The Courtyard Osteopaths | Osteopaths In Bristol

Sam is amazing. Such a gentle, kind man. He has helped my Daughter when she was born and her jaw and shoulders would click from a difficult labour which meant she took in excess air when feeding and was very painful and again years later when she had neck pain. She loved her visits to see Sam and he's the only person I know to get her to sit still for that length of time so easily and also no more neck pain. Highly recommend this practice especially Sam is great with children.

Sally from the Courtyard Oesteopaths has transformed my daughter’s interactions with family! Couldn’t recommend more highly. I wish we had taken her sooner. When we started treatment she couldn’t be held by them, would tolerate them playing with her but would sometimes cry when they would so much as look at her. After 2 or 3 sessions she was a totally different baby. Confident in playing with them, trusting them, laughing with them and letting them hold her with no problem! I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t know what to expect with the appointments either but they are very subtle gentle treatments and so relaxing- even just by sitting in the room it’s lovely.

I have been visiting Courtyard Osteopaths with my son since he was a few months old, he has seen Jeni, Sam and Sally over the months and all are wonderful, kind, knowledgeable osteopaths. My son has received osteopathy for breastfeeding, mild reflux and plagiocephaly.Initially I sought treatment to help with breastfeeding and possible reflux with Sam and Sally and although they were unable to resolve the breast feeding issues (due to an underlying medical issue of mine) the reflux symptoms disappeared and I strongly believe they helped me to have a happy healthy baby who slept well.At 5 months they noticed my sons head had become quite flat (plagiocephaly) and took measurements which placed him in the ‘severe’ section of the chart which would suggest that a helmet to address the flatness could have been appropriate.I was extremely reluctant to take my son for helmet treatment (taking months and costing thousands of pounds) so Jeni and Sam began treating him with more intensity and I am delighted to say that 4 months later his measurements show that his head has moved through the chart into ‘moderate’ and now ‘mild’ and his head is a much more regular shape.Now that my son is on a maintenance schedule I plan to start visiting Courtyard Ostepaths again for my own treatment of the the various issues childbirth has left me with!Thank you to the lovely folks at Courtyard Osteopaths for their effective work and kindness over the last 7 months

I have been bringing my baby to see Sam due to her reflux. Sam is so gentle and has a lovely manner with my baby. My little one enjoys her visits and her reflux has greatly improved! I would recommend Sam to everyone, he really is a baby whisperer!

I have been having osteopathy for 20 years and have seen various osteopaths over the years. Sally has by far been the best. I initially took my daughter who had various issues with low muscle tone, hypermobility and silent reflux, Sally was brilliant with her and noticeably helped with her development and I was so pleased that we found her. I then started to see Sally myself for migraines and she has been absolutely amazing on so many levels. I can't recommend her enough for children and adults. All in all I'd give her 100 stars if I could!

Myself and my daughter have been treated by all three osteopaths for different problems. My daughter is 2 years old and has had difficulty sleeping since birth. I have seen some amazing changes in her since being treated and we are finally getting some solid chunks of sleep at night. I also have experienced problems since the birth of my daughter which I've also seen significant improvements with. I feel very looked after as soon as I walk into the room and think the expertise between them is incredible. I rave about them to anyone I know with a toddler who has sleeping problems and I will continue to use them myself for any problems I face in the future. An amazing team who I couldn't recommend more highly!

We have been for a few sessions with Sam as my now 11 week old Rhys was born via forceps. He also has bilateral talipes. Sam is great with him and Rhys loves his sessions with him. Rhys digestive system. Reflux and latch seem so much better and I'll actually be sad when our sessions end!

Jeni has been treating our family for the past fourteen years and I have to say has been amazing. My eldest son was born with a neck issue that meant he would not sleep for longer than three hours. 6 weeks after taking him to see Jeni he was sleeping through the night.Jeni has help me through two problems with my right knee including a bakers cyst. I was told by the NHS that it would take up to two years for the bakers cyst to go away. Jeni identified that the issue was due to my body twising to the right. Three months later I was back on a bike - amazing.Jeni is currently treating my youngest son for osgood schlatters - we are coming to the end of his treatment and it has been fantastic for him. He has gone from not being able to play football three months ago to getting into a local football team. Unbelivable, cant recomment Jeni and her team enough.

Jeni and Sam have worked wonders on my colicky 6 week old. Her latch improved almost immediately after the first session which made a big difference to both her and me. I can also can now put her down, both during the day and at night. She sleeps in her own cot overnight now too and our fussy evenings are largely a thing of the past. She is much happier and so are we - I can't recommend them highly enough.

I brought my son to see Sam Dobbie when he was 3 mths old as he was an unsettled, miserable baby. Sam was absolutely fantastic with him.! He definitely settled him down and gave some great advice regarding different things...I really believe he calmed him down and made him more comfortable. We still go for a check in every few months after 18 mths.!I myself suffer with a herniated disc/lower back problems, horrible neck pain and awful migraines (due to bad posture and tension I think).. so Sam recommended Rupert Warne. Rupert was very thorough and after just the 1st appointment I was able to put my jacket on without flinching, turn my head more to each side and....I haven't had a migraine since (have been for 4 appointments now)... BRILLIANT.!Overall....fantastic service and staff.
