Jon Handley-Collins, Doctor of Chiropractic and Injection Therapy

  • I love working with the team here, it's always very friendly and relaxed. My original profession is Chiropractic which I began 16 years ago. After branching out to complete a PGDip in MSK ultrasound and ultrasound guided injections I established Leigh Injection Clinic to provide as many variations of injection therapy possible to the community.

Trudi Russell, Chiropractic Assistant, The Optimum Spine Centre and Leigh Injection Clinic

  • I have been working at the clinic for 12 years and still enjoy seeing how treatments benefit patients. I enjoy socialising and eating out. I try to balance this by healthy eating and boxercise classes. I work with a great team of people and can honestly say you will always be welcomed here with a friendly smile.
