Services
Our team of caring professionals are here to provide you with the highest standards of care. Shona has been practising Osteopathy in Perth since 2009 after graduating from the British College of Osteopathic Medicine. She is passionate about promoting Osteopathy as a modality for getting to the root of the symptoms presented and firmly believes that the pro-active approach offered by Osteopathy offers a viable alternative to long-term medication.
In addition to our in-house professionals we are a part of a wider network of external professionals, all of whom are known to our team and many of whom have worked in our clinic before. They include acupuncturists, homeopaths, shiatsu and reiki practitioners, reflexologists, podiatrists and sports massage therapists.
Osteopaths identify, assess, and treat the body's structures and rhythms using a gentle, hands-on approach. This fundamental technique is called osteopathic palpation. They spend many years developing the very sensitive sense of touch they need to master this technique. Our treatment rooms are designed to be private and relaxing enabling you to be comfortable with your environment.
Osteopathy is a way of detecting, treating and preventing health problems by the use of gentle mobilisations, manipulations, massage and the stretching of your muscles and joints. The treatment is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the healthy function of their bones, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues and that the body has the innate ability to heal itself.
If you are curious to find out more about CST as a modality and how it can help you then having a session with our student practitioner could well be helpful for you. The sessions last roughly an hour and whilst allowing the practitioner to hone their skills, these treatments will also be very beneficial for you too.

Had an amazing Osteopath session with Shona today. She gave me a consultation to find out about my needs and tailored my session to support stress relief, emotional healing and back ache using craniosacral and Osteopathic methods which I absolutely loved. During the session I fell into a deep relaxation whilst my body was handled with gentle care and ease. This clinic is friendly and very professional, I felt so welcomed. Enjoyed it so much that I’ve made another appointment.

This practice deserves a 5* review in my opinion! From the warm, welcoming greeting by the front of house staff, through to the professionalism of the practitioners. I can highly recommend Shona McKay who has treated me a few times this year.
I recently took up golfing but wasn’t prepared for the back muscle spasms that are sold as a ‘package’ when you sign on the dotted line!😩; throw in fibromyalgia, tinnitus and a good dollop of Covid hysteria that creeps into those little grey cells, sending you further down the pan....and Voila! Shona is extremely knowledgable in her field and treats

Very knowledgeable. Friendly. Efficient. Knew their stuff. Happy to fully share their findings. Would have got a 5 out of 5 if pain eased a bit more via even a little muscle manipulation too as was still a little sore even after treatment but certainly better, just not as great as I have gotten elsewhere. Will definitely return though.better than average for knowledge

Thanks so much to Shona for the work she did on my back. I no longer have any pain which is a huge relief after suffering in agony. Shona cared for me in a very professional and caring manner and put me very much at ease with her friendly manner. All staff at the practice were warm and friendly and I would recommend Shona to anyone suffering in pain.

Excellent service from Shona at this clinic. She takes a great deal of time to get to know your history and is very thorough in her treatment sessions which can take up to 45 mins initially but a bit less when you've been before. I wish I'd found this lady years ago. I wasted a lot of money on bad therapists before, thankfully no more.
