Testimonials

Before treatment: "Painful back, limited movement, restricted activity"

After treatment: "standing straighter, pain relieved, increased agility"

The difference that Osteopathy has made to me: "Awareness of how to look after my back and make it stronger despite advancing years!"

Managed to get appointment very quickly at this local practice, suffering with acute back pain. Jenny was reassuring, first appointment made a big difference and she also provided very practical exercise routine. Highly recommended.

have been seeing Jenny for a few weeks. and after 6 months of pointless physiotherapy i am now 99% better. she takes time to get to know your symptoms and treats you accordingly. i feel so much better. the whole treatment process has been 5*.
i highly recommend using the heath osteopathic practice
Jenny is kind and caring. I ended up going for further treatment on my knee after my shoulder "work"
the exercise sheets are a godsend too as can continue treating yourself at home to keep the issue's from returning.
