Frome Valley Osteopaths

Frome Valley Osteopathy is a family orientated osteopathic practice, which treats people of all ages, adults, children and Babies.

Lauren Manning is the principle, she took over from Felicity B***y who establlished the practice in 2005. Lauren and other osteopath Sian Cook use gentle forms of osteopathy to treat all types of pain, unease and discomfort in adults and children. Frome valley osteopaths is a team, the practitioners work together to make sure that each patient gets what they need from treatment, they will also refer out of the practice if they feel your needs will be better met elsewhere.

Neurodivergent Osteopath on 3 day course about supporting other neurodivergent children, teens and adults 🙌🧡

So wonderful!!! Being able to do courses from home, it makes accessibility so much more possible! However, lack of blinds in too bright room meant Sara improvised for me... Dutch was an excellent added lap compression, the dogs came to steal all vibes, I got to move, sit in ridiculous positions in all the comfy clothes and actually learn alot 🧡🧡

The course covered specific brain areas to consider in neurodivergent individuals, times of life to consider, differences in processing related to sensory processing 'disorder', Adhd, autism, dyslexia and dsyspraxia and trauma.

I have had a bit of a false start to the new year with a stinking cold that I didnt think would be fair to share with you all, so iv had a quieter first few days than I expected...

This is financially/professionally annoying, but has also been helpful...

Im spinning a few things in my head at the moment, some plans for this year that dont feel fully formed yet. Iv had some more space to allow it to continue to spin, to not worry that its not clear yet, not to worry that i cant quite pin it down... iv got some courses im learning from coming, about holding circles, about neurodivergence and about embodiment.

This year im planning to step into myself more fully, to claim the expertise that I have and to find new ways to share it. To not just be the learner.

Im hoping to continue to create spaces where you can show up human, no need to perform, warts and all. To create spaces where you can deepen understanding of your nervous system, the language of your body, your sensory system, rest.

Most of all, I want spaces without shame, where I am not ashamed to be there on days when I am not on top form and where you feel safe and seen.

Im going to continue to talk about neurodivergence, to learn and share, because it's not overdiagnosed, we are catching up. We found more stars after telescopes were invented ... they were always there.

Anyway, a little pep talk, intention set for myself, give me a ❤️ if youre along for the ride and DM a ✨️ if youd like more info when its more solid.

Happy new year loves ✨️

This year has been a steady one, gentle, deep learning. A little more travel, a little more trust in myself and my people, a little more understanding, compassion and care, a little closer to my wife.

Its not looked grand or impressive from the outside, but I think its been one of my most important. Growth and progress can look a million different ways.

Iv had a lovely Christmas with my people and I will be enjoying a very quiet new years, with an extra dog, world's strongest man, camembert & linguine with my most favourite person.

Whatever yours looks like, have the best time.
Start the new year where you are, meet yourself without judgement and see what your heart whispers 🧡🧡

All our love.

🎄 Im signing off today and ill be back in on Jan 5th 🎄Becca is in on the 29th so we will check check phones around then 😁👍🎄

I just wanted to say a massive thanks to all of you for supporting our clinic this year, embracing the new booking system, being so kind about the new logo and decor, saying goodbye to Siân with us.

I appreciate all of you, your trust in us. I have continued to love seeing people understand themselves and their bodies better, feel more confident in what their bodies can do and more confident in knowing what they need and what they're capable of 💪🧡

On a personal note I want to say how much I appreciate your honesty, the chats I have with you guys honestly give me life! I also am aware that I dont/cant always show up consistently my best self, on the days I find it more difficult to talk etc I want to say how much I appreciate your patience, kindness and grace. You guys are great.

I hope you all have a Christmas that meets your needs, whatever they may be, I hope there is some joy and connection, some space to rest and not too much abandoning yourself for the sake of others...

Im looking forward to a famiky Christmas, a few catch ups with friends and a decent amount of hibernating! The grief is lighter this year which is a relief. If youre in the thick of it, go gently, this season can look however you need. The earth is resting, its ok if you do too.

All our love, peace and best wishes for Christmas and the new year 🙏 🎄🧡

Today is Siâns last day at Frome Valley Osteopaths.

Siân had been a huge part of the heart of the clinic for the last 8.5 years.

Im sure many of you will miss her kind, gentle, steady presence as much as I will 🧡

Siân is leaning into her new home and life right at the foot of her beloved Welsh hills. I cant think of anything more perfect for her.

You can find Siân working in Abergavenny and Monmouth if you need her.

So a massive heartfelt thanks to Siân for all the time, care, professionalism, presence and love she has brought to her time with us. We will miss her lots.

All our love Lauren & Becca

*Updates* 💛

Some big changes at Frome Valley Osteopaths this year. Some practical and obvious, some more subtle and nuanced...

Our re brand is slowly getting there, I gave myself the year to do the decorating, the online system, the website, we are getting there, it feels more us, a little less clinical 💛 we hope you like it too 💛
Epic decorating by my epic wife.

Sadly for us, but amazing for Siân... our very wonderful Siân, who has been with us for 8.5 years, is leaving in October. A new way of living closer to her beloved Welsh hills, means Siân is moving on. We will miss the gentle, kind, smiley, brilliant! and forever patient practitioner that she is, and I will miss seeing my friend so regularly 💛
Please book in if you'd like to see her before she goes or leave her a message in the comments.

Becca and I aren't going anywhere.

This year, I have continued to deepen my understanding of how to support you all better. Through my personal embodied learning around trauma, nervous systems, neurodivergence, chronic illness, and through learning for professional development.

This year, I have really enjoyed working again, holding your stories, spoken or not, and supporting you to move toward greater health and empowerment.

Hope youre all well.
All the love

There are so many places where trans people have to fight for their right to exist. Their existence is resistance.
Health care is an area that they are massively under served.
We are a place very happy to provide health care for all lgbtq people.
Everyone is welcome here.

What is craniosynostosis? And why is it important for me and my baby?

-              Craniosynostosis is when the sutures between skull bones fuse together too early.
-              These sutures facilitate growth of the skull which is itself dependent on the development of the underlying brain.
-              Craniosynostosis is often present from birth but not diagnosed until later when a baby might have an altered head shape and ridging (a raised bump) over one or more of their sutures.
-              Prompt diagnosis is essential and is made by imaging such as CT scan or x-ray. There will also be additional assessments to determine what type of craniosynostosis is present.

-              Treatment approaches vary depending on the baby’s age, symptoms and type of craniosynostosis but often involves surgical intervention. Ongoing monitoring and management may also be necessary.
So where does osteopathy fit in?
-              During their routine assessment an osteopath will examine your baby’s head and body. They will use their professional judgement and knowledge to determine if craniosynostosis is suspected then refer on for further investigation if needed.
-              Osteopathy offers a gentle, non-invasive approach as a potentially useful adjunct alongside traditional advice and treatment. The aims of osteopathy are to support your baby’s growth, nervous system and overall well-being and development. This applies in cases where surgery is not needed as well as post-surgery to assist recovery and ongoing development.

Check out our blog post … for a more in depth explanation and discussion on craniosynostosis.

For further support and guidance, the following website is an excellent resource if you or someone you know has been impacted by craniosynostosis:
