Services
Osteopathy
Osteopathy addresses musculoskeletal conditions through hands-on techniques including joint manipulation and soft tissue massage. Our registered practitioners treat back pain, neck pain, and sports injuries by improving body mechanics. This evidence-based approach focuses on restoring mobility and reducing pain through targeted interventions.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy provides non-invasive treatment for chronic musculoskeletal conditions using acoustic waves to stimulate healing. We use this technology for treating tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and calcifications. This FDA-approved method offers alternatives to surgery with minimal recovery time required for patients.
MRI Scans
MRI scanning services offer accurate diagnostic imaging for musculoskeletal and neurological conditions. Our referral process enables patients to obtain detailed body scans for diagnosis confirmation. This technology helps identify disc problems, ligament damage, and other structural issues requiring targeted treatment planning.
Orthotics
Orthotic services use advanced gait analysis to create custom foot supports that correct biomechanical imbalances. Our FootScan system identifies pressure distribution issues for prescribing precision orthotics. This intervention addresses knee pain, back problems, and sports-related foot conditions through individualised solutions.
Cardiac Rehabilitation
Phased cardiac rehabilitation programmes support recovery after heart events and manage cardiovascular risk factors. Our phase 4 classes build on previous rehabilitation stages through supervised exercise sessions. This service combines physical conditioning with health education to improve long-term cardiac outcomes.

I brought my teenage son in to see John Weston at your Worcester Park practice due to a sports, hip injury that was taking a while to heal. We have been so incredibly happy with the friendly service and focused attention we have received. John has done an excellent job with my son who is feeling a lot better. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely brilliant service from Michael yet again.
Visited him back in 2016 with a lower back issue which Michael sorted straight away with a series of treatments. I then managed to pull a muscle in my mid back which left me struggling to breath properly. Called and was seen the same day by Michael. Only after one visit I can feel the difference. A very pleasant and engaging man to make you feel relaxed by finding a common interest to talk about.
Fantastic experience yet again, will definitely use again.

My Husband has only had one appointment so far ,but we felt strongly that we wanted to leave a review now(and early in his treatment) of our fist very favourable impressions. John is a wonderful asset to the team already there. My Husband Colin and I were so impressed with his diligence, patience and knowlege in starting to treat my Husbands seemingly very complex and unusual condition. Totally approachable, friendly and professional, we look forward to more appointments with John in the great belief that it will help alleviate /lessen or totally relieve my Husband of his distressing condition
