Welcome to the world of osteopathy, a safe and effective hands-on approach to enhancing your body's biomechanical function, mobility, and overall health.
We strongly uphold the traditional values of osteopathy, where we recognize the body's natural ability to heal itself and work as a unit.
Our aim is to support your body to function optimally and promote natural healing processes.
As osteopaths, we are committed to providing you with friendly and approachable care. We take the time to help you understand the underlying mechanics, physiological changes, and functional adaptations that are occurring within your body.
Our treatment sessions involve a blend of hands-on techniques, as well as guidance on practical adaptations you can make to your daily life to aid in your recovery and promote better health and wellbeing.
At our osteopathic practice, we are here to support you every step of the way on your journey to better health.

Training and Registration
Osteopaths are regulated by law and recognised as an allied health profession by NHS England. This gives them a similar status to dentists or physiotherapists and guarantees the equivalent high level of care. By law, an osteopath must be registered with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) to practise in the UK. Before an osteopath can obtain registration, they must attain specialist degree-level training, either a Bachelor of Science (BSc.) or integrated Masters (MOst.), plus complete over 1000 hours of clinical placements (direct patient contact time).
To maintain their registration with GOsC, which is renewed annually, osteopaths must meet mandatory continuous professional development (CPD): keeping skills and knowledge up-to-date and maintaining high standards of professional development.
