Mothers’ Clinic
Louise is also a midwife, having qualified in the 1980s. As a dual practitioner she is skilled in assessing a woman’s symptoms and offering an holistic approach to the needs of antenatal and postnatal women.
Osteopathy offers pre-natal women the opportunity to prepare physically for labour by becoming more aware of their own bodies and their capacity to cope. Post-natal women are often affected by the physical and emotional changes of childbirth and childcare causing symptoms that can benefit from osteopathic treatments.
During pregnancy and after the birth of a child, a woman’s body can feel very different to her. She may experience significant discomfort in her joints and muscles which could be alleviated by osteopathy.

Reviews on Google & Yell
Professional, friendly, local and affordable what more could you want? Louise has been my go to for my back pain for some time, she has a wealth of experience which has ensured that my days out, sporty activities and work shifts are pain and discomfort free.
Highly recommended…Tony Joy
(85 reviews)My uncle just had his first treatment with Louise, and he only had good things to say about her professional, effective, and friendly treatment. That’s high praise from someone who has been in a lot of pain for a long time.
Second appointment already made, and my uncle couldn’t have been any happier. Highly recommended.
Oliver Le Gear
(9 reviews)After a particularly bad episode of lower back pain, a friend suggested I made an appointment to see Louise. I’m so very pleased I did!
I felt properly listened to and cared for from the moment I walked through the door. Not only did she diagnose the fact that the issue was actually my hip not my back but I walked out of the room upright rather than bent over as I’d been for days. Thank you so much Louise.
