Relieve Back & Hip Pain
Build strength and restore confidence in your body again
For people who’ve tried physio, painkillers, and rest and are still in pain. We find what’s actually causing your pain and give you the tools to stay out of it.
We work with parents, grandparents, and professionals who refuse to let pain run their life.
Do you feel like you’ve tried everything . . .
physio, chiro, painkillers, massage. Rest hasn’t worked, pain keeps coming back, and you’re tired of searching for answers. You’re in the right place.
If you’re starting to wonder whether this is just your life now — it isn’t.
At Strength & Soul we work differently. Instead of treating the symptom, we look at the way your whole body has quietly been compensating, sometimes for years. What’s tight or tense in your body, how you’re moving, and what’s driving inflammation from the inside. Our approach combines hands-on clinical bodywork, yoga therapy, and Ayurveda — because each one reaches a layer of the problem that treatment alone can’t get to, and why results from treatment alone rarely last.
We work with people who have too much life to live to be held back by pain. People who are on their feet all day. Parents lifting babies, toddlers and kids. Grandparents who want to get down on the floor — and back up again — and actually play. Desk workers whose hips and shoulders have tensed up over years. Runners, cyclists, golfers, walkers — people who don’t want to give those things up, and shouldn’t have to.
Our job is to give you real answers, the right tools, and a realistic plan — so you’re never just waiting and wondering.
We have two specialist clinics.
Pain & Injury Clinic
Back & Hip Pain | For DESK PROFESSIONALS, ACTIVE PARENTS
If pain is stopping you sitting, standing, lifting, running, or sleeping — this is for you. Hands-on treatment with Kev, or Jo supported by yoga therapy and Ayurveda with Jo. We treat the whole pattern, not just where it hurts.

FOR Women 38+ | Fertility, Perimenopause, Miscarriage
For women 38+ who know something is off but keep being told their results are normal. Personalised Ayurveda consultations and yoga therapy — to regulate hormones, restore energy, and support your body through fertility, perimenopause, or recovery. Available in person or online across Scotland.

Join us in person at our studio. I believe yoga isn’t about learning more postures , it’s about helping you move in a way that improves your life off the yoga mat.

Hi, we’re Kev & Jo Buchan.
Between us we’ve had 4 surgeries, 18 broken bones (most of them Kev) and experienced grief losing our Mums. We know a lot about recovery and have rebuilt ourselves more than once.
We’ve been where you are
We know frustration firsthand from rugby injury and hip surgery to depression and loss. We’ve had to rebuild ourselves more than once.
Strength & Soul was born out of that deep frustration: being in pain and having no truly helpful guidance beyond ‘do these exercises, rest, and wait.’
What we offer isn’t just treatment; it’s an approach grown from our own challenging journeys and the proven results from years spent in our private clinic.
We don’t guess—we know what delivers long-term relief and genuine peace of mind. Our focus is building your confidence and giving you the tools to live your life fully, free from future flare-ups.
Jo is a Certified Yoga Therapist, Ayurveda Practitioner, and Master Level KCR Therapist with over 25 years of personal practice and 13 years of clinical experience. Kev holds Master Level KCR certification alongside Cupping and Ayurveda Massage qualifications. Between us, we’ve worked with hundreds of clients across South Lanarkshire, West Lothian, and online across Scotland.
Thanks Jo

Food provided by Kevin & Jo was delicious and the additional information about Ayurveda was so interesting and definitely something I want to look into further
