This has been my first experience with Osteopathy and I didn't quite know what to expect. With a long line injuries, both major and minor, and being in chronic pain, I was ready to try something new. I noticed a difference from the very first session. David is amazing at helping relive pain and helping you to work towards longer term solutions. He takes every care in making sure you are understanding what he's doing and why. He never rushes you out or make you feel as if you are an inconvenience, like many people can do. I highly recommend visiting Soma, even if you just have headaches occasionally or a small back pain that you think will just go away on it's own. It could be a part of something larger and better to get it dealt with. I receive therapeutic massages form Claire - and am all the better for it. She works in conjunction with my Osteopath sessions and we ensure that each session helps me to reach my ultimate goals to improve various muscles and long term trauma. My last session alone has given me full range of motion in my neck again. She has a great personality and is very skilled at what she does, often sending you away with things you can do on your own to continue improving. All of the staff are extremely friendly, helpful and are willing to go that extra step to make sure your visits are comfortable and suited to your needs.

I was very impressed with the set up, knowledge, and treatment that Robbie administered. I've…read moresuffered with lower back problems for many years, and been to see various osteopaths and chiropractors but to no avail. Harmonic was recommended by a colleague, and after the initial consultation, it was clear that this was something different. My back is as good as new, and I haven't been troubled for some time. Robbie recommended monthly appointments, and to be free from pain, this is a price worth paying. Sore back...? Give this guy a go.

From the owner: what harmonic osteopathy does instantly is to reintroduce you to your body, to why it does what it…read moredoes, and to why it feels the way it does. Using rhythmic oscillatory movements we unlock habitual tensions to relieve pain and restore normal movement. It is osteopathy without the need for loud cracks or pops. . Passive motion, such as is used in harmonic techniques, is clinically proven to facilitate recovery from injury, improve healing and resolve pain.

She makes you feel very comfortable while she works, communicating with you about what she's finding and what is often the cause for that particular imbalance/etc. I've been seeing Clotilde on and off for years. I first went to her about a specific problem in relation to my neck. She gently worked with my joints/muscles/spine/pelvis and gave me a few stretches and exercises to work on. After only just a couple of sessions with her, I've been fine ever since. I saw her recently about pregnancy related pain. She has quite a lot of experience working with pregnant women and made sure the whole time that the bump and I were comfortable and supported while she worked. I left feeling quite a bit better with with firm instructions to NOT CROSS MY LEGS. I love practitioners who give you advice and exercises to ensure that the pain doesn't come back - in doing so they're actually creating a situation where you don't need to visit them repeatedly and it means that they're more interested in helping you to get better than making money.

I 'inherited' this medical practice as my own on moving to Edinburgh with my family. This was the…read morefamily doctors my wife went to when growing up here and so it made sense we make it my families own. I'm not too sure how you can review a medical practice so will attempt to focus and highlight the main things one looks for when visiting a doctor. So here we go... 1. Ease of making an appointment - pretty good. On average there are between 4-7 doctors available each day and although we now see one if them as the family doctor, should we not be able to get a timely enough appointment, We've always managed to see one of the others the very next day. 2. Waiting time once there - very good. Only ever waited a max. of 10 mins after the allotted appointment time. 3. The doctors themselves - this is an obvious statement, but each doctor to their own! They all appear caring, knowledgeable and attentive....and most importantly, capable! In all our experiences in attending this centre, they have been positive and timely. Not that We are keen to make a habit of lobbing here, but when we do I know we'll be looked after.

The West End Medical Practice is an NHS practice located on Chester Street in the heart of…read moreEdinburgh's West End. The practice has several doctors and as I am not too fussy so long as a doctor listens to me, I have seen all the doctors who work here and have been impressed with all of them. The practice also has two nurses on duty who are very friendly and professional. I recently had cause to use the nurse on a regular basis to have dressings changed following an accident and they made a painful and distressing experience one that was actually bearable. The practice also has a Diabetes Clinic which operates every week and ensures those who have diabetes are seen regularly without having to go to hospital. My only complaint about the practice is sometimes it can be nigh on impossible to get through to them on the phone. This isn't too much of a problem for me as I live close by and can go to reception to make an appointment but if you need a doctor's appointment in a hurry and cannot do this it can be quite frustrating. Also, the surgeries are held in the basement of the building, which means people with mobility problems struggle to get to see a doctor. Some surgeries are held on the ground level but there are still stairs at the front entrance. Overall however this is a good practice and I have been very impressed with the service the staff provide.
