Services
SJMS Well-Being is run by Susannah Jane Money-Schenk. Susannah is a fully qualified osteopath and graduated from the British School of Osteopathy in 2009 before going on to complete a post graduate certificate in Animal Osteopathy at the Osteopathic Centre for Animals. Susannah is also qualified in sports massage therapy, acupuncture, pre and post natal coaching and CrossFit coaching all of which help her to help you be the best you can be.
Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions within the body. An osteopath will use a combination of touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage to increase the range of movement at joints, reduce muscle tension and to improve the blood and nerve supply to tissues.
Sports massage is a form of massage involving the manipulation of soft tissue to benefit a person engaged in regular physical activity. It is designed to assist in correcting problems and imbalances in soft tissue that are caused from repetitive and strenuous physical activity and trauma. The application of massage before or after an event may improve performance and aid recovery.
Equine osteopaths use a combination of massage, joint manipulation and articulation, and stretching to help improve a horse's structure and therefore function. Horses are athletes - whether they are your happy hack or a top-end race horse. Their health must be taken seriously including their musculo-skeletal health.
I get asked this frequently and my answer starts with 'not much!' The main difference, however, is in how they are introduced to their particular specialism. Chiropractors, physiotherapists and osteopaths spend between four and five years practising treatment methods and techniques, studying anatomy and medical subjects, working through conditions and then developing their clinical reasoning skills and management protocols under supervision.

Always feel 100X more mobile after a treatment with SJMS, very reliable, relatable and sympathetic. Always able to solve any problem my body is having and will give tips to help make me more supple in between treatments. She also looks after my pony, and does an amazing job at keeping him on top form for his competitions. Wouldn't recommend anyone else!

If anyone has struggled as much as I have with finding a decent Osteopath/Sports Massage Therapist/Acupuncturist...look no further!
I have suffered with back and neck pain/headaches for over 15 years and have seen several Osteopaths/Chiropractors/hospital specialists over the years but nothing has compared with the service I have received from Susannah. She's so dedicated and passionate about helping people and animals...she doesn't just "fix me" temporarily like all the other professionals I've seen... she really goes out of her way to get to the root of the problem and has advised me tremendously

Susannah Jane Money-Schenk has spent the last 5 months fixing me and nailed it! Our first session was a comprehensive diagnosis which involved me moving around and identifying exactly what needing addressing. We then spent the next few months correcting movement patterns and strengthening my absent glutes. Susannah was fantastic, stayed in touch the entire time and adapted my rehab according to my progress. Highly recommended! Thanks Su :)

Susannah is fantastic. Attention to detail is on point. She has created me a rider fitness programme and is helping straighten me out and strengthen my weak points. Am 3 weeks in and noticing a massive difference already. She has explained everything in detail and anything that I've struggled with she's been on the end of the phone to help and provide a solution.
Highly recommend.
Thank you xx

Have been in pain and unable to stand up straight for almost a week! Had an appointment here today and now feel so much better. The Osteopath explained what she was doing and why so I could understand the cause of the problem and, at the end of the session, I was shown a number of exercises to do that will help alleviate my back issues. Would definitely recommend SJMS.
