Hello, I'm Claire Starbuck.

My passion for sports and fitness has been a lifelong journey, leading me to a rewarding career dedicated to helping people of all ages and abilities. Since 2000, I have enjoyed the privilege of working in the industry as a Sports Therapist and a Circuits Instructor. My background includes an honours degree in Sports Studies from Southampton University and qualifications as a Sports Therapist and Circuits Instructor with Premier Training International. I am proud to work alongside the skilled teams at the Eastleigh and Wellow Chiropractic Clinics.

My commitment to providing comprehensive care led me to become a Foot Health Practitioner. I qualified with Distinction in 2025 after training at the renowned SMAE Institute, which offers the UK's only university-accredited Foot Health course. This top-tier education has given me a deeper understanding of how the health of our feet impacts the well-being of our entire body.

As a proud member of the College of Foot Health Professionals, the Association of Foot Health Professionals, and the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT), I am fully insured and dedicated to a high standard of practice. Ultimately, my goal is to help you regain your functional fitness, whether for daily activities or competitive sports, by focusing on the health and balance of your entire body, from the feet up.

Customer Reviews

What our clients say about their experiences with us.

"I have known Claire Starbuck for approx 17 years. She has treated me on a number of occasions during that time, for both sports injuries and for non sports related issues.

I have found Claire to be highly competent in her approach to diagnosis and treatment. She always gives a clear and informative explanation of the problem and the approach she is taking to treatment. Progress is carefully monitored and appropriate advice given. Her own commitment to and experience of sport has meant that her treatment of sports related injuries is informed by common sense and pragmatism and her depth of experience over many years in treating a wide range of injuries and conditions gives her approach authority.

I have never been less than fully satisfied with her treatment and always approach her with confidence and trust."

Anne from Southampton

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for sorting out the tendinitis on my achillies tendon, which was really impacting my quality of life. This was all the more impressive since my GP said there was little that could be done and I would just have to live with it - well not any more!

Thanks again, the treatment was especially effective."
