Graeme has been here forever! He first started working in Bexley High Street in 1972, when his family took over running the health food shop and now he runs one of the bigger UK osteopathy clinics. As a practice we are proud of the history we have in Bexley. He started training at the British School of Osteopathy in 1983 and qualified as an osteopath in 1987.
Osteopathic care is based on the individual needs of the patient and so varies depending on your age, fitness levels and diagnosis. Osteopaths use a wide range of gentle hands-on techniques that focus on releasing tension, stretching muscles and improving mobility.
This is often used together with exercise and helpful advice designed to relieve pain and aid you in your recovery, allowing you to return to work and normal activity as soon as possible.Your osteopath can provide you with a sick note if you do need to take time off from work. You do not need to consult your GP before you visit an osteopath, although you may wish to do so.

Osteopathy is a system of assessing, diagnosing, treating and preventing a wide range of health problems. Osteopaths are commonly known for treating back pain and postural problems including changes due to pregnancy, muscle or joint problems caused by driving or work strain, the pain of arthritis and minor sports injuries.
Parents visit osteopaths for many reasons to support their child's health. Children, like adults, can be affected by general joint and muscle issues, which is one of those reasons people visit an osteopath. As osteopathic care is based on the individual needs of the patient, it will vary depending on your child's age and the diagnosis.
Low back pain and pelvic pain are common in pregnancy. Figures showing complaints by pregnant women vary from as low as 25% in one study compared to as high as 80% in another. Obviously we don't treat the actual pregnancy, but we make proper allowance for it - just because you are pregnant, it doesn't mean that you can't have a stiff neck, tennis elbow or a painful knee.

Always find the staff friendly, professional, knowledgeable and happy to effectively treat my back issues, as well as provide guidance on how to minimise issues. Have been looked after them for many years and know I can rely on them to help whenever needed (whether for a major problem with my back, or just to carry out an 'MOT').
I saw Tina at the start of October 2021 to try to help me with pain in my forearms, hands and wrists. She was fantastic and has fingers made from reinforced concrete! I'm delighted to say I'm pain free for the first time in a couple of months : thanks Tina

I had lower back pain and was booked in within 2 days. I saw Alex who was excellent at explaining the problem and gave me exercises and helped me to ease the pain. I was also told I could ring and speak to Alex if I had any worries. An excellent service as well as reception staff who were very helpful and friendly. Excellent Covid regs in place with antibacterial readily
available. I would highly recommend this practice and Alex.

I have been very well looked after by Graeme and his team now for many years. They go above and beyond for their clients - phoning them in their own free time to check on their progress - help ensuring things like your car seat and work station are set up in the optimal position for you to recover and deal with long term issues. I cannot say enough good things about the professionalism and level of care given at this practice. As I am writing this during Covid I would like to also add they have very stringent covid protocols in place that make you feel very secure in receiving treatment at this

I called them when I was desperate and couldn't get an appointment at my usual place for a week. The reception were very helpful and I was booked in quickly. I have been visiting Alex regularly since June and find him knowledgeable and friendly. He has also treated my daughter for her neck issues. Thanks

Just seen Hannah for the first time and feel amazing, I have been suffering due to lockdown and not being able to have my regular massage so needed something a bit more in depth...
Will definitely be coming back to see her!
I have been to the Bexley osteopathic clinic before and always impressed with their professional, friendly service and very impressed with all the covid guidelines in place and felt very safe and comfortable.

As ever great service. Called for an urgent appointment and was seen the same day. The staff are warm, friendly and welcoming. The lovely Patrick was on holiday this week, so I met Darja for the 1st time, she spent a lot of time with me, assessing the issues and asking questions. I already feel much better. Thanks Bexley :)

I've been going to this clinic for 3 years now. They are a lovely and friendly bunch but most importantly, Patrick is an excellent osteopath. He really listens to my concerns and then takes the time to explain what is going on in my body. I always leave feel much better than when I arrived. Thank you!
