Services
Osteopathy
Osteopathy restores bodily function through soft tissue manipulation, joint mobilisation, and targeted manipulation techniques. Our practitioners address musculoskeletal pain, postural imbalances, and mobility issues across all age groups. Treatment plans integrate postural advice and rehabilitation exercises to prevent recurrence while promoting natural healing processes.
Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial osteopathy employs subtle pressure techniques to address stress-related conditions and structural imbalances. Particularly effective for infants, children, and pregnant women, this approach alleviates birth trauma, colic, and pregnancy-related discomfort. Practitioners use gentle manipulations to improve cranial rhythm and enhance nervous system function.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy combines manual therapy with exercise-based rehabilitation for musculoskeletal injuries and chronic conditions. Our specialists treat sports injuries, post-surgical recovery cases, and occupational strain through tailored programmes. Treatment includes joint mobilisation, soft tissue massage, and progressive strengthening exercises to restore mobility and function.
Podiatry
Podiatry services address foot health concerns including nail surgery, biomechanical assessments, and verrucae treatment. Our specialists manage diabetic foot complications and provide gait analysis for posture-related issues. Custom orthotics and footwear advice complement treatments for corns, calluses, and sports-related foot injuries.
Canine Osteopathy
Canine osteopathy addresses joint mobility issues, arthritis, and post-injury recovery in dogs. Using gentle manipulative techniques, practitioners improve mobility and alleviate pain in dogs of all breeds and ages. Treatment focuses on musculoskeletal health, supporting athletic performance and enhancing quality of life for senior dogs.

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit on Saturday. Didn't really know what to expect but the lovely Emma made me feel really relaxed and explained everything to me really well. I've been feeling much better in myself since my visit and have really noticed a difference. I'll definitely be coming back again when I need some extra treatment

I saw Lizzy for a sports massage this week. I was a bit nervous but she was really friendly and informative. I told her I was doing Ride 100 on Sunday and she prepped my muscles accordingly. Highly recommended!

I first visited Lisa when she worked in Dorking Road, Epsom and followed her to the Ashtead practice because the treatments I received for back pain, shoulder tension and headaches were hugely beneficial to my quality of life. When I had my children, I took them to the Ashtead clinic for osteopathic treatment for all sorts of ailments - birth… trauma, sleep problems, colic for example and they always came away calmer and happier. Now 19 and 16, osteopathy is their first thought for relief from exam tension, football injuries and the like. I can highly recommend all of the team, as I have

I met Lisa when she was working in Epsom, I had awful back pain and numb legs, I had been to the hospital & they sent me for physiotherapy which made my problems worse. Lisa was amazing & after a short time things got better for me. Lisa then moved to Ashtead when I was expecting my first baby, when he was only a few days old I noticed he had a… huge bump on his head !!! He was sent for x rays & there was nothing wrong & the hospital said it may be worth a visit to a osteopath. I thought oh Lisa can help & my goodness she did I was amazed without her my son who is 19
