Viva Health Clinics – Beyond Care, A Philosophy of Life

When it comes to health, addressing symptoms alone is never enough. It’s a matter of trust and a broader vision of what care truly means. It’s about understanding the person, their challenges, and their goals. This is the principle on which Viva Health Clinics was founded by Daniel and Rocco, two professionals with one shared mission: to transform how people experience their wellbeing.

Viva Health Clinics is not just a clinic. It is a place where expertise, empathy, and attention come together to deliver an experience that goes beyond traditional care. With locations in Folkestone and Ashford, it has become the trusted destination for those seeking professional and compassionate support that truly makes a difference.

A Meeting That Changed Everything

The story of Viva Health Clinics wasn’t born from a pre-planned strategy but from two professionals who recognised the need for something different.

Daniel began his professional journey through a special connection with an Irish osteopath who was his professor at university. Recognising Daniel’s potential, this mentor invited him to join his clinic in Folkestone. Here, Daniel honed his empathetic approach to care, learning to treat each patient as a unique individual. When his mentor decided to relocate, Daniel took over the clinic, carrying forward the lessons he had learned. What set him apart was his approach: he didn’t just treat patients but guided them, listened to them, and encouraged them to take control of their health.

Meanwhile, Rocco, after years of working in the NHS, became aware of the limitations of an often impersonal and overburdened system. He sought an environment where he could provide personalised care and establish genuine human connections with patients. This experience taught him the importance of seeing each patient as a unique individual rather than just another clinical case. Learn more about Dr. Rocco (link to personal page).

When their paths crossed, it wasn’t just the start of a professional collaboration – it marked the beginning of a shared mission. Together, they envisioned a clinic where care wasn’t dictated by time constraints or impersonal systems but driven by empathy, expertise, and a sincere desire to make a difference.

Folkestone: Where It All Began

When Daniel took over the Folkestone clinic, he had a clear goal: to create an environment where every patient felt heard and supported. He knew that success would depend not just on professional competence but on building a relationship of trust with the local community.

Collaborations with local organisations like Dynamics Gym strengthened ties with the area, supporting athletes, families, and individuals of all ages. However, the real driving force behind the clinic’s success was word-of-mouth – fuelled by the satisfaction of patients who recognised Viva Health Clinics as something different: a place where every treatment is personalised, every word is sincere, and every result is meaningful.

Despite their growing success, they remain committed to accessibility. They have maintained fair pricing and ensured short waiting times, providing a tangible alternative to the long delays often associated with the NHS. For Daniel and Rocco, Folkestone is more than just a clinic – it’s a symbol of what care should be: a balance of professionalism, empathy, and a lasting commitment.

Ashford: A New Chapter, the Same Mission

The opening of the Ashford clinic marked a natural evolution for Viva Health Clinics. It wasn’t just about expanding their presence but about bringing the same philosophy of care to a broader community.

Ashford isn’t just another location; it’s an extension of their commitment to providing personalised, value-driven treatments. Here, Daniel and Rocco have also established partnerships with local organisations such as the Jasmine Vardimon Company, offering specialised care to professional dancers and artists to manage injuries and maintain peak performance. This collaboration highlights their dedication not just to individual patients but also to the artistic and athletic communities.

Whether it’s relieving chronic pain, treating sports injuries, providing post-trauma rehabilitation, or improving overall quality of life, Ashford’s mission is clear: to continue offering a place where patients feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.

The Philosophy of Viva Health Clinics

What makes Viva Health Clinics truly unique is not just the experience that Daniel and Rocco bring but the way they live their values every single day:

  • Empathy as a Foundation: Both founders believe that healing begins with understanding. They take the time to listen, ensuring that every patient feels welcomed and valued.
  • A Relentless Commitment to Excellence: With his background as a university lecturer, Daniel embodies a dedication to continuous improvement. His personal experience with pain and recovery has shaped him into a professional who goes beyond treatments, creating authentic connections with his patients.
  • Pragmatism and Adaptability: Rocco complements Daniel’s precision with his ability to tailor treatments to each patient’s unique circumstances. His transparency and honesty set him apart, building strong and lasting relationships.
  • Education as a Tool for Healing: They don’t just treat symptoms; they empower patients with the knowledge and tools to care for themselves, ensuring long-lasting results.
  • Accessibility: Wellbeing should never be a privilege. Viva Health Clinics ensures rapid treatments and fair pricing, offering a practical alternative to the long waiting times of public healthcare systems.

This combination of values guides every decision, transforming each treatment into a shared journey toward wellbeing.
