Osteopath based in Guildford

Osteopathy is an effective hands-on approach involving highly skilled diagnosis and treatment, supported by practical lifestyle advice to enable patients to maintain optimal physical health and return to daily and/or sports-related activities.

Osteopaths are highly competent Healthcare Professionals recognised by the NHS as fully qualified to diagnose and treat independently.

Utilising an initial movement assessment and a highly developed sense of touch, they identify problem areas of the body. Using gentle stretching, soft tissue and mobilising techniques as well as manipulating joints, an osteopath will improve the health of the affected tissue and the body as a whole.

    Scar tissue management

    Scar tissue creates permanent mechanical irritation by forcing tissue to rub against each other. The innervation around the scar tissue can be affected, which may produce localised and generalised spasms. This further can cause discomfort, super-sensitivity or even pain in the tissue.

    I saw Zaneta to help with back and neck pain brought on by pregnancy and breastfeeding. I was impressed with her attention to detail when doing the consultation and felt she really focused on the problems I'd described when treating me. She was very clear in communicating what she was doing and why she was using certain techniques which i found helpful and she took the time at the end to discuss how I could protect my back in the future. I was experiencing quite a bit of pain and immobility before seeing her and after two treatments am back to normal! Highly recommend her.

    Catherine Horsnall

    Zaneta has been working with me for over 2 years now on my ankle replacement recovery. She is extremely knowledgeable and has been a key part of making such a strong recovery. She has worked on the scar tissue on my ankle, with techniques such as the Graston technique.


    I had a limp when I first met her, was very weak and lacked confidence! 2 years later I’m able do things such as ski and I had gained knowledge that I’m able to practice on independently.

    Meity Lam

    Zaneta is an amazing Osteopath and sports rehabilitator. She has helped me to provide effective solutions for my ankle injuries. She is extremely knowledgeable in her field and can expertly use different treatments such as rehabilitation and manual therapy. She provides personal home programmes to follow which greatly helped me too.
