Edwina Clark, Osteopath
"Health to me doesn't just mean the absence of pain but being able to enjoy life fully."

Your body has the capability to heal and be healthy. Sometimes your body can't do it on its own. Osteopathy guides your body to health and to be pain free.

Edwina is a qualified and registered osteopath and sports therapist in massage and sports injuries.

A diverse and substantial education provides Edwina with the experience in treating patients of all ages, including babies (cranial osteopathy) and expectant mothers.

"I believe in continuing my education and learning through courses and seminars to keep me fully up to date with the latest research and treatments available. So that my patients always receive the best care."

All Osteopaths in the UK must be registered to maintain high standards of care. Edwina is registered with the General Osteopathic Council and is a member of the British Osteopathic Association.

Amy Hope
One of the core philosophies of Osteopathy is that the body has an inherent ability to heal, and the key to health is in removing the barriers to self healing. This is why Amy has adopted a holistic approach, to listen to and look at each person as an individual; their lifestyle, their general health, their posture and their bad habits to really help address the underlying, root cause of the problem. Amy believes that learning about what is wrong is an important step to getting better, which is why she aims to educate every patient about their bodies and how best to access and maintain health.

Also a qualified Naturopath, Amy is able to provide wise advice regarding natural healing and lifestyle choices to combine with Osteopathic treatment. She believes in treating people rather than symptoms, which is why she tailors to the individual and provides a bespoke range of treatment techniques to suit every body.

Having a broad experience base, having worked with the Royal Free Hospital’s Pain Clinic, to working with a premiership rugby team, Amy understands how to help regardless of where you are on the health spectrum, from getting you back on your feet to performing at your optimum! Being a trained ballet dancer, and having a history of injuries, she also understands the importance of being free from musculoskeletal complaint, the hindrance that aches and pains can cause and the consequences caused by ignoring or living with a problem and not getting it seen to by a professional.

Katy Rose BSc (Hons), M.Ost
Katy has 10 years experience in providing community based healthcare, having started her career as a community nurse where she discovered just how much she enjoyed working with people in the context of their daily lives. However, as a keen participant of many different sports at a competitive level, she wanted to integrate this into her career. She researched courses that would be academically and scientifically challenging and that would also incorporate her nursing background with her love of sport and found that osteopathy fitted the bill perfectly.

She graduated with a masters level degree from the British School of Osteopathy, a school that is well known within the field for providing a high quality structural approach to osteopathy. Katy practises as a structural osteopath and has also completed her diploma in sports massage so that she can incorporate deep soft tissue techniques into her treatments where it may particularly benefit athletes.

Katy has competed in swimming and running to national level and now enjoys skiing, cycling, swimming and running for leisure. She made her marathon running debut in the Virgin London Marathon 2010, closely followed by another marathon, never satisfied, she wanted to run a faster time!

She is well-equipped for dealing with sporting injuries as she fully understands the “never give up” mind-set. Her proudest sporting achievement to date is winning the silver medal at the World Bog Snorkelling Championships 2009 (feel free to ask, it’s as wacky as it sounds)!

Susan Cullen - massage and reflexology
My name is Susan Cullen I have been practicing massage and reflexology for a number of years. I am an ITEC professional and have qualified in sports, remedial massage, aromatherapy, reflexology and reiki. I am a member of the Guild of Professional Practitioners {IGGP} Embody and the complementary Therapist Association.

I offer a wide range of therapies at Eltham Osteopathy Clinic which include different types of massage from deep tissue to aromatherapy. I also practice reflexology and reiki.

Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is a type of massage aimed at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and fascia, also known as connective tissue. It is a more focused type of massage aiming to release chronic muscle tension.

Sports and Remedial Massage
Sports and remedial Massage uses a range of techniques to treat the stress, tension and fatigue that occurs through occupational, recreational or sporting activities. It can be used as an injury preventative technique as well as treatment for injury. Massage works on many different levels and it is the unique way in which it combines the various benefits to suit the individual that makes it such a versatile and effective treatment method.

Therapeutic Massage and Aromatherapy
Therapeutic Massage is a softer style of massage that focuses on promoting general relaxation and well-being.

Aromatherapy is derived from the ancient practice of using natural plant essences to promote health and wellbeing. It consists of the use of pure essential oils during massage. Aromatherapy is a wonderful way to to let go of tensions of everyday life and connect with your sense of inner peace and wellbeing.

Reflexology
Reflexology is a complementary therapy based on the principle that there are reflexes in the hands and feet that correspond to every part, gland and organ of the body. Although the hands can be used, it is more common to use the feet during a reflexology treatment. Parts of the body are stimulated by applying gentle pressure to the corresponding and connected areas of the feet. The right foot corresponds to the right side of the body and the left foot corresponds to the left side of the body. For example by working on the toes of each foot you would be stimulating the corresponding area of the body which is the head and neck, thus helping neck and head problems such as stiffness, tension and headaches. Reflexology treats the body as a whole, not only treating the symptoms but the causes of the symptoms as well.

Through application of pressure on these reflexes, reflexology relieves tension, improves circulation and promotes the natural function of the related areas of the body. This helps to return the whole body to a natural state of balance, working together at their best, and enhancing the recipient's own natural healing capabilities.
