I have never needed any form of " Osteopathy", until recently. I had suffered a stiff lower back on and off for 6-8wks, as the problem was not getting better, I made an appointment with St Clements Osteopathy Practice. The problem was identified on my first visit and treated straight away, the results were immediate and after 2 visits my stiff back was no more. Thank you for a very, very professional service

I have had lower back problems for 8 years. I have been suffering with stiffness and muscular pain. I was recommended by a friend to see Tom Bedford, the osteopath on St Clements Street, Oxford. I have had four session with the osteopath and feel a lot better. I have no pain it is an great improvement, thank you!

After more than 3 years of back pain and several unsuccessful treatments I took a course of osteopathy after seeing the window display on my way to university, after just 3 treatments my back pain is almost totally gone, I highly recommend this practice

Thank you for sorting out my neck - after months of a dull headache I'd begun to accept it as normal. But a few treatments have made an enormous difference and I really am grateful.

I started seeing Tom in 2008 for lower back pain and tight neck and shoulders. After the first session I felt immediate relief. After several sessions I now see him every couple of months or so for a top up treatment. Tom always takes time to listen to what I have to say and understands immediately the often odd descriptions of symptoms I give him. The whole experience from start to finish is professional, friendly and most importantly for me you feel you are in a safe pair of hands. I would (and have) recommend the practice for anyone with back and joint problems. Tom truly has magic hands.

I had really bad shoulder pain for about 3 months, I went to see Tom and after 3 sessions I'm now pain free!

After helping relatives move, I had a trapped nerve in my upper vertebrae which massage had not addressed. The pinched nerve had severely limited my head movement and caused serious pain. Two sessions with Tom and I was back in great shape. A wonderful investment!

The BBC World Service has just lost a local listener! Severe pain in my left leg and hip had been waking me up at 2.00 or 3.00 am for days, and the only relief I could get was by sitting bolt upright or standing for hours. The World Service engaged my mind while the muscle spasms slowly relaxed, but one session with Tom brought longer lasting relief, and I was able to sleep through the night again. A second session appears to have resolved the problem. My thanks to the BBC, but most especially to Tom.

I just wanted to say a big thank you to Tom Bedford for sorting my back problems couldn't walk more than ten minutes and it was so uncomfortable thanks to tom I'm able to walk better without any pain at all. i definitely will recommend you to my colleagues thank you very much once again

I had had neck and lower back pain for many years being unable to stand for any length of time. After 1 session with Tom Bedford the neck pain went and after 3 sessions the back pain has gone too. Thank you Tom.

After suffering from sciatica for over 4 months I decided to visit Tom Bedford, and after 3 sessions I found a big improvement and was so glad to get some much needed relief to my sciatica problem. Tom explained what was happening with the sciatica and what he needed to do in order to correct the problem in an easy to understand way. I would recommend Tom Bedford and the St Clements Osteopathy & Massage.

Really professional, soothing,and carefully explained what they were doing and why.

I went to Summeara with severe SPD in pregnancy - to the point my hips had dislocated at one point and I couldn't walk. Physio treatment had had no impact, but after just one session with Summeara I could walk again and she kept me mobile right through my pregnancy. Other than being a miracle worker, she was lovely and friendly yet professional. She also went away and did some extra research on my rare connective tissue disorder so that she could treat me better. Fantastic care! Would you recommend our services? Yes

Had my first ever treatment today for a recent back/Sciatica complaint. Saw Corinne who was thorough in getting to understand my problem & professional in her treatment & advice. Reception staff Aoife & Anne were very helpful in arranging a suitable time & day for me as I'm restricted due to work. Would highly recommend anyone to come to 51stclements.

Had your first appointment today, with a lovely lady called Summeara, I believe her name was. Amazing! After multiple pregnancies I had lower back pain, pain between my shoulder blades and lower neck. I literally walked out pain free. Cannot believe how effective the appointment was. Highly recommended. Can see myself returning for all kinds of appointments.

I was suffering from a debilitating, stabbing pain in my head, stemming from my neck and possibly caused by stress and long days staring at a screen. After two sessions with Ben Davies, the pain, a 'tension headache', completely disappeared and I was back to normal...highly recommend this place!

Just the very efficient and knowledgeable practitioners. Each time I visit they exam me and find the areas that hurt without me always having to say each spot. I always come away feeling much better and like the issue has resolved or is a whole lot better. Would highly recommend to anyone with ongoing pains.

I was very pleased with the service I received. I arrived with pain in my middle and upper back which had been getting increasingly worse over several months. The Osteopath I saw explained what was likely to be causing the pain, gently manipulated my spine and massaged surrounding muscles. I was given some advice on being more active and exercise that should help maintain the comfort the osteopathy would provide with. Several weeks have now passed since my appointment and I am feeling very well.

I had a meeting with Tom Bedford re having cracks in my knees when bending _ I am 75! He examined me - complimented on my fitness for my age and effectively said -Don't spend any more money on this practice .What you need is to regularly use an exercise bike -and then he gave me suggestions on bikes suitable for seniors So instead of getting to spend money on his practice he directed me to a different 'treatment'. How many time has this happened to you ?

It is always scary to go for a session like that, especially because it involves rather a high price. However, I felt better immediately and the next day I forgot that I had pain. So I was very happy for my decision to seek for help, it has improved quality of life drastically!
