About me

Training, qualifications & experience
Robyn holds a Masters in Osteopathy from the British School of Osteopathy (now University College of Osteopathy) and is registered with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC). She is a member of the Institute of Osteopathy (iO) and is, of course, fully insured. She also holds a Diploma in Sports Massage, is a Mental Health First Aider and often incorporates massage and wellness techniques into her treatment plans.
Following an initial consultation to understand the cause of your symptoms, Robyn will work with you to agree a treatment plan with the aim of restoring your body to a state of balance using a variety of techniques including touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage. These are aimed at helping your body’s own healing mechanisms by increasing the mobility of joints, relieving muscle tension and enhancing the blood and nerve supply to the body. Robyn may also provide advice on wellness and exercise to aid recovery, promote health and prevent symptoms recurring.
Robyn is a wellness advocate promoting self-care and ageing well. She believes that older should be defined as stronger than ever and better than before.
