Your Osteopath:

​Ray’s journey into osteopathy was inspired by his own experience with an osteopath. After receiving treatment for an injury and persistent back pain, he was amazed at how quickly he was able to return to the rugby field. This experience sparked his curiosity, leading him to become a 'student for a day,' where he gained insight into the rigorous five-year Master’s program in osteopathy.

​

With over a decade of experience, Ray is a highly skilled osteopath with a deep commitment to his community. He focuses on identifying the root cause of pain and dysfunction, emphasizing the body's interconnectedness.
