Chelsea Natural Health Clinic

Based in the bright, modern, caring and peaceful setting that is 208 Fulham Road, Chelsea, SW10 (right on the border of SW3, SW7 and SW5) and just opposite the Chelsea and Westminster hospital we, as an extensive team of practitioners, aim to provide the best care we possibly can. Many years of experience reside under our roof and we believe passionately in nature knowing best and in the bodies intrinsic ability to regulate and heal itself. We believe wholeheartedly that disease comes from the overburdening of our systems and the suppression of our bodies natural defence mechanisms. Through a huge variety of treatment approaches on offer at the clinic, ranging from Osteopathy Cranial Osteopathy, Acupuncture, Massage, Nutritional Therapy and Medical herbalism through to all sorts of massage, Reiki and Hypnotherapy to name but some, we aim to help you help your body and mind heal by restoring the body’s ability of heal and nurture. We are proactive facilitators of health, vitality and well being.

We also have special areas of interest as individual practitioners and as a collective clinic, such as pregnancy /antenatal, post natal care,  fertility,  family and baby (as opposed to just mother and baby - not diminishing the role of the mother but hey Dad’s and siblings are important as well!). We have extensive knowledge and experience in such areas and have good working relationships with places such as the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital and the Women’s Wellness Centre. Whatever your need, whether it be pregnancy related issues such as back pain, antenatal and postnatal or mother and baby yoga, cranial osteopathy to help settle the restless or colicky baby or birth preparation advice such as peri-natal hypnotherapy, we have practitioners that may well be able to help.

A pregnant woman has special needs as her body changes with the developing baby. Shiatsu massage, when properly applied during pregnancy and labour, is soothing, safe, natural, and effective.

Ten Top Benefits of Shiatsu during Pregnancy

• Shiatsu massage relaxes tense muscles and tones loose muscles

It has been brought to our attention that a company is US called Netalab is linking to our web site.  Netalab have attracted a lot of complaints it would seem because of suggestions they are running a con operation and ripping off customers.  Netalab are apparently using celebrity endorsements to promote their products.  We have no knowledge of Netalab, their products or business practice.  We know not whether Netalab are legitimate or not and have never met or come into contact with the company before.

The reason that a link to our site appears at the bottom of their web site is that they are using a freely downloaded web site template that was originally designed for us.  Our link is permanently embedded in the template and neither we nor they can remove it.  We have no control over who uses this template and in no way endorse or are responsible for the actions of any company, person or individual that use the template.  We are unable to stop Netalab using the template and we can not force them to stop using it.

If you have any questions about Netalab I am afraid we are unable to offer any answers.  We knew nothing of this until someone called us asking for details.  It has been suggested on one web site that you should contact the US authorities as it appears that the contact details posted for Netalab on their web site are false.

We are however a legitimate and well respected London based natural health clinic, so should you have any questions about your health our team of practitioners will be happy to help in any way we can.
