Services
Osteopathy is a regulated, highly effective form of hands on medicine that focuses primarily on diagnosing and treating complaints of the musculoskeletal system. Osteopaths work to rebalance the structure and function of the body, not simply treating the presenting problem but looking holistically at all the factors contributing to the body's state of disturbed health.
Here at The Monkton Farleigh Osteopathic Practice we strive to make you feel comfortable and relaxed when attending all appointments, but particularly on your first visit to us when everything is new. Knowing what to expect can can help overcome any concerns you may have. If you have any further questions, would like reassurance, or are unsure if osteopathy can help, please give us a ring and we can chat it through with you.
Osteopathy is considered a science and an art. Once we have finished our 4 years of thorough training each practitioner takes their learning and develops their own style of treatment and care based on their interests, experiences and post graduate courses - so no two osteopaths are the same.

Whilst osteopaths treat all joints of the body and their associated muscles and ligaments our techniques are particularly effective on the spine and we are therefore well known for successfully treating back and neck pain, especially if combined with exercise prescription. This is endorsed in the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines.
Babies skeletons are softer than an adults with the need for the head to be malleable enough to squeeze through the birth canal during the birthing process. This malleability and the elasticity of their tissues means that they are very receptive to osteopathic treatment, which involves a combination of very gentle techniques including cranial osteopathy, massage, stretching and joint release.

Katie is a hugely experienced and very professional Osteopath with a great deal of knowledge. As well as treating the issue in hand, she also takes a wider more holistic view, and encourages exercises and stretching where necessary. I feel very safe in her hands, and hence safe and confident when referring my own clients and friends on to her.
She has made a huge difference to my movement and wellbeing and I honestly cannot recommend her highly enough.

I took my 15 week old baby to Monkton Farleigh Osteopathic Practice, as she was suffering with colic and seemed very unsettled. My daughter was seen by Sian who was absolutely fantastic, so professional and very friendly. Sian was so gentle and knew exactly how to treat Isla. Sian is very knowledgeable and has a calming approach. I could not recommend her enough!

I have been visiting Katie's practice for several years now, mainly for a general MOT and to check body alignment. I am convinced that Katie has saved me from serious injury. i started going to Katie originally, for a frozen shoulder, the prognosis was long and surgery had been floated as an option. With Katie's great skill and expertise I avoided surgery and my arm and shoulder are stronger than ever. Many Thanks Katie you are very special..

Katie made a huge difference when I took my daughter to see her about sleep problems. The results were noticeable straight away and it's reassuring to know that there's somewhere I can go for help if it reoccurs. Katie was able to put her at ease and it was a therapeutic experience from start to finish. Thank you!

Katie has been an absolute life saver with helping me control my migraines. She has such a professional and calming approach and I cannot praise her intuitiveness and manual therapy skills enough. She always pitches her treatments at the right level for the symptoms and gets quick and effective results. She offers good advice which allows long term benefits from her treatments. Highly recommended!

I first visited in February this year and have received great treatment from Lucy.... I went on a weekly basis to start, it's now every 4-6 weeks.
I'm really pleased as my back and neck are much improved. In summary I'd recommend the practise to anyone; it's the best one I've visited and it's located in lovely surroundings too!

Katie has a warm and compassionate approach to all she does, and most importantly she is an exceptional osteopath! By some margin the best I have had the pleasure of being treated by. I have been to seen her for numerous complaints over the years and she has resolved my issues every time. On a practical note having evening appointments is also incredibly helpful.

I have been using Katie as my Osteopath for several years now and have recommended her time and time again to friends and family.

The best osteopath in the area by far!! Katie is so warm and friendly, and not to mention marvellous at her craft. She has done wonders for my back/neck, as well as giving me advice on how to improve the way I use my body and build up strength to help protect my back/neck. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services; I really can't speak highly enough of her!!
