Alison is an osteopath based in Kensal Green with over twenty years of clinical experience in the management of neuro-musculoskeletal conditions. Her approach is patient-centred and considers biomechanical and lifestyle factors in developing the most appropriate treatment strategy.

A principled approach

Alison sees patients of varying age and fitness with a variety of conditions. Understanding all the factors contributing to your pain is important in developing a comprehensive plan for recovery and equipping you with the knowledge and strategies to self-manage your condition both now and in the future. Alison will look to your strengths and help you to trust in your body and manage your symptoms. The aim is to set you on a path to doing what you want in life without being dependent on having ongoing treatment.

Recurring aches and pains

Do you have aches and pains that never seem to completely go away despite stretching, rest or having had treatment?

Persistent pain

Pain that persists for many months or years impacts on more than just our physical health. It can cause changes in our nervous system and behaviour. It requires a very different approach to pain of recent onset.

Self-manage symptoms

When we are in pain we want to understand what is occurring and be confident that we have a strategy to get us back to our usual daily activities, fitness or sport.

Return to sport or activity

Are you looking to return to sport or want to get fit after a period of inactivity but are worried about a previous or existing injury or vulnerability?

Age-related aches and pain

Aches and pains that develop as we get older are often put down to old age but most times can be nipped in the bud with some hands-on treatment, guidance on movement and posture, and the right exercises.

Pain associated with anxiety

Pain is multifactorial and is often driven less by mechanical factors and more by stress, anxiety, fear, or inadequate sleep. Often there are both mechanical and lifestyle factors that need addressing. These can usually be self-managed with the right guidance.

I see patients from a broad area covering Queens Park, Notting Hill, Willesden and Cricklewood.  There is ample pay and display parking on Furness Road adjacent to 133 Holland Road (Ringo app useful).  The 187 bus from Queens Park station stops a 5 minute walk away.  Kensal Green and Willesden Junction tube stations are both a 12-15 minute walk away.
