. Conrad’s interest in the subtle energy’s of the human body has encouraged the practice of Yoga, Tai Chi, and Reiki.

Conrad completed a specialist course in infertility in 2020, with this knowledge he can treat and advise patients to establish a regular cycle conducive to conception, in conjunction with IVF treatment and to maintain a healthy pregnancy.

Conrad has a dedication and compassion for his patients and a deep seated conviction that acupuncture is an exceptional alternative therapy to bring about holistic change in the human body with no side effects.
