Osteopathic treatment involves the gentle manipulation of the body to bring relief and improve quality of life for patients. Cotswold Osteopaths is a vibrant, family practice based in the Cotswolds, and Jane Hartley and Guy Beresford pride themselves on being able to make a difference for patients of all ages.
To date, our youngest patient was just seven days old, and the eldest, one hundred and three years old. We are able to help such a diverse age group by using a variety of techniques from cranial-sacral osteopathy to manipulation, massage and exercise advice wherever appropriate. Cotswold Osteopaths evolved in it's original form in Cheltenham under the practitioner John Carpenter in 1947.
