Churchdown Osteopaths was started in 1978 by Clive and Liz Hayden, and has grown rapidly over the years. We currently have 7 osteopaths working in the practice.

The practice can be described as a true family practice, having something to offer all ages, and for a wide variety of conditions (see Information about Osteopathy). We have a special interest in the treatment of babies and children, because we find that early treatment to establish good balance and health in the body sets the scene for a lifetime of health. Children are seen within normal clinic times as well as in the dedicated Children's Clinic on Wednesday mornings.

Treatment is for the most part done using the very subtle, gentle but powerful cranial approach to osteopathy, although occasionally osteopaths will use manipulative techniques. Within our team of osteopaths we also have osteopaths who specialise in sports massage, exercises for rehabilitation, and nutrition (but not allergy testing).
