Liverpool SME investor River Capital announces ‘five-figure’ investment into a health and wellbeing clinic

Liverpool SME investment specialist River Capital has announced a five-figure investment into health wellbeing clinic Synergy Health.

This funding comes from NPIF II – River Capital & GC Business Finance Smaller Loans, which is managed by River Capital & GC Business Finance as part of the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund II.

It will enable Dr Christine Hagon, founder and owner of Synergy Health, which is based in Kendal, to purchase essential clinical equipment. Dr Hagon, who is a McTimoney Chiropractor with over 25 years of healthcare experience, opened the clinic in 2022

She wanted to combine her range of complementary treatments with those of other like-minded therapists. It provides a focal point within the local community for whole body health for patients and their animal companions. 

The funding will also support job creation within the healthcare sector, with two new full-time positions to be created during the loan term.

Synergy Health operates from six treatment rooms offering a range of services including chiropractic care, physiotherapy, reflexology, yoga therapy, oncology support, homeopathy, cranial sacral therapy, light therapy and pregnancy and paediatric services.

Jonathan Nelson, investment manager at River Capital, added: “Synergy Health perfectly exemplifies the type of innovative business we’re proud to support through NPIF II.

“Dr Christine’s vision of creating an integrated health and wellbeing centre that complements NHS services while providing high quality private care is exactly what communities like Kendal need.”
