In 1993, osteopathy became the first major complementary health care profession to be accorded statutory recognition under the 1993 Osteopaths Act.

Only those practitioners able to show that they have been in safe and competent practice of osteopathy will be allowed onto the register. David Barton is a member of the Institute of Osteopathy (iO) and registered with the General Osteopathic Council. The iO is the largest membership body of osteopaths in the UK and works to unite, support, develop and promote the osteopathic profession for the benefit of patient care.
Services
Osteopaths are trained to recognise and treat many causes of pain. Osteopathy is an established system of diagnosis and manual treatment, which is recongnised by the British Medical Association as a discrete clinical discipline. Osteopathy uses many of the diagnostic procedures used in conventional medical assessment and diagnosis.
At Ryde Osteopathic Practice, we pride ourselves on our thorough and caring approach. Whatever or wherever the pain, we will carry out a comprehensive examination, paying careful consideration to the way in which the patient moves and stands. As well as a complete range of osteopathic treatments, we also provide professional advice on ergonomics, nutrition and exercise.

I attended in near desperation following a whiplash / head and neck injury.
I had disturbing, bizarre jangling nerve pain in my hands which was beginning to frighten me half to death.
After one treatment the symptoms are so much improved! I’m happy and relieved. I realise I’ll likely need more treatments, but I didn’t imagine I’d feel this much better so quickly.
THANK YOU DAVID 😊🙏

Suffering from a lower back issue just before Christmas, I visited Dave to see if he could help the quite severe pain. Dave was able to squeeze me in just prior to the festive season. He did advise me that I may need a further appointment to get everything back in the right place. I felt so much more comfortable after session 1, but session 2 really got me back to normal. Thanks Dave, Happy new Year

Can't recommend David enough. Very genuine and absolutely brilliant at what he does. I first went to David with a bad back which was aptly rectified and swiftly followed by a recommendation regarding a slipped disc in my neck. Little did I know that the disc was the root cause of the migraines I had been suffering with for the past twenty plus years! Forever grateful and highly recommend!

I first met David 11 years ago when I crawled into his surgery with a slipped disc. An hour later I was walking out unaided. I have been a patient ever since and have an appointment every six months for a check… up, even though it means a trip over from Portsmouth. My wife is also a patient of Davids. I cannot recommend him highly enough and look forward to catching up and putting the world to rights in the future.
