On consulting with the relevant public bodies and in line with other health care providers our current infection control measures will remain in force. Please wear a face - covering on entering the building, use the patient sanitising station and give other patients and staff space. Please do not arrive early for your appointments we aim to direct you into your consultancy room rather than have people mingling in the waiting area.

Services
Consultation and discussion of your problem, examination, evaluation and diagnosis with an outline of treatment and/or referral. We can refer for other investigations; such as X-ray, MRI or to a GP, specialist or another appropriate practitioner. You will be expected to remove some clothing, so please come appropriately dressed.
Stowmarket Osteopaths is a group practice of osteopathic practitioners who are professionally and fully clinically trained to maintain high standards of osteopathy and professional excellence. They are continually developing and enhancing their skills through further postgraduate training and clinical teaching.
Osteopathy is a safe and natural therapy, which focuses on the framework of the body consisting of the bones, ligaments, muscles and connective tissues, which support the 'soft bits' inside that keep you alive. Osteopaths assess the condition of this musculo-skeletal supporting system looking for areas of weakness, imbalance and excessive strain.
A first consultation with an osteopath is similar to that with any Registered Medical Practitioner. The osteopath will want to know how the symptoms began and the factors that affect them. They will ask a series of questions, which may at the time seem irrelevant. The answers to these questions will enable your osteopath to build a detailed picture of you and provide a diagnosis for your problem that is unique to you.
By Car: the practice has its own parking ( the row of cars at the rear are normally staff cars so please park in front of them ), as well as 'on-street' parking in Childer Road or 'pay and display' parking in Iliffe Way. If your appointment is at the StowHealth Centre, this has its own large car park.

Wow! So pleased to have been recommended this practice for help with our newborn who had a tight jaw and was struggling to breastfeed. We saw Simon who is so kind, caring and gentle. He recognised the issues and was so insightful with tips to help. After waking from a big sleep I tried breastfeeding again and the result was amazing. Our little one latched on so much easier and her mouth opened alot wider, it also didn't hurt! So happy and thankful to Simon.

Toby is absolutely fantastic! Always takes the time to listen to my aches and pains and treats accordingly, he is a lovely aporoachable person who is easy to talk to which makes the hour fly past! I often go a while between appointments due to finances but he's always there ready and waiting with a smile on his face, to make me feel a million times better!
Thanks Toby.

Cannot recommend enough. I called yesterday with acute jaw pain. Dentist and Doctor had ruled out any underlying issues. This was a mechanical issue and I was alternating ibuprofen and co-codamol which were barely reducing pain.
I was given an appointment same day and after one treatment I am almost painkiller free. Toby was so caring and gentle and generous with his time. Thank you! I am confident that with further treatment my issue can be resolved and managed drug free.
