McTimoney Chiropractic:
deceptively gentle, powerfully effective
About McTimoney Chiropractic
McTimoney Chiropractic is a low force chiropractic technique, which uses gentle, fast, light adjustments to realign the bones and joints of the body, with particular emphasis on the joints of the spine and pelvis.
McTimoney is a precise and gentle treatment. No large twisting manoeuvres are used and the technique avoids any sharp turning of the neck. Chiropractic has been proven in clinical trials to be effective in relieving low back pain, and can also relieve the pain of upper back and neck problems, as well as many other conditions.
Patients at this clinic need on average three or four sessions. It is unusual for problems to take any more than six sessions to resolve and some take only one or two. This is because our chiropractors spend at least half an hour with you at each session and they will discuss how many sessions might be needed before treatment commences.

*Covid surcharge of £5 per session
During the current Covid crisis there is a surcharge of £5 per treatment to cover the additional costs incurred. These costs are created by the necessity for Chiropractors to wear full PPE in order to be allowed to continue treating, along with the extra time needed between appointments to disinfect the clinic. We hope you’ll understand and thank you for your support in continuing to choose Tillow Barn for your chiropractic care.
Private Medical Insurance
Should you wish to claim through private health insurance, first check with your provider as to whether your policy covers you for chiropractic treatment. A receipt can be provided with the relevant information. Fees must be paid at the time of the consultation as our chiropractors are not able to administer claims.

Our policy is to charge a 50% fee for late cancellations and for non-attendance we charge the full fee. (If you’ve made payment in advance of your appointment and need to cancel up to 24hrs beforehand we’ll refund you.)
Chiropractic Testimonials
“Abi is attentive and reassuring and makes constructive suggestions as to how to help oneself. It can be months and months between my visits but she always remembers our previous conversations! An all round excellent practitioner.”
Jean S, Dorking
“Abi’s treatments have pretty much eliminated my daughters intake of painkillers for headaches due to studying and exam stress which has been a lifesaver through the revision period! Her approach is gentle, holistic and she is very knowledgeable. Highly recommend.”
Danielle, Dorking
“Had a slight lower back pain that would come on after standing for long periods. Was diagnosed quickly and fixed within 2 sessions. I’ve not had any pain since I went in a month or so ago so excellent.”
Joe, Dorking
“Abi managed to, very gently, transform me from someone in extreme acute lower back pain to someone who could get into a car without yelping in pain! who could actually put their *own* socks on and who could actually function! I’m very grateful! Both Anne & Abi are great. I highly recommend them. The clinic is a wonderful oasis of calm.”
Jos, Crawley
“Lower back pain and unable to walk very well I booked an appointment with Abi McGuinness. When I walked out of my session it felt like I had grown a completely new leg! ………. realigned and walking with symmetry again, thanks Abi!”
Anthony, Reigate
“I visited Tillow due to back and neck pains. I saw Abi Mcguiness who helped me with chiropractic, acupuncture and massage. This treatment worked very well and I am pleased I visited. Abi is friendly and professional as well as effective. The place is small and welcoming although in the middle of nowhere (which could be thought of as a positive). I would recommend treatment here. A normal 45 minute session (after the first initial consultation) is £45. There is plenty of parking outside.”
Andrew, Brockham
“I have found the whole experience with Tillow Barn Health and Wellbeing is very welcoming and very professional. Would certainly recommend to anyone with back or joint pain.”
Lee Maidens, Guildford
“Being treated at Tillow Barn has changed my life for the better in so many ways. I was suffering from lower back pain and general misery and my first consultation/treatment was enlightening and powerful. She gave me amazing advice and exercises to do at home and I am now symptom free and SO happy. I am proud to tell her how well I am doing when I visit for my ‘maintenance treatments’ and also to receive her warm praise! Thanks for everything.”
Nina, Redhill
“The chiropractor at Tillow Barn has been sorting out my back for the past ten years or so, whenever I’ve done something daft such as over-zealous gardening or over-enthusiastic exercising. The first time I met her I could scarcely walk, the pain in my back was excruciating. I hobbled into her clinic and at the end of the session, I skipped out, free of pain. To me it was little short of a miracle. Since then she has come to my rescue on many occasions. I don’t know how she does it, but with a gentle tweak here, a nudge there ( so it seems to me) some soothing massage and sometimes some acupuncture, the pain and aching has melted away. In addition to this, she’s a very easy person to talk to and has endless patience.”
Elinor Bailey, Dorking
“I have had back problems over approx. 10 years and been to a number of Chiropractors over time. I would just like to say you are the best Chiropractor I have ever been to. From the first visit you were extremely professional, asked me a detailed history, explaining every thing as you went and putting me at ease all the time. I was amazed at your detailed, professional examination. You explained what you were doing and why you were doing it in a relaxed, friendly manner. You are a credit to your profession and I will be recommending you to anyone who I hear requires a Chiropractor. Thank you once again for all your help and assistance.”
Garry, Reigate
“I would like to say how impressed I was. The treatment I received was extremely effective for my condition and my symptoms are disappearing. Abi’s diagnosis was extremely accurate and she explained every step of her treatment in a very clear way. Her post session advice was also very easy to follow and integrate with my daily routine.”
N Stevens, Redhill
“Went to Anne after spending a ton of money on various osteopaths trying to solve a long term back problem. Within a couple of weeks and just a few sessions Anne sorted it. Now I go once every 6 months maybe when it goes again – and a 20 minute session means I can play tennis, golf, footy with my boys etc. Priceless.”
Neil Bradshaw, Reigate
“I have been a patient at the Yorke Clinic (now Tillow Barn) for the last nine months. Having Hypermobility Syndrome means my joints do not stay in place as they should. This makes many aspects of daily life very difficult. The treatment I have had at the clinic has made such a difference to my ability to do everyday tasks. Anne is so kind, supportive and positive as well as knowledgeable and professional. I will never be able to thank her enough!”
