Samuel is fully registered with the General Osteopathic Council and can accept payment through most medical insurance companies. He has completed further professional training in a wide variety of treatment and rehabilitation techniques, including shockwave therapy, medical acupuncture and clinical pilates.

 

Samuel uses a combination of manual osteopathic approaches tailored to suit the individual patient. He takes an interest in posture and movement patterns and how they influence muscle and joint pain. Samuel works hard to stay up to date with the latest research in all areas relevant to osteopathy so that he can integrate modern knowledge in his practice. As a former university tutor, Samuel puts a lot of emphasis on educating and believes that his patients benefit greatly from understanding the nature of their conditions. When he's not at work, he enjoys spending as much time as possible with his young daughters, Caitlin and Tara.
