Written by the company

We are specialist osteopaths in spinal back pain problems as well as joint and muscle pain across the body. We aim to help with treatment and individual plans to help you recover to enable you to work rest and play better. We see people of all ages with a range of problems including the knees and hips as well as neck pain, shoulder pain and headaches. As Allied Health Professionals recognised by NHS England we work closely with Private and NHS Doctors and other health professionals. Osteopathy is a manual hands on therapy that works primarily by manipulating the joints and muscles in the body to both prevent and treat problems. We treat problems like back pain and neck aches, joint pains such as hip, knee or ankle pain, sports injuries and chronic conditions such as sciatica and scoliosis. At Body Back-Up we treat not just where it hurts but why it hurts. Pain in one area of the body may often be a symptom of tension or misalignment somewhere else, which is the real problem that needs be treated. We are also experts at diagnosing lifestyle factors that could be causing your problem, such as a poor workstation setup as well as sports injuries and the effects of aging. We are registered with and regulated by the General Osteopathic Council Your Symptom Timeline Childhood – Early and Teenage Years Many conditions have their root in childhood or teenage issues, whether injuries or chronic conditions. For example, childhood asthma can lead to postural problems which cause aches and pains as an adult. Past History – What may have contributed over time Your recent (6 month) history can help us understand whether any recent changes in activity or lifestyle have contributed to your problem. Immediate History – The sometimes sudden ‘Ouch’ Moment About the problem you are currently experiencing – how it occurred or what you were doing when it first happened, how it feels and when you experience it (at night, when working, etc.) Treatment Period – Our one to one coaching approach to care By understanding your health history we are able to understand what treatment you require, and give you an idea of how many sessions you may need and what improvements you can expect. Check-ups – Spotting problems before they become painful We encourage regular check-ups to ensure that you say in good health and we detect any future issues before they become a problem. Lifestyle Changes – Preventing Relapses in the future Finally, we will guide you in the lifestyle changes you can make to help yourself to stay healthy in future, and how to spot when you may need to seek further help

Simply the best

About 2 months ago I was in great pain and could only make 5 steps at a time, having to stay in bed all day to rest and hope for the pain to go. Painkillers and physiotherapy did not work and even made it worse.
Was diagnosed with a herniated disc in the lumbar region and the neurosurgeon recommended more physiotherapy, which again did not do much.

It was only after finding Dr Robin through a work colleague that everything has changed.
After the first session the pain was almost gone.
A few sessions later and following Dr. Robin's exercises and recommendations I am now back to a normal life.
More importantly I now know what to do to stay away from repeating the same trouble.

I already have and will recommed Dr Robin to anyone without any reservation - only wish I found out about him sooner, before my problems got worse.

Exceptional Osteopath - Dr Robin's Transformative Care

I cannot recommend Dr. Robin highly enough for anyone in need of an exceptional osteopath. From the moment I began seeing him, it was clear that he is truly the top of the top in his field. His unparalleled skills, genuine care, and willingness to take the time to address my concerns have made each visit a positive experience.

Throughout my time with Dr. Robin, he has helped me with various issues, including my back, coccyx, and even a Grade 3 stretch fracture in my foot. His treatment has not only alleviated my pain but has also improved my overall quality of life.

One of the most significant moments in my journey with Dr. Robin was when I broke my coccyx last year. I've never been a fan of swimming, but he encouraged me to give it a try as a form of therapy. To my surprise, it worked wonders for both my back and coccyx. This is just one example of the numerous helpful tips and recommendations he has shared with me.

Each appointment has been an enjoyable experience, and I always look forward to the next one. Dr. Robin consistently provides me with exercises to perform at home, and although I sometimes forget to do them daily, they've been incredibly beneficial.

Admittedly, the most challenging aspect of my treatment has been executing the at-home exercises correctly. Doing them the wrong way may not yield the desired results, and I often feel unsure if I am performing them properly after being shown by Dr. Robin. However, I remain optimistic that, with time and practice, I will master these exercises and continue to reap their benefits.

In my nearly eight years living in London, Dr. Robin is, without a doubt, the best medical professional I have encountered. His practice may not be the closest to my home, but I'm more than willing to travel the distance because his exceptional care is truly worth it. For anyone seeking an osteopath, I recommend Dr. Robin with eyes closed. Trust me; you won't be disappointed.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. After over 30 years in practice as an osteopath it is still fantastic to hear my professional approach is valued and appreciated. Keep up the good work. Supporting you in better health is my priority and privilege!

You'll wish you'd visited sooner

I cannot recommend Robin highly enough. He has an ability to see beyond what you think is wrong, and pinpoint exactly what's causing it. He then doesn't just look to fix the issue, but advises you on how to work towards avoiding the problem recurring. Robin seems to value his patient's health above repeat business!
I've visited Robin many times and recommended him to countless people. The verdict is always that whatever the problem, Robin puts you back together and leaves you feeling like new.

Would recommend

I went to Robin with acute back and shoulder pain, and the treatment with him addressed both the acute pain and the underlying cause. He was professional and thorough, and gave me exercises to do at home too. I was so happy with the results and I would certainly recommend him again!

Charlotte - really appreciate you taking time to share your experience with your painful back and shoulder. It was great that once we had assessed you and offered some treatment you continued the advice and followed the exercises made to fit your issues. Quite often people present at bodybackup with 2 or more problem areas and we can explore whether are linked due to a habit or activity that links the areas together even though they appear not to be connected. Keep up the good work and see you as needed!

Highly recommended

Robin took a detailed history, diagnosed me and gave me some treatment. He is clearly very knowledgeable and explained his diagnosis clearly and concisely. I have been following his instructions and the problem is easing. Very happy with the outcome, and will contact Robin the required 10 days post-initial treatment to follow up. I would highly recommend him.

Sarah - thank you for the detailed and positive experience review! For me, as an osteopath health professional for over 30 years, it is ever more important to explain clinical findings in a clear way, to help patients fully understand their condition, as well as provide easy to navigate next steps in self care and further treatment options. So pleased too that there has been some progress!

Fixed back problems and set up prevention program

It's important that you don't just have you back problems fixed ( when you have a truly bad back you know about it. Think baby crawling up the stairs) you have a prevention basis for the future. Robin fixed my back issues, but also made it easy to understand why they occurred and gave me simple home exercises to elevate mild pain and prevent future issues.

Thanks Kevin for your positive feedback! It can a very worrying time having severe back pain ! My osteopathy approach is about finding out what is wrong, helping you through the pain and disability and by explaining and exploring why Back pain happens in your specific case we can manage it and even help prevent such bad episodes down the line ! Keep well and remember we are here if you need help!

I have historically suffered from muscle cramps in the lower back and the neck area. Robin's holistic approach by treating the pain directly but also his guidance for dealing with the underlying issues that were causing the symptoms was refreshing and the key to helping me in alleviating the pain.
