Osteopathy can treat a wide range of complaints and is suitable for all the family, babies, children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. It is a hands on approach to healthcare which looks at the person as an individual in order to identify where the problem stems from, how to decrease symptoms effectively and bring the body back into balance.
I specialise in paediatric osteopathy - that is, osteopathy for babies and children. I work with patients with specific needs such as those with disabilities, learning difficulties, and have worked in NHS premature baby units and on paediatric wards. Cranial osteopathy is my main treatment of choice as I find it both gentle and effective - I specialise treating children, pregnant and post partum mums for whom cranial osteopathy works well.

I initially trained as an actress which gave me an understanding of posture, movement and the benefits of physical fitness. An episode of severe back pain led me to seek osteopathic treatment which was so beneficial that it inspired me to change career and train as an osteopath. After graduating from The British School of Osteopathy in 1999, I went to work with Stuart Korth in Tunbridge Wells.
Osteopathy has commonly been known as a manual therapy for back pain. Actually osteopathy can successfully help many functional problems of the body effecting the musculoskeletal system and internal organs. It is a recognised form of complementary healthcare. Osteopaths use an holistic approach to how they view the body.
Osteopathy can help a wide range of conditions, including low back pain, neck pain, joint pain, limb pain, headache, neuralgia, digestive problems, circulatory problems, anxiety and stress related problems and much more. The treatment is very effective for all ages and for people from all sorts of different occupations, from manual workers, to office workers, to dancers, musicians, singers, parents and sports people.
The osteopathic assessment looks at you as an individual in order to understand why the problem has developed. The treatment itself is gentle, as I have found these types of techniques to be very effective. The first appointment will take about an hour. I will take a case history of the complaint and a general medical history.

Emily has brought very positive change to my son’s wellbeing with just a few treatments. Several heath professionals and midwives recommended that my son be treated with cranial osteopathy soon after he was born via assisted delivery. Not knowing much about this type of treatment, I had low expectations but believed that it was worth a try to help my son feel calmer and hopefully settle more easily for sleep. Emily used the utmost respect and care with my son in assessing him and noticed he easily startled and had a lot of tension in his neck, jaw, and head. To my surprise, even after one treatment

Five years ago I had a head, neck and shoulder injury after falling off my snow board at high speed. Over the last five years I visited different doctors but still had a wide range of symptoms which very much worsened my quality of life( headache, wryneck and restricted shoulder movement). One of the doctors suggested I try cranial osteopathy . Now it is three weeks since I found Emily on the internet and she already helped me a lot. My headaches have reduced to the minimum, the neck is practically straight and the shoulder has a much wider range of movement. I am so grateful to Emily for this

Emily has been treating me for the last 3 years. I first contacted her when i was pregnant with my daughter and having a lot of issues. Even after one session with her I immediately felt the difference. I carried on seeing her throughout my pregnancy and beyond and currently pregnant again she has bee helping me with various issues during this pregnancy also. She's a very calm caring influence and I always feel immediately better after treatments with her. I intend to carry on using her for the foreseeable future and would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone.

Emily has been helping my children for the last 13 years. She is an exceptionally talented Osteopath and I recommend her to everyone I meet who would benefit from her services. My son has idiopathic scoliosis, which will require an surgery to correct, but from the onset of it Emily has treated him weekly to relieve the pressure on his back. He would not be able to cope with school if he didn't have these regular treatments. She is kind and so very caring, I don't know what I would have done without her magic hands over the last 13 years!
