Wantage Osteopathic Practice

We offer osteopathic treatment for a wide range of musculoskeletal problems for adults, children and babies.

The Wantage Osteopathic Practice is owned and run by Katherine Harris. Katherine graduated from the British School of Osteopathy in 1992 with a degree qualification. The next three years were spent gaining valuable experience at a large practice in Ipswich, Suffolk, before taking over the Wantage Osteopathic practice in 1995. Since then Katherine has developed the practice and now has a team of os

teopaths to support her who can provide treatment in all aspects of osteopathic care from sports injuries to cranial osteopathy for adults, children and babies. Katherine is a registered provider for osteopathic care with BUPA, PPP and most other private medical insurance plans. All osteopaths at the Wantage Osteopathic Practice are regulated by the GOsC.

Tendonitis may occur when a tendon becomes inflamed after an injury, repetitive use or inflammatory disease. It may cause swelling, joint pain and stiffness, and can affect movement. Tendonitis is a common condition often seen in the ankle, elbow or shoulder that fortunately responds well to care and treatment.
Early diagnosis and osteopathic treatment can aid recovery and get you back to normal activities more quickly.

Our osteopaths will take time to understand your symptoms, medical history and lifestyle which in turn will help to make an accurate diagnosis of the cause of your issue and to formulate a treatment plan that will achieve the best outcome.

Your osteopath will use a range of gentle hands-on techniques, dependent on your age and diagnosis, together with rehabilitation advice, designed to promote and maintain health and movement.

2024 marks 150 years of Osteopathy, and we are beyond proud to be part of this incredible profession that transforms lives every day. Osteopathy uses manual therapy and a range of non-invasive techniques to provide pain relief and rehabilitation, aiming to improve joint mobility, relieve muscular tension and enable effective healing. Osteopaths are highly trained healthcare professionals, with a four-year degree, and are experts in the musculoskeletal (MSK) system. Osteopathic educators and regulators support and promote evidence-based practice, thereby encouraging the study and use of best available evidence, clinical experience, and patient preferences to make informed patient-care decisions. Call us for advice or to book an appointment on 01235 768748. We've got your back! https://www.wantageosteopathicpractice.co.uk/

Do you suffer with acute or chronic back pain? Back pain can occur in the low back, between the shoulder blades or at the base of the neck. The problem is often postural and maintained by sitting for long periods; a sporadic exercise regime; lifting and carrying young children; or by work.

Recommended by national guidelines, osteopathy is a safe and gentle form of musculoskeletal manipulation that can help with back pain.

Osteopaths use a holistic approach to assess patients and determine which joint function may have broken down. We can then treat the areas of the spine that may not be functioning or areas that may be over-compensating – these areas will be causing the pain.

Usually a course of treatment followed by advice on an ongoing exercise program, or ways that the patient can reduce the strain that is being placed on certain areas of the spine, will result in a significant improvement in symptoms.

We have some availability next week if you need our help with your back or any other musculoskeletal issue.
