Truro Osteopathic Practice

On a recent practice audit, 89% of people who underwent treatment showed considerable signs of improvement after an average of 2.73 treatments. However, while we are strongly encouraged by these results and from the reviews by our patients, we recognise that osteopathy is not a panacea for all illnesses. When a patient first comes for a consultation, our primary objective is to discover whether osteopathy is right for them. If we decide that it is inappropriate, then we will refer the patient to whoever we feel is most appropriate, e.g. doctor or acupuncturist. However, if a patient is showing no signs of improvement after three treatments, then we will cease treatment and refer the patient. Jonathan has been working as an osteopath in Cornwall for over 30 years, having qualified from the University College of Osteopathy (formerly known as the British School of Osteopathy) in 1987. He opened the practice in Truro in January 1990. Jonathan has always been an enthusiastic squash and golf player, as well as a keen follower of many other sports, including surfing and football. His active participation in sport has given him a greater insight into the mechanics of many sports injuries. He still represents Cornwall in Masters squash teams and is planning on competing in the National Squash and Racketball Championships in 2020.
