I have always come to Lola with my various aches and pains over the years. Most recently I was suffering acute back spasms that was a response to nerve pain down my left leg to my foot. Although in my 50s now I am pretty active across a range of activities, but this was making most exercise quite painful and potentially risky in my mind. Through a series of online video consultations with Lola and steady progress through various rehabilitation exercises sent through via a link, I am in much better shape and am planning a 100km cycle in Cornwall in September and a 7km sea swim in October. Hopefully skiing too over the winter. This is very much down to Lola's calm and holistic approach to understanding the real causes of pain, great advise and a proper rehabilitation plan. Less

Lola & team are wonderful!
I love my monthly appointments at HiM - they help me keep on top of any niggling pains. The treatment staff are all professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
Very friendly and helpful service helping me cope with aches and pains
Have always left either Lola or Sam with a positive feeling. They are both very professional and make the appointments very worthwill. Have recommended a few people to the practice.
Lola is a fantastic osteopath!
Came in following an injury. Sam was fantastic. Very attentive and I felt the difference from the first session. Definitely recommend.
Absolutely brilliant! I am grateful to Sam for all the help.

I have suffered from migraines since the age of 13, I am 32 today. It got worse over the years and in January of 2021 I suffered a 20 day long migraine and was desperate for some relief. I tried over 5 heavy prescription medications that did not work and gave me horrible side effects and I have been told by countless doctors over the years that I just need to 'drink more water'. I have now been seeing Arthur for the past 6 months or so and my migraines have declined significantly: I had 20 migraines in February of this year, 14 in March, 7 in April and so far 2 in May. I am beyond relieved, beyond happy and beyond grateful. They are all lovely and professional and Arthur is amazing at what he does. I never thought my migraines was so connected to my back pain but today I am able to tell when and what adjustment I need and I walk out of there like a new person every time. Couldn't recommend Health in Motion and Arthur enough. Thank you for giving me quality of life back. Less
I went to Health in Motion seeking help with long-term foot pain. This became worse as I worked from my home office during the pandemic. Normally an active person with a love of walking and running, I was avoiding even short walks to the local shops. Working with Edric, I gradually regained my lost capabilities and confidence. I am now back to my old self - even running 5ks on a weekly basis.... More

I couldn’t be happier with the service! The team are always friendly and it’s a pleasure to walk in and be greeted by such lovely front of house staff. I came to HIM suffering terribly and Lucy has been outstanding! I am no longer in pain! All treatments have been followed up by exercises that I can do at home. I couldn’t compliment Lucy any higher!
I always receive excellent customer service here. Lucy provides amazing treatments and very helpful advice to maintain all of her hard work! Very happy to recommend Health in Motion.
Lucy really helped to relieve my back pain. I would wholeheartedly recommend Health in Motion. They are so kind and so professional.
*fantastic service* Health in motion were fantastic over multiple sessions. Staff are extremely friendly and easy going. A great experience.
The practitioners, the receptionists and the treatment
I'm glad that I checked into Health in Motion osteopath. Having had 4 sessions, i can say I'm on my way to having a more flexible lower body. Ed has done a great job in treating my lower back. The exercises that he recommended proved to be very effective. No regrets whatsoever. 👍👍
Lucy has been very helpful with my treatment and my sciatica pain is under control thanks to her personalised exercises and her expertise. The massages are very relaxing and I am left feeling renewed after every appointment.
Absolutely superb. Excellent service. Have become a member.
Video appointment for my shoulder was brilliant. Was a bit sceptical about how you could have an osteopathy appointment online as I thought it would need to be in person but it was still really effective. Lola was able to work out the cause of pain and gave me exercises and tips to alleviate it.
Excellent clinic, my experience was very good, I came to them advised by a friend, with incredible back pain and not being able to move from bed for 3 days until I decided to go.

Excellent clinic, my experience was very good, I came to them advised by a friend, with incredible back pain and not being able to move from bed for 3 days until I decided to go. The doctors said it was a back problem and I was only relieved by strong pain meds which only effect was to send me to sleep. When I got to my appointment, Eric was very professional. With 2 consultations my change was incredible, I could walk without so much pain. And his diagnosis was that it was a muscle between the back and the abdomen, I worked on it in a few days I returned to my work and I was able to do exercises again. I really recommend this clinic, they are very professional and I am delighted to share my experience. Less

My daughter has been going to Health in Motion for a year to get treatment for her scoliosis and it has been really good for her. Lola is a brilliant therapist who is very gentle and makes what can be a scary and uncomfortable experience for my daughter something that is enjoyable and something she looks forward to.

I originally sought help for lower back pain, which they were brilliant with, however after developing long Covid Lola has been excellent in helping me open up my lungs and chest. The improvement has been remarkable in helping me breathe and sleep better than I have in weeks and has without doubt sped up my recovery. Lovely people too! Less
Niggling issue with semi-frozen shoulder. Resolved by Ed after treatment. Ed also helped out with an issue with my left quad that he found when doing an "ordinary" sports massage on my quads. For the cyclists out there, resolving this issue really helped with my left right power balance (!)
After trying to self diagnose and treat runners knee for a couple of months, Lola got me up and running within 2 weeks of treatment. Got the job done with minimum fuss. You do have to follow their advice though. But really excellent. One happy camper.
The reason of the one star rating is because the manager of Health in Motion decided to raise the treatment the vicious way: instead of rising in ‘£’, he decided to cut down the time from 40 minutes to 30 minutes. If you take 5 minutes to undress, redress, and a few minutes for the osteopath to proceed with the check-up, it leaves 15 minutes treatment!!! Before, you could hope for 30 minutes trea... More
The reason of the one star rating is because the manager of Health in Motion decided to raise the treatment the vicious way: instead of rising in ‘£’, he decided to cut down the time from 40 minutes to 30 minutes. If you take 5 minutes to undress, redress, and a few minutes for the osteopath to proceed with the check-up, it leaves 15 minutes treatment!!! Before, you could hope for 30 minutes treatment. With this new rule, one will need to book more appointments to see results! Thumbs up to you mister the manager, you definitely are a very clever man! This is extortion! You are not considerate at all, and totally lacking respect for the patients - not to mention, such rise during Covid when a lot of people earn much less! You should be proud of yourself! I leave it to everyone to judge if it still is worth going back there! That being said, Eds is a fantastic osteopath! ========================================================= This is a response to the manger’s reply below. 1) Sir, you completely missed my point, by reducing the time of the treatment, as a patient how can you get results in 15 minutes? That’s a fact 15 minutes, may be 18 minutes max of treatment. This means one has to book an extra appointment, take more time off, etc…. 2) If you had a plan, come back after some time for the same recurring problem, you don’t necessarily need another plan, but one visit to fix a problem – now it will be two. 3) If the demand is so high, why not hiring another osteopath for evenings and Saturday mornings as it would be greatly appreciated by people who have great difficulties to get time free during the day – 17.40 being the last appointment, pretty early, don’t you think? 4) If you were so concerned about efficiency and the wellbeing of the patients, then you would consider ALL of the above, but reducing the time is definitely against any results, instead it forces people to take more appointments! 5) Last but not least your reply is all about making more publicity for your business than showing real interest in improving the service!

Great osteopath - Lola has kept me on my feet for the past couple of years during a very challenging pregnancy and since. I recently saw Eds for the first time who has worked wonders on my very painful neck and shoulders!
I recently took up running which resulted in pain to my hip and knee. I had a online consultation Lola. She asked my to move in certain ways and describe where the discomfort was. She then took me through a series of exercises and emailed confirmation. I followed the exercise plan and the issue was resolved and I have been able to continue running.

I had a new appointment booked here at the beginning of lockdown. Of course this had to be postponed but Lola suggested, as my problem was with my arm, she may be able to help through using video calls. I agreed to meeting on video calls and I have to say that over the past 7 weeks it has been really great and I feel that she has really helped me. It has been really convenient, not having to travel and appointments have been really easy to access. The video call system is very easy to use (we're all used to it now!) and the picture and audio are really clear. Lola has been really keen to ensure that she sees me clearly when I tried out exercises and the exercise plan was always clear with diagrams, clear explanation and a link in order to see the exercise done properly on YouTube. All in all it has been a great experience having socially distanced appointments and has been great not to have to wait until July or later to have an appointment. I've not had to wait for my arm to improve and also to learn the strategies and strengthening exercises in order to ensure that I don't strain it in the same way again. Of course, it will always be better to see an Osteopath in person but I think that this alternative has been really worthwhile and useful and I would highly recommend Lola and her team for the work they do and commend her for considering how she can help her clients, at a time when face to face appointments have been impossible. Thank you Health in Motion! Less

I was fortunate to have met Lola who clearly outlined the process, information and tasks required for her to make an assessment.

A brilliant and friendly clinic which I have used over the past few years, what ever the problem may be. Lola has been excellent with the video calls after I suffered a serious back problem recently during lock down, and has helped me get back on track with great advice, exercises and stretches.
Thank you for the video consultations. I had a knee pain from running. I am able to run again after 3 video sessions. Excellent job.
I was lucky that Eds was able to see me when I had a neck problem while away from home. I found the clinic beautiful, relaxing and impeccably clean and Eds was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I know now who to go to if I have a similar problem. Thank you very much Eds.
Thanks to Lola, Health in Motion, for relevant treatment and suggested exercises I am feeling a lot better. Would not hesitate to recommend this practice.
Very experienced team of osteopaths. I went to them with a diagnosis from a local hospital which said I had soft tissue damage. Health in Motion Osteopaths were not happy with that diagnosis and advised me to have an MRI done since they suspected it was a ruptured quadricep tendon. It turned out that it WAS, and a week later I had surgery to repair and reattach the tendon.
Excellent session with Eds, he was thorough and able to spot the issues I had, work on them in the session and gave me exercises to undertake afterwards. Very professional and has really helped to ease the injury. Thank you.
Really helped sort-out issue with hip - Thank you!
I found them most helpful . My symptoms have decreased. They have been gentle ,courteous, kind & professional. I would recommend them to any one who has back & joint problems.
Personal and friendly with good communication and years of experience. Would highly recommend.
Very professional!
Great service from Eds at Health in Motion. Homed in on the source of my back trouble and gave great advice regarding effective exercises. There was no pressure to make a follow up appointment just see how you get on and come back if you need to. Highly recommended- Thanks very much
I was given an Excellent professional qualified advise and guidance with actual debatable reasonings. I strongly recommend people with any pain not to deprive themselves in not visiting this clinic.
I have been attending Health in Motion for some months with different injuries. First tennis elbow then a pain in my knee.. He has solved the problem with my elbow and is helping me get back to fitness as regards my knee. I have found Eds very knowledgeable in the mechanics of the human body. Excellent/professional service. Regards Laurence Mckidd
Very professional service. When I went to see Lola I could hardly move my leg in any direction without severe pain and in a matter of days I was pain-free. Really impressed and grateful.
Lola sorted out my hip pain in two appointments!
Did my back in after bending, and was in extreme pain and almost unable to move. Called health in Motion who saw me the same day and again the following week. Sorted me out straight away. Supposed to go for a third session but have been ill (something entirely unrelated) so not been back for third session yet. Excellent service and treatment.

I came to see Lola at Health in Motion 3 months before the otillo swim run event I was entered into. Having had a knee op last October I was particular concerned about being able to complete the event without pain and long term damage. I also live with extremely tight hams and calf muscles, so lots to fix. Lola and the team listened to my needs and with a combination of treatment and exercise/rehab plans got me to the start line ready to compete. I was particularly impressed with how I was advised to go back to very light exercise and stretching initially, do not rush into the longer distance prep etc. I cannot stress how amazing this pre and post activity routine improved my training. The event was last Sunday and was a success. 29km of trail running and 9k of open water swimming around the Isles of Scilly. I feel fine now. This is down so much to the treatment and preparation plan prepared by Health in Motion. Thank you!!! Less
Lola is amazing and Has helped me so much.
I always receive effective, well thought out treatment here. I feel listened to, understood and treated with sympathy. Highly recommended.
Very happy with Health In Motion Osteopaths. They take great care of their patients and explain everything clearly. Working our way through my various problems.
I bring my mum here for osteopathy treatment which is making a difference. This is a private practice so is a little experience but the results can be seen after a few visits (2 to 3).
I would like to say that you deserve 5 star becouse i have been suffering for almost a month with pain in my jaw. Lola helped me with the TMJ (lock jaw). I feel much better already only with one session so far.. Very professional very clean and very happy with the result of my treatment. Receptionists are very polite and helpful. Thank you Lola Worth trying Dora
Friendly, informative staff who know exactly what they're doing. Great atmosphere too.
Jon Juviler has really been very helpful in sorting out my recent lower back injury. Getting stronger each day :-)
The circulation in my leg after an accident a couple of years back is much improved after treatment from Lola at HIM. I have since gone back recently to seek treatment for my back and shoulder as well - HIM was the first place I thought of when I started experiencing problems and ONLY choice of practitioner for me. Honest, consistent, expert advice and effective course of treatment.
