Fantastic experience: As this was my first appointment with Sam after my RTC injury, I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, I felt reassured, clearly informed throughout, and noticed rapid relief from the tension. I know this will be an ongoing process, and I’ve already scheduled my next session. Thank you, Sam.
Fantastic experience: Sam always manages to find the spots that are causing problems and my back always feels so much better after every treatment.
Fantastic experience: The treatment and customer service has been amazing. I had been suffering with back pain for so many years, but in a matter of a few sessions it's now so much better. I would fully recommend Sam and his team.
Fantastic experience: I visited the clinic because I was experiencing sharp pains in my knee which was preventing me from carrying simple tasks like sitting and walking up and down stairs without pain. Melissa Bellamy was able to identify the cause of the pain and provided me some exercises and a treatment plan which has stopped the knee pain altogether. I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone in need of Osteopathy.
Thank you for your lovely review and kinds words about Mel, glad she was able to help you!
Fantastic experience: I had a very enjoyable and productive session with osteopath Justine! I needed some pain relief while waiting for knee replacement surgery and she appreciated this and geared the treatment accordingly. I came away feeling much better and with information about the section of the Versus Arthritis website most useful to me and how best to use it. I must add that the whole decor of the clinic, inside and out, is very fresh and calming so the environment complements the therapy!
Thank you Fran, glad to hear Justine helped you with your knee issues!
Fantastic experience: I came to Sam with a running injury which had developed into potential nerve tingling and he was great at reliving the pain from with only a couple sessions. Not only did I feel an instant relief but he was also able to advise on next steps such as incorporating certain stretches and helped me get back to exercising. Extremely grateful and thank you again!
Thank you for your review Lisa, lovely to hear.
Fantastic experience: Sam is great…..makes me feel comfortable, explains everything, and the exercises he provides are relevant to the problem
Thank you Katie!
Fantastic experience: Not only do they provide a great service they are also great people too - would highly recommend
Thank you Alex, glad to hear
Fantastic experience: I have used The Well Clinic for many years and they always provide first class practitioners. I developed Sciatica symptoms for the first time after doing a few days of decorating. I made an appointment with Justin Knowles of Birmingham Osteopathy who now provide a clinic at The Well. She was very professional in diagnosing the source of the pain and provided immediate care and relief, putting me on the path to recovery. I will be returning for any further treatments and support. Thank you Justine x
Thank you Paul, glad to hear Justine has helped you with your aches and pains!
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Sam over the last three months for a 5yr old complex musculoskeletal running injury. He has been understanding, patient and empathetic with me. Importantly, he has got me back running at my best again, something I was almost giving up. And he does it all with a friendly and engaging spirit. I'd strongly recommend him if you're willing to follow his simple routine for rehab, it works!
Thank you for your lovely review Duncan
Fantastic experience: Sam was great in solving my back problems and suggesting exercises I could do to improve. Would definitely recommend.
Thank you Rachel!
Fantastic experience: Review for Sam Hodges – Birmingham Osteopathic Clinic I can’t recommend Sam highly enough. From my very first session, he has been brilliant. I arrived in quite a lot of trouble after years of injuries and exercise without adequate flexibility, struggling to walk due to a functional motor disorder. After seeing multiple physiotherapists, podiatrists, and other specialists with little success, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Sam took a thorough and holistic approach, focusing on movement rather than just isolated issues. Over four weeks, with a combination of key stretches and targeted soft tissue work, my mobility has transformed. I went from struggling to walk to now moving much more freely. His sessions are enjoyable, and he explains everything in a way that makes sense. He’s knowledgeable, friendly, and truly invested in helping his clients improve. If you’re looking for someone who takes a whole-body approach and delivers real results, I’d highly recommend Sam. John
Thank you John, really appreciate your thoughts!

Fantastic experience: Sam's treatment has really sorted out my chronic back problem. For years have been completely out of action for a couple of days, every fee months, due to back pain. Pain virtually non- existent now and I know how best to deal with twinges. Couldn't be more satisfied.
Thank you for your kind words Maggie!
Fantastic experience: I have been seen by Mellissa for the past 2 Years and in this time she has diagnosed and treated all my Hamstring, Calf and Glute injuries. This has allowed me to contine Training and racing without any reoccurring injuries. I can't speak more highly of her work and recommend anyone to see her. I have seen a lot of people over the years for various issues and must say Mellissa is the only person I will now see.
Thank you Stephen

Thank you Sally!
Fantastic experience: Sam's the best! Both me and my partner have been coming to him for almost 2 years. My partner used to get back pain that would put him in A&E but with maintenance from seeing Sam he's been really good. I go regularly too as has fixed my chronic back pain from desk work!
Thank you Annalise!
Fantastic experience: I initially went to Sam a couple of years ago with severe neck pain and really limited movement of my neck. It took patience and perseverance, but Sam was excellent all the way. He really is an expert and a credit to his profession. I no longer have issues with my neck; however I still use his services fairly regularly to treat any back pain, aches or discomfort. I would recommend this service to anyone.
Thank you Connor
Negative experience: I would have been better off, spending my £50 in a massage parlor. At least, I would have had, some relief!!!!!
Hi Joseph, I am sorry you felt the need to leave a negative review rather than contact me directly to sort any issues out. After explaining the treatment plan and process to you, you decided not to book a follow up appointment. Whilst this is fine, not all issues can be resolved in one session. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to reach out. Kind Regards, Sam
Fantastic experience: The back massage I received from Sam was really helpful in reliving my extreme pain. I highly recommend him at the Well clinic in Kings Heath.
Thank you Manjula!
Fantastic experience: I've recently started treatment with Melissa, who has been fantastic. She first investigated with questions and careful physical testing of mobility and discomfort, then explained what she thought was going on. And then used targeted manipulation to work into the tissue, which felt at just the right level of pressure. She then gave me simple exercises to do every day and encouragement to do so. She also reassured me that it would heal with all of those elements in place. A very professional, friendly practitioner for dealing with musculoskeletal issues.
Thank you Daniel, glad to hear Melissa is looking after you!
Fantastic experience: Kings Heath Birmingham Osteopathy run by Sam Hodges is an excellent practice that provides very professional services at competitive prices. Sam makes the whole experience relaxing and takes his time to personalise the advice and treatment provided, so you get the most out of your visits. Highly recommended.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!
Fantastic experience: Sam is a credit to his profession,he clearly has a wide range of knowledge when it comes to different ailments with the back and spine. I have been attending his practice for about 6 months while I await a nhs appointment for bulging discs. Attending helps me manage my pain but also seeing Sam's face just makes my day. He very caring and puts you at ease.
Thank you Sarah
Fantastic experience: Sam is great. Excellent consultation and diagnostic skills. All you'd hope for in professionalism and experience, as well as a warm and good character, which is important to help one receive treatment. Gave great advice to help with continued 'at home' therapy. Sam was recommended to me by a friend and I recommend him to you!
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Sam was incredibly helpful and completely solved my acute back pain over a number of sessions. He was very friendly, professional and reassured me throughout the process of healing my back. I would thoroughly recommend his services.
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: Sam is the best osteopath but also chiropractor I have seen. His work is great, I have never actually left a treatment from other places and noticed instantly better posture and mobility. But I do when treated by Sam. He is an expert when it comes to knowing how the body works and improving your movement. He is also a genuine nice guy which leads you to having a really good experience.
Thank you for your review, glad to hear!

Fantastic experience: Sam is brilliant and has really helped me recover from my injury over the last few months. Great guy. Highly recommend.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I was experiencing extremely bad back pain and literally found it hard to walk in the mornings. I would have to drag myself out of bed and then stand for about 5 minutes until my legs started to work. Almost felt like it would be a never ending case. A friend recommended Sam and I took him up on the offer. Went down and was pleasantly surprised by the relaxed atmosphere. Sam took his time and tried to narrow down the root cause of the problem. After a briefing Sam got straight to work twisting and turning my ligaments with just the right amount of pressure to realign the body to it's natural position. I was given exercises to do at home which I carried out and after several sessions I'm fine and back to my normal self. Amazing service and highly recommended to anyone looking for a great Osteopath.
Thank you very much!
Fantastic experience: Incredibly knowledgeable osteopath who I can always rely on for all my aches and pains.
