What does Isis stand for?

Isis is a group of Chiropractic Centres affiliated with many different health care practitioners that work together under one roof (well, three roofs).

The name Isis is not an abbreviation and we are not affiliated to any political or religious organisations.

When we started our Chiropractic Centres back in the 1980s we where looking for a name that we could identify with, a name that fitted in with our ethos and a name that was different and gave our three clinics an identity.

There was no reason to worry then, that the name Isis could possibly be misunderstood.
