Fantastic experience: I’ve had a fantastic experience with Jemma. She’s professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to understand my concerns before creating a treatment plan that really worked. I noticed a significant improvement after just a few sessions, and she made me feel comfortable throughout. I highly recommend Jemma to anyone looking for a skilled and caring osteopath.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic! Lucy gave me advice and exercises as well as providing treatment. Feel confident that I’m doing the right things to aid my recovery now.
Fantastic experience: Listened well, assessed my issue and gently helped move towards a solution, fully explaining as she went. Gave me a good understanding of the problem and exercises to help. Felt 100% better next morning. Wish I had found her years ago .

Fantastic experience: Jemma has been amazing at helping with my shoulder and knee injuries. I’ve had long term issues with my shoulder, and after just one session with Jemma, it was feeling so much better than it has for years. Would highly recommend to anyone - Jemma is also really friendly and lovely to chat to.

Fantastic experience: Jemma provides a fantastic service and is very thorough with detailed explanations of what we are trying to achieve with various movements and treatments. At my age, I’ve had a lot of physio and chiropractic treatment and this is by far the best.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are very happy to hear you have had a great experience. :)
Fantastic experience: Lucy is a remarkable professional who prioritises client needs. She was flexible and responsive to my individual requirements, both in dedicating her time and attention and in tailoring my treatment options. She was also very generous in sharing her knowledge, explaining the causes of some concerning symptoms and, after each appointment, providing me with a few stretches and exercises to aid my recovery.

Thank you, for your lovely comment.
Fantastic experience: Lucy is amazing! I've been seeing her for my sciatica which was new and scary for me. She identified the problem, explained everything to me and treated me.

Fantastic experience: My first visit today to Jemma she was excellent I felt at ease and she identified and was very thorough with my assessment.Been looking for an osteopath for sometime I would recommend her highly.
Fantastic experience: Briilliant service. Jemma is so knowledgeable, professional yet friendly and puts you at ease immediately. I needed two appointments as I had inflammation at my facet lower back I was in a lot of pain. After my follow up appointment I felt 99% better!!! I have been sent exercises and care to keep on top of it. Thank you so much
Fantastic experience: I couldn't rate enough! I've seen chiropractors in the past but I will always use Jemma now. She asks many questions, assesses your whole body and posture to help address and fix the problems. She's helped with my neck, back and ribs. She's very relaxing and caring too. So worth the money.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service I feel very safe and secure in Lucy's hands.
Fantastic experience: Best treatment I’ve ever had thank you And so accommodating and flexible! Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Jemma has literally transformed my life. I can move without feeling pain. Could not recommend her highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing Gemma is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I’ve been in pain for a number of months and now feel so much better. I’m so grateful to her
Fantastic experience: I visited Jemma for the treatment of frequent migraines and accompanying shoulder tension after struggling for several years. From my initial consultation, Jemma was extremely attentive and keen to thoroughly understand the potential cause of my migraines. The treatment plan was explained clearly in each session, and she ensured I was comfortable with/had input into the planned approaches to treat my headaches throughout. After several weeks of sessions, I have identified significant improvements in the initial tension, and my migraines have become noticeably less frequent. I would absolutely recommend Jemma for any migraine/headache issues, as a friendly, attentive and highly knowledgable professional!
Thank you Emily for your kind review and happy I was able to help :)
Fantastic experience: Jemma has been amazing at providing an amazing service that has helped immensely with headache reduction even after only a handful of sessions. Highly recommend!!!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Really pleased I could help :)
Fantastic experience: Fountain of knowledge
Thank you Ross :)
Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend enough. Jemma has extensive knowledge and I’ve already noticed improvements in my issue after just a couple of sessions. She is extremely polite, very friendly with a highly professional approach to her work. I’ve been to different osteopaths over the years but Jemma is definitely the best and wish I’d found her sooner. Anyone looking for a highly skilled osteopath with a wealth of knowledge definitely go see Jemma
Thank you Mike for your kind words. Happy we are able to help.
Fantastic experience: Friendly and focused on reducing pain and improving quality of life. Would definitely recommend
Thank you Mike for leaving us a replay and happy we can help.
Fantastic experience: Lucy was able to diagnose my issue within one session, her treatment relieved my pain in my hip and I was able to sleep at night again. Jemma also gave some detailed and insightful advice. Would highly recommend them both.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and happy we could both help you :)
Fantastic experience: Jemma was fantastic. As someone has who engages in a lot of sports, and has the collection of issues that comes with that, she was fantastic at rooting them out and slowly working through each one. Very communicative during the appointment on what was happening and why. So I felt very comfortable giving her the trust to get done what she needed to, to make me feel better. Side note: She is based in a gym which is also GREAT!
Thank you Jon, pleased I could help :)
Fantastic experience: Been using Jemma for probably 10yrs +. Countless times over the years Jemma has been able to identify and sort out my aches and pains.
Thank you for leaving us a review. Happy I have been able to help for the past 10 years :)
Fantastic experience: A truly fantastic osteopathy service. Jemma is professional, knowledgeable and incredibly supportive in helping you to achieve your rehabilitation goals. A truly holistic treatment approach from Pilates to innovative treatments. Can’t recommend highly enough.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review it is much appreciated. Thank you for your kind words, happy we could help :)
Fantastic experience: I joined Jemma's Pilate sessions very nervously 2 years ago but soon became confident thanks to Jemma's encouragement and enthusiasm. She's a brilliant teacher and I really look forward to the classes. Thanks Jemma
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. You are a great pilates member :)
Fantastic experience: Jemma gave an honest assessment of my knee problem before explaining that it cannot be cured, only mitigated. She doesn't promise miracles just to take your money. Very impressive.
Thank you Pauline for taking the time to leave us a review :)
Fantastic experience: Brilliant Pilates sessions on Zoom. Great atmosphere and variety of exercises.
Thank you, Great to see you each week :)
Fantastic experience: A hamstring tendinitis issue left me completely unable to do the sport I love but thanks to Jemma and her amazing shockwave treatment I’m already well on the way to being back to full strength after just a few treatments. The shockwave treatment isn’t painful but is highly effective and Jemma is extremely knowledgeable with her diagnosis and the treatment is very reasonably priced compared to other practitioners in the area. Thank you Jemma for getting me back on track so quickly at a price I could afford!
You are very welcome and so pleased you have found shockwave to be a benefit for you and get you back to training. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review :)
Fantastic experience: WOW! I have had a lower back issue for 26 years and have had so many different treatments from so many different practitioners over that time, that I really have lost count. Today I was treated by Jemma Shaw and can honestly say that it was THE best treatment I have ever had. And nobody has ever offered or even spoken about the various ways I was treated earlier. For the first time, I actually feel that someone has the passion, knowledge and experience to perhaps finally help sort this long-term issue out. Already booked back in for 2-weeks time. Highly recommended!! Thank you Jemma
Thank you Andy. Very happy to help and so pleased you're feeling the benefits. We appreciate you taking the time to review :)
Fantastic experience: Thorough assessment, Professional yet friendly approach and a successful treatment. Already booked a followup. Highly recommended
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, it is much appreciated.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us feedback. Happy we could help.
Fantastic experience: Jemma was fantastic. I’d never seen an osteopath before but felt at ease. Jemma was informative and professional. Jemma has helped ease my back pain after the first visit.
Thank you, pleased I could help :)
Fantastic experience: Had my first visit today with Emma . Very friendly and professional. Didn’t expect to feel so much better after just one session! Thank you
You are very welcome, happy I could help.
Fantastic experience: Jemma is a fantastic Osteopath operating in Millbrook, Southampton. Her knowledge and hands-on skills have really helped my hip post surgery and eased headaches with neck and shoulder work. I really enjoy the fact she combines her treatment with strength exercises and Pilates! I have referred other people to her who live in the area, she also lectures other Osteopaths in London. Great to know my friends and family are in good hands!
Thank you for your review and kind words, happy I could help.
Fantastic experience: Have known Jemma for a number of years now and I fully trust her to treat all my injuries which occur whilst training whether it be as minor as releasing tight muscles or as major as adjusting my spine. She is very knowledgeable and brilliant at explaining each step of the treatment to ensure that I am comfortable with what's happening. Highly recommend!
Thank you :) always happy to help :)
Fantastic experience: I started seeing Jemma due to problems with both shoulders that had been giving me isues for a few years - despite trying many things to fix them, I was stuck. I've been training in various ways for 20+ years and curretly do CrossFit which puts a lot of load and volume through the shoulders while requiring a good range of motion - all of this was a problem. I didn't want to rest and miss loads of training so with a good diagnosis, a few treatments and some homework we were able to keep me training while progressing the health of my shoulders over a few sessions. A few months on and my shoulders are working very well; I can do all the movements required of CrossFit, training every day and putting a lot of work through my shoulders. I now see Jemma every 4 weeks for an maintenance visit just to make sure everything is working as it should - not just the shoulders but other areas as necessary. I strongly recommend seeing Jemma if you have any issues...but even if you don't. I now see Jemma to help enable training longevity and prevent future injury. I want to be able to train lots but need to keep on top of recovery - which isn't helped by an office based job. I've recommended Jemma to many friends with a range of issues and she's made a positive impact to all.
Fantastic experience: I train at the gym where Jemma has her clinic based. Having gone through multiple knee operations and having a multitude of issues as a result of long term use of walking aids I was really struggling with hip and lower back issues, none of which were remedied by other healthcare professionals. I had an assessment and treatment session with Jemma and her prescribed exercises and treatment immediately reduced my hip pain and increased my mobility. After 3 months I was able to undertake more intense training and had barely any issues
Thank you, always happy to help :)
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Jemma for a number of years now and cannot recommend her highly enough. As a GB athlete I spent a long time searching for someone who I trusted enough to deal with any sports related injuries. So far, Jemma has sorted out problems with my shoulder, back and wrist. I am constantly surprised by the amount of treatments she is able to offer. She also makes you feel at ease immediately and her gym/sporting knowledge is second to none. I recommended her to many friends and family.
Fantastic experience: Nice facility and clever staff
Fantastic experience: Jemma is my go-to whenever I pick up any sports-related injuries. She always gets me back to full fitness and pain-free, fast. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I have been having treatment from Jemma since 2013. Jemma has been able to effectively treat any injury that I have picked up in the past 8 years and has helped me through some very challenging injuries that have even prevented me from working. Jemma's knowledge is outstanding, Jemma will always explain what is causing the issue and what treatment to apply to solve the issue. I would recommend Jemma to anyone for any problem they may have.
Fantastic experience: Jemma is extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. As a client I feel highly valued and would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Jemma is excellent, to be recommended!
Fantastic experience: Been using jemma now for over for 4 years Very knowledgeable in her field of work ,makes you at ease listen and explain everything to you when your having treatment. Wouldn't use anyone else. Great vale for money too .
Fantastic experience: Jemma is friendly and very knowledgeable and understanding of individual needs. Definitely the best Osteopath to go to!
Fantastic experience: Great experience all round very knowledgeable and amazing service - would recommend to anyone
Fantastic experience: Jemma really is fabulous, the perfect combination of professional and friendly. I've had problems with my back and hips for years and she sat me down and we started from the beginning, I was impressed with how well she listened and how thorough she was. I've had a few sessions now and always come out feeling amazing, which has made me believe that I can manage my problems rather than just "putting up with them". I really can't recommend her enough, especially as she does the whole session whilst having a lovely chat and a laugh, you just can't go wrong with that.
Fantastic experience: After nearly 15 years of back pain and after seeing a whole host of Chiropractors not helping me after countless visits, I thought I'd give an Osteopath a go and came into contact with Jemma who sorted my back after only a few short sessions! Been back a few times since for other aches and pains and Jemma has sorted it all out no problem.
