I went to see Seb as my back had seized up at the end of December after lifting a heavy bag without thinking about what I was doing. 🙄 I had hip and lower back pain and could hardly walk… Seb diagnosed hip bursitis - he used gentle massage and realignment as well as giving me two simple exercises to do at home. Things started improving straight away, and on my second visit I was feeling much better. By my third visit my back felt fine - I’m very impressed! Seb is very experienced and knowledgable but took time to listen carefully to my symptoms and concerns. I would recommend him without hesitation.

I attended Castle Clinic with neck and shoulder problems. The treatment I received from Osteopath Daniel Toher was excellent. He was professional, approachable and sorted out the problem in a few appointments. I would highly recommend Daniel.

I first visited Seb and the team at Castle Clinic in September 2025 with a hip flexor problem that I had been suffering from for well over a year. I had previously seen other clinicians elsewhere but no one had managed to get to the root of the problem. I am thankful that I have found such a caring and experienced osteopath. With his healing hands and expertise, Seb has helped me with the pain and to regain mobility with my hip. I will continue seeing him for regular maintenance to help with other ‘niggles’ that occur with age!

Wow I’m absolutely amazed with how I feel now, I’ve had shin splints for 2 years due to running. I booked in with Seb and also had shockwave therapy with him. After just the first appointment I was already a lot more comfortable while running then I had been in the past 2 years. Im finally starting to feel like I can continue running and enjoy it again. Thank you to all at Castle Clinic and their healing hands 😁

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I found Jill to be calm, reassuring and helped me to deal with some panic attacks. She was very good at allowing me to focus on what I needed. As I said I wasn’t sure at first what this was, but she made me feel validated and working through some emotions was difficult at first, but she is very easy to open up to. I came away with what Jill likes to call a toolkit, which helps me manage day to day. I would definitely see Jill again if the need arose.

Having experienced ongoing pain with my hip flexor and glutes, I booked an appointment at The Castle Clinic on the recommendation of a friend. I have received excellent osteopathy treatment from Sebastian which has made a profound difference to my symptoms in just a few sessions. I am very grateful for the professional and attentive service I have received from both Sebastian and his team, and would wholeheartedly recommend the clinic to others. Thank you!

I had a really positive experience with Jill. I came for support during menopause while also working through some past trauma, and it made a real difference. I felt listened to, understood and completely at ease. The sessions gave me space to talk and helped me to make sense of what I was feeling, something I could not work through on my own. I would highly recommend sessions with Jill to anyone looking for a therapist.

I'm currently seeing an osteopath for rotator cuff issues - pain and tingling in hands and feet. I am being treated with Shockwave Therapy. Seb explores which tendons/muscles need treatment and then uses the Shockwave machine. Results are great just a couple of days following treatment. The treatment can be slightly uncomfortable, but it isn't for long and I find it very bearable. The clinic is warm, comfortable and welcoming. Highly recommend.

I’m a professional dancer and I first started receiving osteopathic treatment from Sebastian in 2016 following an injury. Since then, I’ve continued to see him regularly for both injury management and overall body maintenance. He has helped me significantly with ongoing lower back pain, treated tendinopathy in my shoulder, and more recently he is supporting my recovery from a calf tear. Sebastian’s osteopathic approach is thorough, knowledgeable, and very considered. He has an excellent understanding of how the body functions as a whole, particularly under the demands of a physically intense profession. His treatments are never just about short-term relief but about long-term recovery and resilience. I always feel listened to and confident in his care, and his work has been instrumental in keeping me healthy and performing. I highly recommend him to anyone considering osteopathy, whether for injury recovery or ongoing support.

I would highly recommend Daniel who was able to help me with my neck pain. When I arrived I couldn’t move my head at all as it was so painful in my neck. Daniel was able to relieve this and 2 days after the osteopathy I was able to move it completely as normal. I am so thankful that Castle clinic could fit me in the same day as I injured it and now I have no problems! Thank you so much!!

Osteopathy at Castle Clinic was recommended to me several years ago to help with my lower back pain for which I was struggling to find relief from other therapies. On assessment Seb was able to identify associated muscles and joints contributing to my back pain and provide necessary therapy of stretching and gentle manipulation. I absolutely recommend Seb at Castle Clinic for joint/muscle concerns to help with relieving pain and improving posture and mobility.

I am having Osteopathy treatment at Castle Clinic and it is being very beneficial. I came to see an osteopath several weeks ago because I was suffering from persistent severe headaches and thoracic back pain for which I was taking a lot of painkillers. After a short time my headaches have greatly reduced and now only occur very occasionally. I am currently having treatment for my back pain and it is helping tremendously. The osteopath told me that my spine is curved and he is working on helping to straighten this. I feel several inches taller when I leave the clinic, am feeling much better in my general health than before I began the treatment and am no longer relying on paracetamol and codeine to get through each day. I first came to Castle Clinic several years ago when I had damaged my rotary cuff and was having problems with restricted movement and pain in my shoulder. After several visits to the osteopath the problem was resolved and I haven't had any recurring rotary cuff issues since. I would recommend the osteopaths at Castle Clinic.

I had an issue with my shoulder for years. After having a particularly bad episode the wife convinced me to come down to Castle Clinic to get it sorted. It turned out it was actually an issue with my neck. If you have an issue with neck or shoulder pain like I did, I’d highly recommend getting an appointment here. Charlotte who helped me with my neck was really lovely, helpful and professional. Not only did she give treatment on the appointment but also helped me to make some really good exercise & changes to help with my neck issues.

I received excellent osteopathy and shockwave treatment from Seb for greater trochanteric pain syndrome (hip pain derived from my glute media). I was in quite alot of pain at rest and when walking prior to receiving my treatment on Monday. By Thursday and following Seb’s simple hip exercises I was pain free. This meant I was able to complete a hilly trail half marathon in the Lake District without any issue and in a surprisingly quick time. There is no way that would have been possible without the treatment - incredible! I’d highly recommend the shockwave treatment which I’m sure helped nip the issue in the bud.

I have suffered with bloating and stomach problems since 2019 until a friend of mine recommended Sandra Shackleton from the Castle Clinic. I booked an Allergy Test which gave some surprising results. After eliminating the foods which were upsetting me from my diet and some Health Kinesiology from Sandra it is now safe to say my life has been transformed. I no longer worry about what I can and can’t eat, especially when eating out! If you are currently suffering like I was, I would highly recommend Sandra. Worth every penny to now live a normal life again. Even my partner says I am like a different man. Thanks again.
