Gary Blackwood
Doctor of Chiropractic
Deep into a demanding corporate career, I faced a pivotal life moment.
Struggling with relentless neck pain, I discovered the
transformative power of chiropractic care.
This experience didn’t just alleviate my discomfort; it ignited a passion.
Within four months, I chose to leave my well-paid job in the City, to pursue chiropractic studies with a vision to heal others.
In 2011, this journey culminated in a bold decision, having relocated to Edinburgh, I acquired a chiropractic practice.

Highly recommended!
“I can’t recommend Gary Blackwood at Whitetree Chiropractic highly enough. From the moment you walk in, you feel completely at ease – he takes the time to listen, explain, and really understand what’s going on. His knowledge and expertise are incredible, and the results speak for themselves. I’ve noticed such a difference, not only in how I feel physically but also in my overall wellbeing. Gary goes above and beyond, and it’s clear he genuinely cares about his patients. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, approachable, and truly amazing at what he does – Gary is the one!”
His knowledge and professionalism has helped me get back to pain free life again. I now need to visit less often for a checkup session and continue to do the exercises he has recommended me to do.
Thank you.
Gary is absolutely incredible at what he does, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about helping people feel their best. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone dealing with any kind of body issues. First class service from start to finish. Five stars all round! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
