Pregnancy Osteopathy
Stay active and comfortable throughout pregnancy
Pregnancy is an incredible journey, but it can also bring aches, pains and changes that make everyday life more challenging.
Postpartum Osteopathy
Feel more like yourself again
Motherhood is amazing, but your body has been through a lot. Pregnancy, birth and the physical demands of caring for a baby can leave you feeling sore, tired and not quite like yourself.
General Osteopathy
Get back to doing what you enjoy
Life is busy enough without aches and pains getting in the way. Whether you're dealing with back or neck pain, an old injury, a sporting complaint or everyday stiffness, Sarah provides personalised osteopathic care for adults and children aged 5 and over.
Is pain getting in the way of your life?
"I can't sleep.", "Walking hurts.", "I can't exercise.", "I can't put my pants on.", "Feeding my baby is killing my neck.", "I just don't feel like myself."
If this sounds familiar, you're in the right place.
Feeling emotionally exhausted from pain? Guilty for not enjoying pregnancy? Motherhood not quite what you expected?
Let's help you feel more comfortable and get back to doing what matters.
You don't have to simply put up with it.
Client Reviews
“She is incredibly kind and accommodating, always making sure you feel comfortable during your sessions. What truly sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares about getting to know you—not just your symptoms, but your lifestyle as well. By understanding the bigger picture, she tailors her approach to help you improve overall, not just in the short term. I’ve noticed a real difference since seeing her, and I’m so grateful for her expertise and support!”
— Pregnancy patient, Natalia“I was referred to Sarah by my midwife after experiencing a lot of body pain, especially pelvic girdle pain. She was amazing! Super gentle, really listened, and knew exactly how to help. Each session made a noticeable difference — I felt so much more comfortable and could actually move around. I’d highly recommend her to any mums-to-be who need some relief and extra care during pregnancy.”
— Pregnancy patient, Sharlene “I went to see Sarah 3 months postpartum with back and shoulder ache that comes from carrying a little one around. I came away feeling like a whole new person and can’t believe I didn’t go sooner! Highly recommend Sarah for her amazing technique, professionalism and chat.
— Postpartum patient, Ebony“I have injured my neck due to some cycling accidents in the past. Sometimes following a jolt to my head, I get recurring headaches and even blurred vision at times. This can be for days at a time. I can feel the tension and restriction in my neck that is causing this. As I’m not a big fan of chiropractic treatment as I feel my neck is already at risk, I have found osteo treatment to be way more gentle on the affected areas.
Sarah is amazing. She gets to the root cause of the pain and gently works on the muscles and joints.
After four visits, I no longer have headaches or blurred vision and my neck feels way more flexible.
Makes life so much more enjoyable.
Thanks Sarah”
— General patient, Chris “Sarah is awesome! Went to Chiro to solve my back problems but after 2months still felt just a bit better so decided to look for alternative and found Sarah Boughtwood Osteopath. Life changing just after 3 sessions i really felt a big difference but back pain slowly disappeared. Highly recommend!”
— General patient, Vince“I absolutely adore Sarah, but rather than publishing a fan-girl sonnet, I’ll try to stick to results; at one of my last appointments, she created so much space/released so much tension in my back, that I had to adjust my rearview mirror upon leaving. My posture was dramatically different.
The daily grind is always just a little bit easier to handle when you’re under Sarah’s care.”
