What is Osteopathy?
Osteopaths treat each person as an individual.
Osteopathy is a natural approach to health It is a way of looking at and treating damaged parts of the body such as muscles, ligaments, nerves and joints. Osteopaths treat a variety of common conditions including repetitive strain injury, postural problems caused by driving or work strain, the pain of arthritis and sports injuries. Osteopathy may alleviate those types of aches, pains and headaches arising from dysfunction within the musculo-skeletal system that can result from either chronic conditions or acute injuries in people of all ages.
I was born and raised in Zimbabwe, where I qualified as a doctor and worked as a GP for four years before coming to London in 1989.
After training as an Osteopath at the London College of Osteopathic Medicine (LCOM), I started off working in London, then Cambridgeshire and Norfolk as well as being a senior tutor at the LCOM.
I started a clinic in Montrose in November 2005, travelling up at weekends from Cambridgeshire and then made Montrose our home in 2006.
Normally the first person patients speak to at the clinic, I will try to answer any questions you may have, make appointments, and try to help in any way I can. I am also the person who tries to confirm your appointment a day or two before.
I’ve lived all over the UK and several places abroad, settling in Montrose in 2006.
