Osteopathy is a whole-body approach to health

Many people think osteopaths only treat backs. That is just one part of what we do. We can support you with a wide range of conditions.

MORE THAN JUST BACK PAIN

Sports injuries

Assessment and hands-on treatment to get you moving and back to activity.

Headaches and migraines

Easing neck and upper back tension that can trigger headaches.

Work and posture strain

Practical help for desk, driving and repetitive-task discomfort.

Joint and muscle pain

Treatment for stiff, painful joints and tight, overworked muscles.

General tension

Relief for everyday tightness, stiffness and discomfort.

Long-term conditions

Supportive care to manage symptoms and improve daily movement.

You're in safe hands

All our osteopaths are fully qualified, insured and engaged in Continual Professional Development, so you receive the highest standard of care.

A holistic approach

We look at the body as a whole, not just the area that hurts. By addressing the root cause, we relieve current symptoms and help prevent future ones.

Patient-centred care

Every treatment is tailored to you, your age, your diagnosis and your goals. We explain what we find and agree a plan together.

    My first Osteopath treatment with Mellissa for a lower back issue. Mellissa explained the treatment, a plan going forward. It was a pleasant experience and looking forward to my next appointment next week.

    As this was my first appointment with Sam after my RTC injury, I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, I felt reassured, clearly informed throughout, and noticed rapid relief from the tension. I know this will be an ongoing process, and I’ve already scheduled my next session. Thank you, Sam.

    The treatment and customer service has been amazing. I had been suffering with back pain for so many years, but in a matter of a few sessions it's now so much better. I would fully recommend Sam and his team.

    I visited the clinic because I was experiencing sharp pains in my knee which was preventing me from carrying simple tasks like sitting and walking up and down stairs without pain. Melissa Bellamy was able to identify the cause of the pain and provided me some exercises and a treatment plan which has stopped the knee pain altogether. I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone in need of Osteopathy.

    Ive been visiting Mellissa now for around 6 months after a soft tissue injury in my head. I noticed a difference in how my injury felt during my first treatment which lasted for several days after. Ive continued to have treatment with Mellissa who I would say has had a major positive impact on the healing process for me. I have also found Mellissa to be gentle, kind, caring and understanding every time I saw her. I continue to see Mellissa now for other Osteo treatments as and when needed. For someone like me who had never really heard of Osteopaths 6 months ago, i would highly recommend Osteopathy treatments to anyone.

    I had a very enjoyable and productive session with osteopath Justine! I needed some pain relief while waiting for knee replacement surgery and she appreciated this and geared the treatment accordingly. I came away feeling much better and with information about the section of the Versus Arthritis website most useful to me and how best to use it. I must add that the whole decor of the clinic, inside and out, is very fresh and calming so the environment complements the therapy!

    Mellissa put me at ease straight away taking time to discuss my issues and give me the correct treatment plan that I am already feeling the benefit from today would highly recommend

    I came to Sam with a running injury which had developed into potential nerve tingling and he was great at reliving the pain from with only a couple sessions. Not only did I feel an instant relief but he was also able to advise on next steps such as incorporating certain stretches and helped me get back to exercising. Extremely grateful and thank you again!

    I have used The Well Clinic for many years and they always provide first class practitioners. I developed Sciatica symptoms for the first time after doing a few days of decorating. I made an appointment with Justin Knowles of Birmingham Osteopathy who now provide a clinic at The Well. She was very professional in diagnosing the source of the pain and provided immediate care and relief, putting me on the path to recovery. I will be returning for any further treatments and support. Thank you Justine x
