Osteopathy First - Osteopathy & Sports Injury Clinic

I came to Hannah with debilitating back pain that I had been suffering for over 2.5 years! I had been to the GP so many times but just kept being given painkillers that would make me feel sick and never seemed to help me. In desperation I tried an osteopath who said it was probably just sciatica but the treatment didnt seem to improve my pain or mobility at all, so I tried a chiropractor who would crack my back realign my hips and see me again in 2 weeks for the same treatment but to no avail. I was becoming so depressed, the pain was affecting every aspect of my life! My sleep, my work and even quality time playing with my 2 young boys. Eventually I came across Hannah and after ONE SESSION she had referred me for an MRI where it was confirmed (as Hannah suspected) that I had in fact damaged not one, but 2 discs! With this information Hannah set out on a treatment plan with the goal of getting me back to my beloved swimming sessions. 3 osteopathy sessions in and I am sleeping through the night, my mobility has increased by a good 70% and my pain and numbness no longer rules my day to day life. We are so close to getting back in that swimming pool and I cannot wait! I will forever be so grateful for Hannah, shes really improving the quality of my life and has given me not only confirmation that there was actually something really wrong but also hope that I can get better. Looking forward to our session tomorrow. Thank you so much Hannah! Amie - 30.

Rob has been excellent. My plantar fascitis is almost healed, and his techniques work wonders. I'd definitely recommend shockwave therapy for anyone with my condition. The only thing that needs drastically changing is the football team that Rob supports!

I use Osteopathy First as my go to clinic for both myself and to send my athletes too. Working primarily with James Burrells and Rob Hill my athletes have excelled in their performances because of the quick diagnosis's and highly effective, education & treatment the team provide. For myself as a coach, I am stubborn and had not looked after myself over the last 5-6 years, an appointment with Rob and i'm now moving better than ever. It's nice being able to train again myself, I wish I had booked in sooner. Both my athlete's and I value the effectiveness of Rob & James so much that where possible we maintain regular check-ins so that the guys can help us avoid injury rather than rehabilitate from it.

I was lucky enough to get an appointment with Rob at the new practice in Gamlingay. I had a telephone conversation the day before; to discuss any health concerns and the safety procedure that will take place . The new practice was incredibly easy to get to and I was able to park and wait in the safety of the grounds. I felt incredibly at ease throughout, largely thanks to Rob making sure the safety procedures were adhered to ( hand washing , social distancing and both wearing face masks during hands on part of session). As always the treatment Rob gave was fantastic and I was able to sleep again after one session. Cannot recommend the team highly enough, especially with new procedures in place to keep all safe.

I have been seeing Hannah for osteopathic treatment for ten years now, and even if I moved to the other end of the country I would still travel back to see her! Whether it's complications with my Crohn's disease, a fall from my horse, or general wear and tear from office work, Hannah is always on hand to set me right and is certainly someone I'm proud to call a friend. With Osteopathy First, no matter who you see, you'll get a friendly, professional and knowledgeable service and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
