Nottingham Osteopaths is a collective of independent osteopaths who share a common vision to deliver osteopathic care to the highest standards.
Established in Nottingham in 1979 the practice aims to provide a high standard of osteopathic care to patients of all ages.
The philosophy adopted by the practice is to use an entirely hands-on approach to treatment guided by a highly developed sense of touch. Furthermore, the osteopaths favour the use of gentle treatment techniques which are particularly useful in the treatment of younger patients.
All osteopaths are fully qualified and registered with the General Osteopathic Council.
The General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) regulates the practice of osteopathy in the United Kingdom. By law osteopaths must be registered with the GOsC in order to practise.
The GOsC works with the public and osteopathic profession to promote patient safety by registering qualified professionals, and setting, maintaining and developing standards of osteopathic practice and conduct. Nottingham Osteopaths is committed to upholding the highest practice standards, helping to ensure our patients experience the best in osteopathic clinical care.

We’d like to reassure you that as a healthcare setting, and to help protect our more vulnerable patients, we are continuing to carry out all our strict infection control measures, as follows:.
Here’s what to expect:
– Practitioners will be wearing PPE including and patients are kindly asked to also wear a mask at all times while inside the practice, including during treatment.
If you have a valid exemption to wearing a face-mask please inform the practice by phone prior to coming for your appointment.Hand sanitiser is available for your use at the door on entry and exit.
– Appointments can be made as usual, by phoning the practice on 0115 9484141. Please leave a message if you get our answerphone, and we’ll make sure to call you back.
– We’re trying not to use the waiting room at the moment, and ask all our patients to arrive at their appointment time as you’ll likely then be able to come straight through to the treatment room. If you have travelled by public transport, please do come as close to your appointment time as possible. The toilet facilities in the practice are also still available.
– In the practice room we’re using plastic sheets and pillow covers, with disposable paper covering. We’re spacing patient appointments out so that we can help maintain social distancing, and so that we have time to thoroughly clean and disinfect the plastic coverings and surfaces, and aerate the room between patients.
– Your osteopath will be wearing a plastic apron, gloves and a face-mask, and is using new PPE for every patient.
– If you may have been in contact with someone suffering from COVID-19 or a carrier of the virus, or if you think you may have symptoms of COVID-19 (especially cough, temperature and loss of sense of smell) please telephone the practice before your appointment to discuss the advisability of you attending. If you have any questions or concerns about your visit, please do discuss this with us when you make your appointment.
