Osteopathy treatments from highly experienced practitioners
At Dorchester Osteopaths you’re assured of professional treatment from fully qualified practitioners, all of whom are graduates of the British School of Osteopathy having completed fulltime degree courses in the subject.
All our practitioners are registered with the General Osteopathic Council, the UK regulatory body for osteopathy, and undertake at least 30 hours’ continual professional development per year as part of their statutory professional obligation.
They are:
Paul Middlehurst B.Sc. (Ost)
Following service in the Fleet Air Arm, Paul re–trained for his Degree in Osteopathy and has since specialised in treating acute musculo-skeletal conditions and enjoys working with sports-related conditions. In practice for over 15 years, he was instrumental in setting up the Dorset Back Pain Service with the Dorset PCT and continues to run clinics and develop osteopathy within the NHS. Paul is a member of the British Osteopathic Association and is listed in the NHS Directory of Complementary and Alternative Practitioners.
Sam Middlehurst B.Sc. (Ost)
Sam treats acute and chronic musculo-skeletal conditions and specialises in cranial, obstetric and paediatric osteopathy. A practitioner of 15 years’ standing, she has a particular focus on the care of pregnant mums, babies and children for which she draws on her own experiences of pregnancy and as a mum of three. Sam is a member of the British Osteopathic Association and the Sutherland Society for Cranial Osteopaths, and is also listed in the NHS Directory of Complementary and Alternative Practitioners.
