How we’re different

What sets Bodysmiths apart is our holistic, patient-centred approach.

Our team blends expert hands-on treatment with education and tailored rehabilitation, empowering you to take control of your recovery.

What to expect at the first appointment

During your first visit, the practitioner will take a detailed case history, including your current symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle. This helps create an accurate diagnosis, with all information kept confidential.

They will then perform a clinical examination, which may include musculoskeletal, systemic, or functional assessments. Based on the findings, the practitioner will discuss a tailored treatment plan, which may include osteopathy, sports massage, rehabilitation, or wellbeing advice. Some treatment may be provided during the first session, depending on the time spent on assessments.

I have seen Gemma at Bodysmiths for 3 sessions so far. The environment is welcoming, calm and reassuring. Gemma has been able to pinpoint my exact area of concern and I have seen measurable improvement from her magic hands. Sessions are worth every penny - every minute is utilised and Gemma is incredibly thorough. I would definitely recommend

Felicity is a wonderful osteopath! I’ve had neck pain for ten plus years and have seen numerous people in the past with little success in managing it. Only since meeting Felicity do I have a proper understanding of what is causing the pain and how I can start to treat it. She is also super professional with a friendly manner and put me at ease instantly. I cannot thank her enough for all the help she has given me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Felicity is fantastic. Really friendly, professional, and incredibly credible. She fixed a chronic issue I had with my wrist and has also helped sort the tendon out in my forearm/elbow which were preventing me from lifting. 10/10 recommendation

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

After having increasing pain in my right foot, I booked an appointment with Felicity & she diagnosed an Achilles Tendon issue, gave me a deep tissue calf & tendon massage, which immediately helped and also devised & demonstrated a treatment programme for me to start - all this was such a relief after months of pain. On top of that Felicity has a lovely friendly, but highly professional manner.

Absolutely fantastic. I had a shoulder injury for a few years from racing that was continually causing me pain and issues. Felicity diagnosed the issues, worked on them and created a specific rehab program. My shoulder is the best it’s been for many years with no pain or discomfort. Thank you so much Felicity.
