My favourite thing about being an Osteopath, Medical Herbalist and Applied Kinesiologist

Osteopathy and Herbal Medicine are two of my three biggest loves in my life. I am still working full-time way past retirement age because I love seeing people get better through my treatment and changing their lives.

Approach

I use Applied Kinesiology to obtain an accurate, patient-centred diagnosis before I treat using osteopathic techniques or herbal medicine. I use a range of osteopathic techniques, including some that I have developed myself after many years of practice.
