Osteopathy

Osteopathy is one of the 14 allied-health professions recognised by the NHS and provides a whole-person approach to health and well-being. With their expertise in the musculoskeletal system (muscles, bones and joints) and its relationship with the rest of the body, osteopaths use a range of manual hands-on techniques, exercise and rehabilitation to ease tension and pain, improve blood flow and promote overall mobility and physical function.

Since graduating from the British School of Osteopathy (now UCO School of Osteopathy) at Health Sciences University (HSU) over a decade ago, Jonathan Spadaccini has worked in a number of practices across London and the South east and for many years ran a successful practice on the Isle of Wight. When not in practice, Jonathan is a senior lecturer and practice educator at the UCO School of Osteopathy, helping to develop and train the next generation of osteopaths.

Prior to becoming an osteopath, Jonathan worked for nearly 20 years in the NHS as an occupational therapist, specialising in hand therapy and has a particular interest and expertise in conditions and injuries affecting the hand and wrist. Jonathan enjoys working with a wide range of patients and conditions using a range of manual and cranial osteopathy techniques, all within an evidence-informed approach and supported by fundamental osteopathic principles, to help you back to health and function.
