He has managed to correct a lower back / glute issue and is making progress on my knee. Very experienced and profesional. Would recommend. Reception staff also very pleasant and always happy to help, also quick to respond to email. Thank you. Eve Levin11/12/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been coming to The Aston Clinic for a long time, being under the care of David and Laurie Melrose. Their expertise and care have been invaluable in reducing my knee pain. The clinic is welcoming and peaceful and I highly recommend. Scarlett Dickson22/11/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Would highly recommend this clinic. I came here with pain in my wrist and a problem with my arm. This was instantly resolved in my first visit and I received additional help with a scar. I was prescribed a cream that seems to work magic. Just like the osteopath. I’m now pain free and my scar is healing very well indeed. Thank you Aston clinic! Trisha Chandler21/11/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had 2 visits now. I’ve seen both David and Laurie and had great results from both. Isobel James15/11/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had a few sessions with David Melrose, and also with Laurie Melrose-Doering and I cannot speak more highly of the result and experience I have had. Their knowledge of the body and how everything is interlinked is truly mind blowing. I have come to the practice with numerous issues with no idea that they are all interlinked. One issue was jawlock that I have experienced for around 35yrs. Within the space of 3 minutes David had realigned my jaw and the problem that was gone. But he also educated me in how it affected the whole body, ears etc. I am also being treated for inflammation presenting itself as osteoarthritis and gastritis. By using muscle reaction to herbal scents a prescription has been formulated that has removed any pain I had been experiencing through inflammation. Truly incredible. I trialled with a first free consultation due to a recommendation. In return I would highly recommend to others with any aches or pain or other in the body.

Trevor Heap26/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having had enduring pain in my back and legs I went to see Laurie at the Aston Clinic in New Malden. The effect of his treatment were there to be appreciated after the first session when I walked back home almost completely free of any discomfort. I’ve been back a couple of times and feel much improved - going back this morning and am truly satisfied. Fully recommended. My last session 6 days ago has made a great difference and I am looking forward to tomorrow morning on the “couch” - if I achieve similar results I may well vault the front wall as I leave! Looking forward to seeing you Laurie, all the best. Jack Josephs21/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've just started seeing Laurie. It's been really good so far. Laurie is very professional and I will definitely be coming back! leanne smith16/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to see Dr Laurie 2 weeks before a planned holiday to Cinque Terra. My back was so very sore, my movement was limited and any slight movement gave me awful pain. I managed to get two sessions with Dr Laurie and he assured me I should be ok . I mentioned my legs had battled with stair climbs for most of my life even when young and fit. He did a manipulation on my neck and explained the connection. As a 69yr old lady Im overwhelmed with the results. I managed to walk from one town to the next, a 3.5 hr treck across the mountain track. Ups and downs, difficult walking for most. I cannot believe what I achieved within 3 weeks of injuring my back. I will be forever grateful. Thank you Dr LaurieVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Dislocated Ribs, Displaced Joints In Neck And Back, Repetitive Strain Injury
I would without hesitation recommend everyone to my osteopath, David Melrose. He was originally recommended to me by a doctor-friend nearly 20 years ago, and during the last 20 years has “rescued” me many times after various mishaps. He has treated diverse problems such as dislocated ribs, “locked” muscles or displaced joints in neck or back, repetitive strain injury in arm, and has also much-alleviated a chronic (not entirely curable) muscle-weakness problem resulting from an old abdominal injury. His use of Applied Kinesiology inspires confidence, in exact pinpointing of the location of damage or displacement even when symptoms are puzzling and obscure. In fact, I don’t understand why this wonderful extra tool for diagnosis and treatment is not eagerly sought-after by all osteopaths.

Dupuytren’s Contracture, Frozen Shoulder, Neck Stiffness
Laurie has helped cure me of Dupuytren contracture, which is apparently incurable apart from surgery – 40% successful, but Laurie solved this after 4 or 5 treatments. Also solved a really painful frozen shoulder and has kept my ‘T2’ neck problem in check.
He is a really personable young man and I cannot recommend him any more that saying “trust this guy”. Totally converted as a non alternative person that I was.

Osteopathy, Tennis Elbow, Knee Injury
Very good osteopaths, thank you enormously to Anne Mamok and David Melrose, also thank you to the good, attentive and professional acupuncturist Caterina that made me trust acupuncture therapy as I never had it before, I have used these 3 professionals for tennis elbow and knee injury. A trustworthy place where I keep coming back whenever I have a problem, even if I have moved to a different area. Such a good, involved team with very responsive receptionists, too .

David is an outstanding practitioner. As well as being extremely proficient at osteopathy, he has a great knowledge of herbal medicine. Unlike most GPs, David understands the importance of treating the whole person. His attention to detail has uplifted me on the road to recovery. I have known David for more than 30 years and he is the only practitioner I would trust completely.

Knee Arthritis
I came to the Aston Clinic with my son twenty years ago and have stayed here ever since repairing all the ailments of the whole family.
Lately, when the old age started creeping in I have become a more frequent visitor and each time David Melrose the Master performed miracles as I was rising like a phoenix from the ashes – firstly limping into the clinic and then leaving it in pirouettes and other ballet poses like a real ballerina.
The crux of the matter is that my wonky knee destined to be replaced has been saved by David. According to the opinion of the eminent orthopaedic London surgeon I have the strongest thigh muscles on earth and should be entered in the Guinness Book of Records. Have told him about David and the doctor’s order is to carry on seeing him for ever and ever… David, how can I thank you….

Back Pain, Stomach Issues & Herpetic Neuralgia
David Melrose has treated most of my family (babies to grannies) with great success. Problems dealt with include back problems – trapped nerves – injuries – allergies and stomach problems. Recently, he has helped alleviate the pain of post herpetic neuralgia – when others had given up.
