About me

John is a senior osteopathic practitioner with 20 years of post qualification experience. He completed his training with the British College of Osteopathic Medicine (BCOM), graduating in 1998 with a B.Sc(Hons)OstMed degree in Osteopathic Medicine, and returned there to teach both technique classes and in the student clinic for five years from 2000.

He qualified as a Cranial Osteopath with the Sutherland Society in 1999. John also holds a diploma in Naturopathy ND, which qualifies him to advise on dietary and lifestyle issues. His osteopathic work is further supported through the integration of Medical (Western) Acupuncture techniques into treatments where appropriate.

While working widely on general issues and with all ages, John has also gained significant experience treating mothers and infants while working in a dedicated paediatric clinic. He's observations of the significant role that stress can play in affecting the wellbeing of both mother and baby led him to write an article for the local National Childbirth Trust NCT in 2006 entitled "Psychological Aspects of Infantile Colic".
