Services
Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial osteopathy uses subtle techniques to relieve tensions in the body, including the head. Suitable for all ages, it addresses conditions like migraines, stress, and birth trauma. Our approach prioritises comfort, making it ideal for babies, pregnant women, and those recovering from injuries. Patients often report improved mobility and reduced pain after sessions.
Pregnancy Osteopathy
Specialist osteopathy for expectant mothers alleviates discomfort from postural changes and prepares the body for childbirth. Treatment focuses on pelvic alignment, back pain relief, and reducing strain on joints. Techniques are adapted to ensure safety and comfort during all stages of pregnancy, promoting overall well-being for mother and baby.
Postnatal Osteopathy
Postnatal care supports recovery after childbirth, addressing pelvic floor dysfunction, diastasis recti, and postural imbalances. The Mummy MOT assessment identifies specific needs, guiding tailored treatments to restore strength and mobility. This service helps new mothers regain confidence in physical activity and manage common post-birth challenges effectively.
Paediatric Osteopathy
Gentle osteopathic care for infants and children addresses feeding difficulties, colic, and developmental issues. Treatment helps relieve tension from birth trauma or growth-related strains. Sessions are conducted in a relaxed environment with toys available, ensuring children feel comfortable while receiving care tailored to their unique needs.
Pelvic Pain Management
Specialist treatment for chronic pelvic pain, including endometriosis and urinary incontinence. Combining hands-on therapy with exercise programs, we address musculoskeletal and visceral causes of discomfort. This approach helps patients understand their condition and develop strategies to manage symptoms, improving quality of life through targeted interventions.

Report
Sally was recommended to me by the infant feeding team at St Peters because my son had a poor latch due to a traumatic delivery. After one session his latch had improved dramatically and his feeding has become a lot more efficient. After the second session he has continued to improve. Im so grateful for her help because it is no longer painful for him to breastfeed and I'm confident that he is taking on more milk. I have also seen Sally for the Mummy MOT and am now confident to return to exercise post partum. She was amazing and put my mind at ease about my postpartum body. I would recommend that

We took our 6 week old baby to Sally as he has never fed well after a traumatic birth. She was fantastic with him! I was very impressed with how calm she managed to make him (and he is the furthest thing from calm normally). Even after just one session he seems much better!

Report
I have seen Sally both personally in relation to some shoulder pain and also in relation to my son after he was born for cranial osteopathy feeding issues. In both capacitys Sally was fantastic, friendly and extremely thorough, giving advice and exercises to take away between appointments and providing follow up emails to check on progress. She was also very good with my son, who was only 10 weeks old. I would highly recommend Surrey Osteopathic Care and will return if needed in future.

I have seen Sally at Surrey Osteopathic during the last two years and she has been brilliant! She is very knowledgeable and immediately knew what my problem was. Sally is professional and skilled and very approachable, immediately putting clients at ease. She has made an enormous difference to my quality of life. I will continue to use her services and would highly recommend her business.

Having researched cranial osteopathy to help my newborn after a rather difficult birth, I came across Sally's name on several forums & booked an appointment. She was kind, attentive & very helpful. We had 3 sessions with Sally & really noticed a positive change in our baby who became a lot happier in laying on her back. Sally offered fantastic advice, followed up after our treatments & was also very honest in her recommendations to continue/finish treatments which is very hard to come by. I would recommend Sally wholeheartedly to anyone seeking osteopathic treatment.

Sally is absolutely amazing. I have been seeing her for almost 3 years. She helped my baby daughter with silent reflux just after she was born - her recovery was speedy after Sally got involved and meant that she did not need to be put on strong steroid drugs. I have also had treatment with Sally for my back. Since seeing her, I have not suffered the painful debilitating back episodes that I used to after doing certain every day tasks. She also helped me to start running again!
Sally is knowledgeable, kind, caring and a lovely person. I cannot recommend her highly enough and can't wait to start
