Principle Osteopath, Sports injuries and massage specialist

Picture


Ian studied at the prestigious British School of Osteopathy (BSO) and graduated with a Master of Osteopathy degree.  He is registered with both the General Osteopathic Council and British Osteopathic Association.

Ian came to Osteopathy later in life, after a successful career in the transport sector and automotive industry.  During his training at the BSO Ian worked in the general clinic, childrens’ clinic, expectant mothers’ clinic, HIV and AIDS clinic and within the NHS in both a GP practice and a hospital setting.  Ian describes this training, which took him 5 years and included over 1000 hours in a clinical setting, as life changing.

It is the diverse nature of Osteopathy and the ability to treat the patient as a whole and not just address the symptom that Ian finds most enjoyable and he strives to ensure that this is the holistic approach he applies to all his patients.  Osteopathy’s diverse range of techniques allows Ian to treat a wide variety of people from expectant mothers and babies through to the elderly and those who have suffered sporting or work related injuries.

Ian’s overriding aim is to provide the highest possible standard of healthcare and he manages this by tailoring treatment to you and your needs.

Patients find Ian to be relaxed and friendly, always happy to talk and explain what he is doing and he strives to make sure each patient is as relaxed as they can be while in his care.

Testimonials

I visited Ian for pain in my back and neck.  The pain stopped me riding my motorcycle and kite surfing.  I was amazed how quickly I felt better, it only took a couple of treatments to get me fixed.

I am now riding my motorcycle and kite surfing, in fact I recently spent the weekend over in europe on my motorbike, with no pain at all!
