Osteopathy is a hands-on approach to healthcare that focuses on improving health, vitality and the overall function of the body. It can help improve mobility, ease pain and support recovery after injury.
I believe the body often has more to tell us than the symptoms alone suggest. Through osteopathic treatment, I help people explore the underlying patterns behind pain and discomfort, supporting greater ease, movement and a deeper understanding of their health.
Understanding osteopathy
Osteopathy is principally a philosophy of health – at its core is the understanding that the body is able to heal itself given the right internal and external environment. Practical application involves supporting the restoration of this environment using a hands on approach. The practical results of this are clearing pain, improving movement, speeding up healing and overall more vitality.
This can look like many things from adjusting a vertebra to articulating a joint to releasing a trigger point in a muscle. It can also involve working with subtle energies in what we call ‘cranial osteopathy’ which is an important part of my approach or mobilising the fascia around an organ.
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, osteopathy looks at how different parts of the body work together and how restriction or imbalance may be contributing to pain or discomfort and we have tools allowing us to correct those imbalances. .
Osteopathy supports the body in recovering from injury, improving mobility and easing patterns of stress or tension that can build up over time from postural issues, past injuries or emotional overwhelm. Treatment focuses on restoring movement and balance in the nervous system and body as a whole so it can function and heal more comfortably.
Common concerns include: back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, joint pain, muscle strains and sprains, sports injuries, tension headaches, sciatica.
Treatment supports improvement in joint stiffness, reduced range of movement, postural strain, muscular imbalance through hands on articulation and exercise advice
Postural strain can build up through daily habits such as desk work, childcare, exercise or long periods of sitting. Common concerns include shoulder rounding, upper back and neck tension, and general postural imbalance.
Periods of stress often show up physically in the body. Common patterns include muscular tension, neck and shoulder tightness, jaw tension, headaches, fatigue and difficulty relaxing. Rebecca’s approach is highly effective in reducing the effects of stress in the body.
When tissues are strained, slow to recover or you are recovering post surgically, additional support helps the body heal more effectively. Treatment may include osteopathy or INDIBA radiofrequency therapy to support circulation and tissue repair.
Symptoms may include digestive discomfort, bloating, abdominal tension, reflux, pelvic tension. Gentle visceral and other osteopathic techniques may be used to support mobility and balance around the internal organs.
Support for women through pregnancy, postnatal recovery and wider pelvic health concerns. This includes areas such as pelvic floor balance, fertility support and recovery after birth.
Gentle cranial osteopathy can support babies and children following pregnancy, birth and early development. This may include concerns such as unsettled behaviour, feeding difficulties or digestive discomfort.
Please note that this is not an exhaustive list.
Osteopathy does not treat conditions or parts of the body in isolation, but works with the body as a whole. Rebecca always takes time to understand your individual history, symptoms and the wider patterns in the body that may be contributing to discomfort. Treatment is tailored to each person, with the aim of identifying the underlying causes of symptoms and supporting the body’s natural ability to restore balance.
Getting to the root cause
Your first session begins with a conversation about your symptoms and overall health picture. I take time to understand your individual story and how your body has been feeling, building up a picture of the root causes and underlying issues that may be contributing to your symptoms.
I will then carry out a physical assessment to understand how your body is moving, where tension or restriction is being held, and how energy and breath are flowing through the body.
Treatment is hands-on and tailored to your body and your individual story. I work with the body as a whole, staying curious about the patterns, connections and underlying causes that may be contributing to your symptoms.
I may use a combination of both structural and energetic techniques such as soft tissue work, gentle joint mobilisation, cranial osteopathy and ‘dialoguing with your body’ to support improved function. I will suggest exercises and other ‘homework’ to support recovery between sessions.
Appointments usually last 45–60 minutes.
INDIBA therapy supports tissue healing, reduces pain and improves recovery using gentle radiofrequency technology. It is particularly helpful for musculoskeletal injuries, pelvic health concerns and post-surgical scar tissue. This can be used in conjunction with osteopathy to support healing or standalone say for optimal healing of scar tissue..

“I can’t recommend Rebecca highly enough. I was involved in a road accident and struggling with lower back pain for over a year when I started to see Rebecca. Amazingly, within a handful of sessions, I feel pretty much back to normal and wish I had sought Rebecca’s help earlier. I’m not quite sure how Rebecca works her magic, but it is testimony to her years of training and dedicated practice, that she is able to achieve such fantastic and transformative results. I particularly appreciate Rebecca’s holistic, gentle and sensitive approach and feel safe and confident in her hands.”

Osteopathy can help with a range of musculoskeletal concerns, including back and neck pain, joint discomfort, muscle tension, stiffness and some sports-related injuries.
I also work with people experiencing postural difficulties, restricted movement and ongoing discomfort that may be affecting their everyday lives.
Rather than focusing only on the area causing pain, I take time to understand your health history, lifestyle and how different parts of your body may be contributing to your symptoms. Treatment is then tailored to your individual needs.
Osteopathy, physiotherapy and chiropractic care all work with the body and can help with musculoskeletal concerns, although their approaches and techniques may differ.
Osteopathy takes a whole-body approach, looking at how different areas of the body work together and how factors such as movement, posture, lifestyle and previous injuries may contribute to your symptoms.
My own approach combines a range of osteopathic techniques, from gentle hands-on treatment to joint mobilisation and soft tissue work, depending on what feels most appropriate for you.
Ultimately, finding a practitioner whose approach feels right for you is just as important as the type of treatment you choose.
We’ll begin by talking about your symptoms, health history and anything else that may be affecting how you’re feeling.
I’ll then carry out a physical assessment, which may involve looking at your posture, movement and areas of tension or discomfort.
Depending on what we find, treatment may include gentle hands-on techniques, soft tissue work, stretching or joint mobilisation. I’ll explain what I’m doing along the way, and we can also discuss exercises, self-care or any follow-up support that may be helpful.
Every appointment is guided by your individual needs and what feels appropriate for you.
This really depends on what’s brought you here, how long you’ve been experiencing symptoms and how your body responds to treatment.
Some people may only need a small number of appointments, while others with more complex or longstanding concerns may benefit from ongoing support.
We’ll discuss this together after your initial assessment and review your progress as we go. My aim is always to give you the support you need without recommending more appointments than necessary.
Osteopathic treatment is generally well tolerated, although some people may experience temporary soreness, stiffness, tiredness or discomfort afterwards.
These effects are usually mild and settle within a few days. Some clients also describe changes in how they feel emotionally, or notice more vivid dreams or changes in their sleep following a session. Everyone’s experience is different, and you may not notice any of these changes at all.
As with any hands-on treatment, there are also risks that depend on the techniques used and your individual health circumstances.
I’ll always take your medical history into account, explain any relevant risks and discuss treatment options with you beforehand. If osteopathy isn’t appropriate for your needs, I’ll help you explore other options or refer you for further medical advice where necessary.
If you’re experiencing pain, tension or restricted movement, osteopathy can help support recovery and restore balance in the body.
Appointments take place in Walthamstow and Marylebone, London.
