Following approximately six years under mainland ownership, the Birmingham Road clinic now aims to become a leading health and rehabilitation hub for the Island, offering an expanded range of treatments while maintaining its existing team and services.

Island businessman Charlie Panayi has acquired the business and said: “Cowes Chiropractic Clinic already has a fantastic team, a loyal patient base and a strong reputation built up over many years.

“We haven’t bought it because we want to come in and change all of that, quite the opposite.

“Our message from the beginning has been: no change, only additions.

“We want to protect everything people already know and value about the clinic, while asking a much bigger question: what else could we offer from here that would genuinely benefit people on the Isle of Wight?”

The clinic currently offers chiropractic care, physiotherapy, massage, full-body rehabilitation, sports therapy, acupuncture and ultrasound therapy.

Osteopathy has recently been added, with osteopath Steve Mann joining the team.

Mr Panayi said: “We have now introduced osteopathy with Steve Mann joining the team, and we’re actively working on several other areas of healthcare that complement what we already do.

“The opportunity to bring more of those services together under one roof is enormous.”

As part of its expansion, Cowes Chiropractic Clinic will also host regular free skin-check clinics in association with Zoe’s Law and The Lighthouse Clinic.

The first clinic will be held on Tuesday, October 13, with additional sessions planned every eight weeks.

Mr Panayi said: “The skin-check clinics are a great example of what we mean when we talk about becoming a health hub.

“It’s not about trying to turn Cowes Chiropractic Clinic into something completely different.

“It’s about looking at the premises, the team, the thousands of people we already have a relationship with and asking how we can make more high-quality healthcare available to Islanders.”

He also reassured current patients that their existing care will remain unchanged, and that the clinic’s growth is focused on building upon what already works.
