Reasons to visit us
There are two main reasons people may want to visit one of our Osteopaths or Physiotherapists:
Flare ups - Sudden, acute bouts of pain or injury.
We understand how sudden pain or injury can significantly impact your life. With the help of our Osteopaths and Physiotherapist, we can focus on diagnosing and treating acute conditions with hands-on techniques, targeted exercises and advice. Treatment plans are tailored to your needs with the aim of alleviating pain, restoring mobility and promoting healing. We also offer guidance on preventing future injuries and improving overall well-being.
Maintenance - Long standing, chronic pain conditions.
There are many challenges that chronic pain can bring, which can be triggered for many different reasons including occupation (desk-based jobs, manual work etc) and/or chronic medical conditions (fibromyalgia or osteoarthritis etc). There may be situations were you cannot avoid excessive physical stress or live with certain conditions that cannot be cured, but our therapists are here to help you effectively manage your issues as best as possible.

What is Osteopathy & Physiotherapy?
Osteopathy and Physiotherapy are healthcare approaches focused on diagnosing, treating, and preventing problems related to the muscles, joints, and bones. This is often achieved through techniques such as manual therapy, stretching, massage, and tailored exercise programs, all designed to restore movement and reduce discomfort.
Practitioners are highly trained professionals who must complete a four- to five-year degree and be registered with their respective regulatory bodies: the General Osteopathic Council for osteopaths, and the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy for physiotherapists. This ensures they meet strict standards of education, professionalism, and ongoing development.
Does it help?
According to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (also knows as N.I.C.E), manual therapy, such as Osteopathy and Physiotherapy, is recommended alongside exercise as a treatment option for a range of joint and muscle based complaints.

I've been going to Align for about six months now and the positive difference in my back pain and general wellbeing is amazing. I love the osteo & massage treatment package as it's the perfect balance between focused pain relief and relaxation. All the staff I've encountered are very warm, welcoming, friendly and professional and take the time to get to know you as an individual which makes the whole experience more personalised. Can't recommend enough if you're having any sort of pain issues. They've definitely made me a regular client.

I’ve been getting treated by Angus for a few months now and have seen a massive improvement in my back. They were fantastic when I had a flare up and managed to get me straight back in for treatment to resolve the issue. The staff are all lovely and welcoming and I would highly recommend the clinic to anybody needing treatment.

This place is the best from the minute you walk in. I was a little nervous of what to expect but I didn't have to worry about a thing! Nathan is so welcoming and immediately puts you at ease. Matthew is the most knowledgeable professional I've ever been to in regards to my back/neck and I trust him 100%.
If you have any issues you want sorting, I couldn't recommend this place enough.
