At Advanced Back Care Clinics in Perth and Dunfermline you will benefit from an experienced and no-nonsense approach in all aspects of osteopathy by qualified practitioner Ken Blakeley. We commonly see a wide range of people from all walks of life including builders, golfers, nurses, social workers, office workers and those who have repetitive jobs - often those who spend a lot of time at computers.
Even if you have sufferred for a long time and tried many different therapies, you are likely to benefit from osteopathy. Your osteopath will firstly ask you a number of detailed questions about your past medical history. You will also be asked about work and hobbies, since habitual actions often result in stresses that can lead to injury.

Osteopathy is a focused and direct therapy of treating damaged parts of the body such as muscles, ligaments, nerves and joints. When the body is balanced and efficient, just like a well-tuned engine, it will function with the minimum of wear and tear, leaving more energy for living. As a result, it is a criminal offence, liable to prosecution, to describe oneself as an osteopath in the UK unless registered with the GOsC.

I have been suffering with back pain for many years and have been seeing Ken now for nearly three months. Ken is very knowledgeable and when providing treatment you pick up bits of his wisdom in terms with regards to diet, exercise and general well being. His treatment has helped me enormously and would recommend his services. He also saved me a visit to a neurosurgeon when I had numbness in my fingers.

I have no hesitation recommending Ken because he is a very knowledgeable and reputable practioner - and his treatment works. Ken asks a lot of questions about lifestlye, work and activity levels to get to the root cause of the pain and gives advice on what you can do to help yourself. Ken eased my back pain many times but urged me to reduce the time spent at a computer and to do exercises that would strenghten my core. When I eventually followed his advice my back pain disappeared and has not reoccurred. I’ve spent a lot of money on back pain treatments over the years before finding Ken and I

Been to see Ken today for the 6th time. He is excellent in what he does providing fantastic treatment as well as giving great advice. Originally I thought I had a problem in my back however, Ken explained the problem was in my hip which was deferring pain to my back. This diagnosis was later confirmed when my GP sent me for a X-ray. Ken tries his best to see me at a time that suits me best (busy diary) and this is either in his Perth or Dunfermline clinic.

I've had a long history of lower back, upper back and neck problems, and over the years have seen various osteopaths. Ken takes a different approach to most others in that he spends time getting your deep tissue muscles to relax. He has also helped me with various other injuries to arms and legs over the years. I would highly recommend Ken and his technique to anyone. His treatment is certainly effective for me and I always appreciate his ongoing advice and suggestions such as stretches to perform.

I visited this business in 2017 for a new patient consultation and highly regretted it. The gentleman who i met with was an extremely unpleasant, arrogant and rude man who sat and read out questions from a sheet about my health and lifestyle in a monotonous and disinterested fashion, avoiding all eye contact and exhaling long dramatic sighs whenever i failed to give him the answer he wanted. He seemed to relish every opportunity to belittle or insult you, which for me this day included telling me my modest exercise was pathetic, poking my muscles and saying 'there's just no muscle tone there at

Amazing guy. I have suffered in pain for over 10 years visiting various professionals that haven't helped , with regular work from Ken he has made a massive difference to my every day life and I can't thank him enough. Would highly recommend his professional approach and wouldn't hesitate to tell everyone about him.
He was thorough with his questions and explanations and to the point for what I needed to do.
No-one has been able to help me like he has and I thank him. I will continue any maintenance check ups and put in to practice his advise. Anyone that is looking to really fix themselves need
