Our Team

Our Team

Your body doesn't work in isolation, and neither do we. Each of our osteopaths hold specific areas of speciality, and work in a unique and cohesive way where we may momentarily draw on the skills and experience of our colleagues by momentarily bringing them into your consultation. Paired with the equally integral role of our admin team from the moment you enter our doors, we believe that we offer the very best care possible at every appointment – and is one of the many reasons that thousands of people have trusted Bodyworx with their health since 2003.
