About
My passion is helping you become pain-free, more mobile and energised, so you can enjoy the life you love.
Carolyn Greenhalgh, Registered Osteopath
My Story
My original interest in Osteopathy began as a child of seven years of age. Following a break to my leg and intense ballet training, I suffered recurring pelvis and back problems. My dance teacher introduced me to an Osteopath and I was able to continue my dancing passion. The help I received to get me back to full health has always stayed with me..
I began my career as a Fitness Instructor, trained for 2 years at The Northern Institute of Massage, qualifying in 1992 as a Remedial Massage Therapist.
Before embarking on Osteopathic training, I worked in private practice as a Remedial Massage Therapist acquiring Cranio-sacral Therapy I and Cranio-sacral Therapy II with The Upledger Institute in 1994 and 1995, respectively.
After attending Oxford Brookes University, I graduated with a BSc Degree in Osteopathy in January 1999.
As part of of Continued Professional Development requirement of The General Osteopathic Council, I actively attend post-graduate courses and have a particular interest in:-
- Pilates and Exercise
- Pregnancy Care and Exercise Prescription for the Childbearing Year
- Orthotics (insoles) as part of a Bio-Mechanical Assessment with a Podiatrist
- Shoulder rehabilitation
- I provide Nutritional support with support from World leading Clinical Nutritionist teams at Nutri Advanced and Modere Europe
I am registered with The General Osteopathic Council Ref Number 3/3774/F and am a Full Member of the Institute of Osteopathy or iO.
I hope to meet you soon.
