PAISLEY OSTEOPATHIC CLINIC Paisley Osteopathic Clinic is situated on the town’s Moss Street and offers a range of osteopathic and massage services with clients ranging from just three weeks to 99 years old.

“People think of osteopaths as back pain specialists,” said owner Asif Allauddin. “But actually, many patients are surprised to learn that we can treat a wide range of ailments including neck and shoulder pain, digestive problems, arthritis, trapped nerves and conditions such as Fibromyalgia.

“Our work is aimed at relieving the underlying medical ailment, rather than just the symptoms, resulting in longlasting pain relief and often a minimal risk of recurrence.

“We offer daytime and evening appointments as well as Saturday mornings and also have concessionary rates for the over-65s, those in full-time education or on low incomes as well as special rates for emergency services personnel.

ORCHARD CLINIC PAISLEY MASSAGE AND PODIATRY Based on the very street that bears its name, Orchard Clinic Paisley Massage and Podiatry looks to provide an “all-round service” that’s intended to maximise the benefits for their clients.

“We are a very busy clinic and there is a high demand for our podiatry service. This is necessary for common foot problems such as corns, hard skin removal and nail problems, but can also prevent any further lower limb and alignment issues”, Orchard’s Claire Hart remarked.

“It is essential to take care of our feet, especially as we get older or if you have any medical conditions like diabetes. Most of our clients tend to re-book and we get a lot of word-of-mouth referrals. The feedback can be instant as most people report pain being relieved after the appointment and it’s always gratifying to know we have done our job!

“In terms of the holistic side of the business, the most popular treatments are back massage and Thai foot massage. So many people suffer from back, neck or shoulder pain which is why the former is so popular. Back pain can be caused by injury but also by the everyday things that affect our posture like sitting at a desk, on a computer, driving, carrying a heavy handbag or being on a mobile phone.

“The aim with our treatments is to get a balance between relaxation and working on specific muscular problems.” added Claire. “Regular massage is excellent for pain management, but it’s also ideal if you want to pamper yourself !”

PAISLEY PHYSIOTHERAPY CENTRE If anyone knows how immensely rewarding it is to improve someone’s quality of life through your skillset, it’s Andrew Binning and the team at Paisley Physiotherapy. After beginning his career at the service of various Scottish football sides, Andrew opened his Paisley clinic in 1998 and has never looked back.

“From seeing a few patients in the depths of the main stand at Love St to building up a successful sports injury clinic and eventually setting up Paisley Physiotherapy Centre, I have seen a huge number of people from all over Renfrewshire.” said Andrew. “My wife and business partner, Lesley and I, have been lucky enough to have a loyal and ever-growing clientele and have benefited from many great team members across the years.

“We provide a wide range of treatments and offer a large range of modalities that many other practices don’t offer. We provide electrotherapy such as ultrasound and interferential, acupuncture, massage and sports massage, rehabilitation from injury, post-op, manipulation/adjustments, Pilates, and kinesiology taping amongst others.”

“We don’t exclusively offer Shockwave Therapy but there are very few clinics who do because of the high initial cost and ongoing maintenance costs,” Andrew continued. “If you check out our Facebook, you can see the number of high-profile clients we’ve treated including players from St Mirren, Rangers and Glasgow Warriors.”
