One of London’s best-known independent musculoskeletal clinics becomes a founding practice of Bonica Healthcare.
Bodytonic Clinic, the London practice with sites in Canada Water and Stratford, has joined Bonica Healthcare as a founding member. Originally started by founder James in 2006 and rebranded as Bodytonic Clinic in 2015, the practice has built a strong reputation across East and Southeast London for hands-on, personal musculoskeletal care. Today Bodytonic Clinic offers osteopathy, physiotherapy, chiropractic and shockwave therapy to thousands of patients each year.
The practice joins Bonica Healthcare at the start of the group’s buy-and-build journey, retaining its clinical team and its character while gaining the investment, shared expertise and support of a wider group.
For founder James Gill, the decision was about giving an already successful clinic the platform to do more, without losing what made it work in the first place.
From starting to practice in 2006 to rebranding as Bodytonic Clinic in 2015, I have become incredibly protective of what I have created over the years. The team, the standards, and the relationships with our patients. What drew me to Bonica Healthcare was that they understood that completely. This is a group built by people who know musculoskeletal care, not just a balance sheet. They want to invest in our clinicians and our services, not paper over what already works. That is a rare thing to find, and it is why this felt like the right home rather than simply the right deal.
James Gill, Founder, Bodytonic Clinic
Bodytonic Clinic patients will continue to see the same clinicians, with the group’s backing expected to support shorter waiting times, investment in facilities and an expanded range of services across both London sites.
Bodytonic Clinic has built a genuine reputation for personal, hands-on care across its two London sites. We are delighted to welcome the team to the group and to support them as they reach even more patients, with more services, across the capital.
