Osteopaths are experts in addressing pain and other problems coming from the muscles, joints and associated soft tissues. We do this by providing a package of care that includes ‘hands on’ treatment, specific advice and exercise therapy, where required and based on your individual needs. Osteopaths are regulated health professionals, trained to degree level.
Niamh is a women’s health osteopath and has completed specialist postgraduate training in Women’s Health Osteopathy and the ‘Mummy MOT’ postnatal assessment. She works in North Devon. Niamh has over 10 years of experience and she holds a special interest in the following areas:
Expectant mothers and pregnancy.
Post birth issues (early on or many years later).
Female pelvic health (for all ages).
Her aim is to support women and show them that often the pelvic health issues that they believe should be tolerated as normal, can be addressed and improved.
I ask questions about the nature of your problem, past history and lifestyle. I then perform a thorough examination of the area and other associated parts of the body.
From this I determine which treatment modalities to choose, and I provide hands on manual therapy techniques that are specific and suitable for each patient.

She’s an exceptional therapist: very skilled, knowledgeable and insightful, as well as oozing warmth and kindness. Having seen many therapists, she’s one of the best.
I believe Niamh to be one the most talented health professionals I've ever seen.
After suffering so much pain with a trapped nerve in my shoulder, the relief Niamh has given me has been phenomenal. I was taking high dose painkillers and didn't feel able to run the family home safely. I came off it all.
Niamh has an undeniable passion for women's health issues and this comes across in her deep knowledge and intuitive approach.
She combines great sensitivity with what feels like innate ability to sound out where your body needs support.
I'm so glad I found Niamh! I had my son ten years ago and it was a traumatic childbirth for me. Since then, I have suffered with back pain and pelvic floor issues. After a few treatments with Niamh my symptoms are so much better.
