Osteopathy for Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP) or Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD)

I was becoming more physically disabled and after giving birth was unable to lift my son without assistance. Tunbridge Wells Osteopaths has given me my independence back. My body feels free and it is really exciting to think I can now lift my son without so much strain and anguish.

I never needed to use crutches, or a wheelchair during my fourth pregnancy, despite being disabled in my third pregnancy. I would urge any SPD sufferer or indeed, anyone suffering back pain to visit Quentin at Tunbridge Wells Osteopaths. His skills as an osteopath are quite extraordinary. I would go so far as to say he has x-ray vision.

All advice went against everything I’d read or been told by other health professionals, but I was prepared to listen to the expert, bearing in mind nobody else seemed to have anything positive to say about SPD. I continued to see Quentin throughout the remainder of my pregnancy and remained crutch free and in little or no pain.

A GP who had herself suffered from SPD gave us the details of an Osteopath in Tunbridge Wells who came highly recommended as an expert. SPD is not something you need to put up with: The proper treatment can change your life.

I expected SPD to go away after pregnancy, but continued to get pelvic, hip, and sacroiliac joint pain. I really felt old before my time. I went to see Tunbridge Wells Osteopaths and Quentin told me more in five minutes than anyone had been able to tell me in five years!

I lived on a concoction of prescription painkillers that rendered me senseless. Despite being two counties away from Tunbridge Wells, I thought it was worth a shot. Quentin instantly saw the appalling state my posture was in and set about fixing me. [Many] years on, I cannot thank Quentin enough for giving me my life back

I was in pain nearly all the time after a horrific pregnancy with SPD. Prior to meeting Quentin, I never thought I’d risk having a second child. And yet during my second pregnancy Quentin kept me on my feet with barely a twinge. I am so grateful.

My life was a mess. I knew I couldn’t spend another year moving between relapses and doctors visits. I had originally dismissed Tunbridge Wells due to the distance between us (I live in Staffordshire) but I knew I had to give it a go. 

[Visiting Tunbridge Wells Osteopaths] was the catalyst to my change in fortune. I hobbled into the reception area on my crutches and left with no crutches, and no need for them either.

It was only after visiting Quentin, I realised it didn’t need to be this way. From my first visit it was transformational. I hadn’t realised how much my life had been impacted.  I had been managing my back for years and was not physically free. Over the course of 3 or 4 sessions, it was like a cloud of head fog cleared. I was able to get back to normal life.  I was able to exercise and travel again without worrying or carrying ice packs everywhere with me.”
