I'm Peter Bennett!

Hello, I’m Peter Bennett, a chiropractor based in Penrith, Cumbria.


I’ve spent more than 25 years helping people reduce pain, move better, and get more life back into their years.

My approach is gentle — no cracking, no heavy-handed adjustments — just safe, effective techniques that work with your body instead of against it.


Over the years, I’ve learned that the human body is incredibly good at trying to heal itself. My job is simply to understand what it’s trying to do and give it the right support.

People come to see me for all sorts of reasons — stiff backs after gardening, neck pain from long hours at a desk, or just feeling less steady than they used to.

Whatever brings you in, my goal is the same: to help you move more easily and feel more confident doing the things you love.

I believe great healthcare starts with kindness, clear explanations, and respect for each person’s pace. You’ll never be rushed or pressured here — just guided gently toward better movement and lasting results.

When I’m not in clinic, I’m usually outdoors walking in the fells, writing about longevity science, or creating online programs that help people stay active and independent later in life.

Why I Do This

When I first started in chiropractic, I thought the job was all about fixing spines.


But over the years, I’ve realised it’s really about helping people trust their bodies again.

I’ve seen how back pain can slowly chip away at someone’s confidence — the way they move, work, even how they laugh. One day it’s just a niggle, and before long it’s changed how they live. Helping someone turn that around, gently and safely, is still the best part of my week.

I’ve always believed the body isn’t broken — it’s doing its best to protect you. My role is to understand what it’s trying to do and guide it back toward balance. That might mean easing tension in the spine, retraining movement, or simply helping you breathe a little easier.

What keeps me going is seeing people realise they can do more than they thought — walking the fells again, picking up grandchildren, or just waking up without that constant stiffness.

It’s those moments that remind me why I chose this path all those years ago.

My aim has never been just to treat backs — it’s to help people move freely, live fully, and enjoy their years with confidence.

FAQS

What conditions can we help with?

Spinal health care can help a wide range of conditions, including back and neck pain, headaches, sciatica, joint pain, and even issues related to posture. It's not just about addressing the symptoms; it's about improving your overall health and well-being by improving the health of your spine and nervous system. If you have specific concerns or questions about your condition, please don't hesitate to ask for a consultation to discuss how spinal health care can benefit you.

Is spinal health care safe, and are the adjustments painful?

Spinal health care is generally considered safe when performed by trained professionals. The adjustments are typically not painful; in fact, many clients report feeling relief and improved mobility after an adjustment. Our therapists are highly skilled and will use gentle techniques tailored to your individual needs. Your comfort and safety are our top priorities, and we will explain every step of the process to ensure you feel at ease during your sessions.

How many visits will I need to see results?

The number of sessions you'll need depends on various factors, including the nature and severity of your condition, your overall health, and your treatment goals. Some clients experience relief after just a few sessions, while others may require more ongoing care. During your initial Spinal Health Assessment, we will assess your specific situation and provide a personalised treatment plan. Our goal is to provide efficient and effective care, so you can return to a pain-free and healthy lifestyle as soon as possible.

When should I see my doctor instead of a chiropractor?

Most back or neck problems are mechanical and respond well to gentle chiropractic care.
See your GP or call NHS 111 if you have fever, weight loss, cancer history, night sweats, recent trauma, numbness in the saddle area, bladder or bowel changes, severe unrelenting pain, or sudden weakness.

Call 999 immediately if you notice stroke signs
Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech changes, Time to call 999 (FAST) — or sudden dizziness, vision loss, or a severe new headache.

If you’re unsure, call us — we’ll help you decide the safest next step.

Migraine Relief in Cumbria After 50 Years of Pain

Migraine Relief in Cumbria After 50 Years of Pain

November 14, 20252 min read

For over 50 years, a lovely lady from Cumbria suffered from migraines. Not just the occasional bad headache—these were disabling, exhausting episodes. She’d been having three migraines a week ever since the birth of her first child.

Three migraines a week. For five decades.

That’s thousands of days lost to pain. And worse than that—thousands of moments she missed with her children. Birthday parties cut short, family holidays spent lying in a dark room, precious milestones experienced through a fog of nausea and pounding head pain.

Then she found her way to us.

She was in her seventies when she first came to Your Spinal Health. She was active, cheerful, and strong—but fed up with living under the shadow of constant migraine attacks.

After listening to her story, we carried out a gentle and thorough spinal assessment. There were signs of long-standing tension and imbalance in the top of her neck—an area we often find involved in chronic migraine cases. We put together a careful plan of gentle chiropractic care. No cracking. No pressure. Just specific, skilled work to support her body’s ability to heal.

After a short course of treatment, her migraines stopped.

Not reduced.

Stopped.

The first time she came in after a fortnight with no migraines at all, she burst into tears. Not just from relief, but from grief too.

“I’m angry,” she said. “Why didn’t anyone tell me this could help? Why did I lose all that time?”

It was a powerful reminder that people often don’t know how chiropractic care might help with migraines. Especially here in Cumbria, where many just put up with things and get on with it.

We’re sharing her story (with permission) because we want you to know that if you or someone you love suffers from migraines in Cumbria, there may be a natural, drug-free option that hasn’t been explored yet.

Chiropractic won’t help everyone. But for some people, particularly where there's an issue in the upper spine or nervous system, it can be life-changing.

What to do next

If this story sounds familiar, don’t wait 50 years. Book a free chat with us. There’s no pressure—just a conversation about whether our approach might be worth trying.

We can’t promise miracles. But we can promise we’ll listen.
