Congruence is a state where a therapist is genuine and authentic, with their inner feelings aligning with their outward expression during a session.

This creates a trustworthy and real therapeutic relationship, helping the client feel valued and encouraging them to develop their own authenticity and self-acceptance.

It is a key concept in humanistic and person-centred therapies, proposed by Carl Rogers, and involves the therapist modeling genuineness while maintaining professional boundaries.

In the osteopathic approach this is extremely important, as dealing with aches and pains goes beyond understanding the symptom, to examining the ‘primary lesion’ the origin of imbalance.

As a healer I do my best to uphold balance and understanding within myself. Utilising wisdom from all previous encounters to provide a platform for positive change in the body.

Ultimately to encourage balance in each patient, honed in on what is true to the individual, without judgement and with trust. The self healing mechanism can then come into full effect and the journey continues.

Osteopaths aim to produce a confident diagnosis.

Observation and evaluation is always the foundation of treatment.

We have a huge knowledge of different clinical tests, that allow us to understand what is the origin of someone’s pain or discomfort.

Knowledge of the problem is key to the solution.



Here are a collection of various tests we use to distinguish the cause of back pain.

The extreme case! But it’s not too far off from the same idea that tech influences posture.

People try all sorts of things to overcome this issue: monitoring screen time, giving up doom scrolling, deleting TikTok etc…

I say, fight for your posture, be active and self aware, train stretch and strengthen your connection with yourself.

And…

See the osteopath 😉
To really make sure you know how to address your system and to know specifically what you’re dealing with.

🩺 What Happens During an Osteopathic Consultation? 🌿

When you visit for an osteopathic consultation, the journey begins with understanding you.

🧠 1️⃣ Information Gathering
I take time to listen and learn — exploring:
📍 Where the pain or discomfort is
🌱 How it started
🔥 What makes it worse / 💧 what eases it
⏰ When it tends to appear
⚡️ Whether it radiates elsewhere

This stage helps paint a full picture of your unique story.

🦴 2️⃣ Physical Evaluation
Next, we move to a detailed physical assessment — similar to what you’d experience with an orthopedic consultant.
I perform a series of tests to pinpoint the cause of your problem. From this, I develop what’s known as a working hypothesis — an idea of what’s going wrong and why.

💆‍♂️ 3️⃣ Treatment Phase
Once the cause is clear, we begin treatment.
This may include:
👐 Gentle massage
🔄 Joint articulation
✨ Other manual techniques designed to rebalance your posture and movement

The goal is to activate your body’s self-healing mechanism and bring harmony back to the system.

🧘 4️⃣ Self-Care & Awareness
We can also explore:
• Tailored yoga or stretching exercises
• Simple self-treatment tools
• Mind-body awareness to help you stay aligned

🌞 Together, we build an understanding that supports your journey to health — recognising dysfunction, but always emphasising and nurturing the good within your body.

Knee pain ‼️

I have the skills to analyse and diagnose most orthopaedic conditions and know when to refer for imaging.

I know the anatomy through and through and utilise that knowledge to help every individual case of knee pain.

From as far back as I can remember, I’ve always been one to experiment—whether with thoughts, actions, or feelings. In my early years I began to notice how deeply interconnected these aspects of life are, shaping both our health and our sense of self. Along the way, I have lived through pain, sleep deprivation, and anxiety, each experience teaching me valuable lessons about the human body and mind.These challenges didn’t just shape me—they guided me towards the importance of cultivating joy, peacefulness, and mindfulness. Over time, I’ve learned that healing is not just about relieving discomfort but about reconnecting people with balance and awareness in their own lives. This understanding has become the foundation of my osteopathic practice, where I combine technical skill with empathy, presence, and the recognition that every individual’s journey is unique.It’s through both hardship and harmony that my overall style has developed—grounded in experience, enriched by observation, and guided by the pursuit of genuine well-being.

Personally, my favourite thing about Osteopathy is that it’s enables insight into the optimisation of the body

🔍 Often I use other means to help people out and discover nuances in their bodies that they didn’t realise could feel much better.

🏆 Most the time, people come to me with back pain but leave feeling aligned with a new sense of freedom that encompasses the healing of their back pain.

✅ Evidence: a screenshot from a quick client check-in. He came for a session where I mostly used cupping with oil.

Your body is an incredible system — designed to move, adapt, and support you every day. But when imbalances build up, they can leave you feeling tense, tired, or just not quite yourself.

Osteopathy works by gently restoring balance, improving how your body functions as a whole. You might notice relief from pain, improved posture, or even subtle shifts like feeling more confident and at ease in your body.

My goal is simple: to help you feel more able — lighter, freer, and better supported.
