About
I trained at the University of Surrey Institute in Osteopathic Medicine and graduated in 2012. I have been running a private practice from home.
As well as treating, I promote awareness of how Osteopathy can help with your health by providing personal talks to communities and groups. If you would like more information click here.
People often ask do I enjoy what I do, I tend to smile because I am passionate about Osteopathy and have immense appreciation to those whom I have learnt from. Once a patient is away from the pain & discomfort, I enjoy seeing the results and hearing about the positive differences they have noticed in their life.
I also offer other complementary therapies so if you are simply looking for a more professional therapeutic difference to standard massages, MMW Osteopath is the place to book!
Therapies available:
​

Western Medical Acupuncture
Antenatal/Postnatal Massage
Baby Massage & Learn Baby Massage

The Practice
I run a warm, friendly, fully insured private practice based in Thornton Heath, Croydon.
I aim for your visit to be informative and therapeutic, and in certain cases, will use an exercise programme to help you regain strength and mobility.
At our practice we are GDPR compliant, the newly revised General data protection Act 2018 can be downloaded for your viewing
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a Healthcare profession which focuses on diagnosis, treatment, prevention and rehabilitation of the Musculoskeletal disorders and other related disorders.

Osteopaths use a variety of specialised techniques in order to bring change to how your body behaves and functions; you can find more information regarding techniques and terminology in the Glossary.
​
There are different approaches in Osteopathy; Structural, Classical, Visceral and Cranial Osteopathy. Although they may differ, the aim of your treatments are the same; to reduce discomfort, increase mobility, manage pain control, encourage balance, ease and repair.
Here at MMW Osteopath I have been trained using all four approaches. Your treatment plans are tailored to your bodies specific needs.
