About Marc Jones
Heavily influenced by the latest research in understanding pain, and the traditional work of former British osteopath and physician Dr Alan Stoddard, Marc is a Clinical Osteopath from the UK with an honours degree in Osteopathy and a Master’s degree (with distinction) in Advanced Professional Practice (Clinical Sciences).
Typical to what you might experience in the UK, Marc offers a "no-nonsense" approach comprising of his original Osteopathic degree, three decades of healthcare practice, and our latest understandings of how pain, movement and postures really work (which is not what you may think and what everyone may keep telling you) through his expert level research and practice studies.
If you enjoy integrated biomechanical and manipulative treatments, unique pain and movement self-help ideas, and a healthy dose of simply-explained understanding, Marc specialises in the original musculoskeletal osteopathy backed up with the best current evidence-based practice in pain and movement to help you get back to doing what you enjoy the most.
Marc does not use "laying on of hands" techniques such as visceral or cranio-sacral therapy.
