Catrin Mear Osteopath

Each patient is offered a thorough examination and a personalized treatment plan, including home exercises, postural guidance and general health advice. Treatment in the session includes a range of techniques for example soft tissue massage, stretching of muscles and mobilising of joints sometimes with manipulations, traction or using muscle energy techniques.   Often the release of the body is very gentle and subtle to create a relaxation response.

I am experienced in treating patients of all ages (including expecting mothers and newborns). For the full range of Conditions Osteopathy can help with, click here.

Catrin Mear BSc Hons Osteopathy

Catrin qualified as an Osteopath in 2005 and has enjoyed providing Osteopathy to the people in her local community ever since. She is passionate about the benefits of Osteopathy as a natural form of treatment and liaises with GPs and consultants where necessary to ensure her patients get the best care.

Catrin uses a range of osteopathy treatment types and also medical acupuncture. In particular she specialises in a gentle form of osteopathy referred to as cranial osteopathy but used on all parts of the body. She is an international lecturer in cranial osteopathy on behalf of the European School of Osteopathy.

Catrin’s ethos is to help patients heal themselves and one of her principles involves getting to the bottom of the initial “Cause” of the pain or discomfort and why it may not be healing. She has a strong interest in postural awareness in daily life and rehabilitative exercises as a therapeutic solution that patients can undertake at home. In addition Catrin has specialist training as a SIRPA practitioner for patients suffering from chronic pain and other stress illness complaints and incorprates a research based mind body approach and the most recent neuroscience to empower patients to recover.
