Back Pain Treatment in Beverley
Our Beverley clinic on Eastgate sits a short walk from the Minster and the railway station. Dr Guy Gosselin sees patients here every Tuesday afternoon and Thursday morning, with the same thorough assessment and personal approach as at our Hull clinic.
Back pain in Beverley and the surrounding villages
Patients come to Eastgate from across Beverley and from nearby villages including Molescroft, Walkington, Tickton, Cherry Burton and Bishop Burton. Some have had a sudden twinge lifting something in the garden; others have lived with a stiff, aching back for years and have simply had enough.
Common reasons people book with us in Beverley include:
- A sudden “locked” lower back after bending or lifting
- An aching back after long car journeys or commuting
- Stiffness first thing in the morning that eases as the day goes on
- Back pain from golf, running, cycling or riding
- Pain that has come and gone for years without a clear explanation
- Back pain that has not improved with painkillers, rest or exercise alone

What treatment involves
Finding the cause
Every first appointment begins with a careful history and a hands-on examination of your lower back, pelvis and hips. Dr Gosselin also checks the nerves to your legs where needed, so that anything requiring a different route of care is picked up early.
Explaining it clearly
You’ll leave knowing what is most likely causing your pain and what can be done about it. If further tests would genuinely help, we can write to your GP, arrange a private consultant appointment or refer you for an MRI scan.
Treating it
Where it’s safe and appropriate, treatment can begin at the first visit. Depending on your examination, it may include gentle joint mobilisation, spinal manipulation, soft-tissue techniques and targeted exercises. Everything is explained first and done only with your agreement.
Keeping it better
You’ll also get practical advice on how to stay active, how to sit and lift, and what to do if the pain flares again, so you’re less likely to need us in future.
Ergonomic advice
We’ll also look at the everyday set-up that may be keeping your back sore: your chair and desk if you work from home or in an office, your car seat and driving position, how you lift in the garden or at work, and your mattress and sleeping position. You’ll get specific, practical ergonomic changes to make.
Three visits.
That’s all it should take to know if your treatment is actually working. Research suggests that if treatment is working, most people see real change within the first few visits. Not thirty visits. Three.
No change? That’s not a reason to keep going — it’s time to reassess, investigate further, or try a different approach.
Good care isn’t measured in appointments booked. It’s measured in results — and you’ll know by visit three.
