Serena did a marvellous job with sorting out my backache. I strained my back while painting ceilings and really needed some treatment. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I think her rates are very reasonable and the aftercare and advice are also very good. I have no hesitation in recommending her services to others.Posted on Google![]()

I honestly can’t recommend Serena highly enough. From the moment I walked into the clinic, I felt completely at ease. She took the time to really listen to everything I had to say and carried a thorough assessment before clearly explaining what she thought was causing my pain. The treatment itself was excellent, and I left feeling noticeably looser with much less discomfort. What really stood out to me was Serena didn’t just treat the symptoms, she explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and gave me exercises to do at home, with clear instructions, so I could continue improving between appointments. She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and genuinely cares about her patients. The clinic is welcoming, spotless and has such a calm atmosphere, which makes the experience even better. If you’re looking for an osteopath who is kind, thorough and truly wants to help you get back to doing the things you enjoy, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Serena. Thank you so much I only wish I’d booked sooner.Posted on Google![]()

Having had to source a new osteopath, due to the departure of my previous one, I went to see Serena with a newly developed neck and shoulder issue. She was very attentive and professional and sorted the problem out for me. I also received advice on exercises with a follow up email and You Tube videos to help. I would recommend Serena. The hours free parking opposite the clinic is an added bonus.Posted on Google![]()

Excellent in all respects- knowledgable and skilled I would recommend Serena to anyone considering osteopathic treatment
Starting Lind Street Osteopathy has been a dream built on years of study, curiosity, and a genuine desire to help people feel more at home in their bodies.
I believe in making healthcare personal. That means taking time to listen, understanding what really matters to you, and working together on a plan that fits your life, not a generic treatment protocol.
I have a particular interest in chronic pain, women’s health, and pain education, and I bring that depth of knowledge to every appointment, whatever brings you through the door.
Whether you’re navigating a long-term condition or dealing with a recent injury, I’m here to help reduce pain, restore movement, and help you feel more confident in your body again.

I’ve had a great experience with Serena. She takes the time to really listen and understand what’s going on, and she explains everything clearly so I always feel informed and reassured. The treatment she suggested has been genuinely helpful, and after each session I’ve left feeling better and more optimistic about my back pain. I’m very grateful for her support and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and effective osteopath.
Serena has been amazing in helping me manage my lower back pain. She’s very knowledgeable, and she explained everything in a way that really put me at ease. I always feel listened to and supported during each session. Thanks to her, my back is feeling so much better, and I feel more confident about my recovery. I highly recommend Serena to anyone looking for a skilled and caring osteopath.
I cannot recommend Serena enough! I came in with neck pain that was making daily life tough, and she's been absolutely fantastic. She takes the time to actually listen and explained exactly what was going on with my neck. Her treatments are gentle but incredibly effective and I felt significant relief right after the first appointment. I have so much more mobility now and am pretty much pain-free. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
