Body Care Osteopathy
Welcome to Body Care Osteopathy, a dedicated health and wellness clinic located in the tranquil setting of Marden, Kent. Founded on the holistic principles established by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still in 1874, our practice focuses on the harmonious function of your body’s musculoskeletal system—bones, muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues. We believe that true recovery goes beyond simple symptom relief; it requires understanding how your body moves, adapts, and compensates to restore long-term balance and well-being.
Led by Hannah Stout, a registered osteopath with a Master’s degree from the European School of Osteopathy and Level 4 Sports Massage qualification, Body Care Osteopathy offers a unique blend of traditional manual therapy and modern movement analysis. Hannah’s approach is deeply influenced by her background in equine sports and martial arts, allowing her to provide exceptional care for both humans and animals. Her philosophy centers on the idea that patients are rarely "broken," but rather their bodies have adapted poorly to stress or injury. By combining gentle spinal manipulations, stretching techniques, and movement guidance, we help you correct imbalances and build the strength and control necessary to prevent recurrence.
Our services are tailored to a wide spectrum of needs, from everyday aches and postural strains to specific sports injuries and chronic back pain. Whether you are an elite athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone suffering from office-related stiffness, we provide a safe, confidential, and evidence-based treatment plan. We utilize gentle hands-on techniques to release tension, improve joint mobility, and promote natural healing. Additionally, we offer practical advice on ergonomics, exercise, and lifestyle changes to ensure you get back to doing what you love, pain-free.
Located at Bramley, Cornwells Farm, Sheephurst Lane, Marden, our clinic offers easy parking and a serene environment conducive to healing. We treat a variety of conditions including non-specific low back pain, neck tension, migraines, joint pain, and pregnancy-related discomfort. Our commitment to patient-centered care means that every treatment plan is jointly developed based on your individual medical history, age, and fitness levels. With initial consultations starting at £70 and continued treatments at £60, we make high-quality osteopathic care accessible and affordable. Experience the difference of holistic osteopathy and start your journey toward better movement and lasting health today.

Our comment from PhysioFinder.net about Body Care Osteopathy:
A holistic approach to pain and mobility
Body Care Osteopathy operates on the philosophy that pain often stems from poor bodily adaptation rather than structural "breakage." The clinic focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of discomfort in areas such as the back, shoulders, and knees. Patients frequently highlight that practitioners like Ben and Hannah do not merely manage symptoms but work to understand the unique mechanics of each individual. This thorough investigative approach is often credited with delivering significant relief where previous treatments have fallen short, with many noting they felt better immediately after their first visit.
Expertise in diverse therapeutic techniques
The clinic offers a comprehensive toolkit of osteopathic and physiotherapeutic methods tailored to specific patient needs. The treatment repertoire includes manual therapy, chiropractic manipulation, acupuncture, cupping, deep tissue massage, and electrotherapy. A standout feature for many patients is the integration of therapeutic exercise and education. Practitioners emphasize empowering patients by teaching them about body mechanics, providing customized home exercise programs, and showing techniques like self-taping. This focus on self-care and prevention helps patients maintain their progress long after the session ends.
- Osteopathic manipulation and joint mobilization
- Acupuncture and cupping therapy
- Deep tissue massage and soft tissue release
- Customized strengthening and stretching routines
- Postural correction and ergonomic advice
Trusted by patients and sports enthusiasts
The center has earned a strong reputation for treating a wide spectrum of clients, from athletes dealing with sports injuries to individuals managing chronic conditions or restricted mobility. Reviews frequently mention successful outcomes for complex issues, including sciatica, prolapsed discs, and persistent knee or shoulder pain. The team’s ability to resolve long-standing issues that other professionals could not fix is a common theme. Patients appreciate the personalized nature of the care, which often leads to rapid improvements in mobility and a return to daily activities or sports without pain.
A compassionate and engaging professional team
Patients consistently praise the friendly, caring, and highly professional demeanor of the osteopaths. Described as "gurus" and "masters of their craft," the team is noted for being excellent listeners who take the time to explain the body’s functions clearly. This transparent communication helps patients feel at ease and involved in their recovery process. The flexibility of the practice, including the ability to accommodate urgent appointments and offer mobile services for those with limited mobility, further enhances the patient experience, making Body Care Osteopathy a highly recommended choice for holistic health.

Fantastic experience: Hannah is a fantastic osteopath, very friendly and listens to what you tell her. Hannah asks lots of questions and explains how the body works which is extremely useful. I highly recommend Hannah and come away from her sessions feeling energised
Fantastic experience: Hannah has been helping me with back pain which has been amazing. From the very first visit I started to feel better. She is very professional, great at what she does and so easy to talk to - highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Great osteopath, works in such a unique way to work our causes and find solutions rather than just manage symptoms. Massive improvements just in 2 sessions, would definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: I have been using Ben's practise for a few years now, as someone with restricted mobility and scalloping of my spine, he has kept me moving, working great guy. Please visit if you have issues you won't be disappointed
Fantastic experience: I have been really struggling with lower back pain and Ben has been a godsend. Not only is he working his magic on my back but also teaching me about strength exercises to stop it happening again. I would highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Great experience. Ben is an expert in his field, detail orientated and took me through the issues he was seeing whilst trying to fix them. Would highly recommend.
Thankyou so much.
Really nice to meet you and looking forwards to the positive progress.
Fantastic experience: Great company. Ben works crazy hours so always has availability when I need and is happy to fit time in if you call/message. Great stuff
Fantastic experience: Ben is brilliant. My on going back pain is now under control after more than a year of pain and failed treatment elsewhere. He looks at how your whole body works and every session is different as he works his magic. He is knowledgeable, understanding and compassionate. I would 100% recommend him
Fantastic experience: What a find - Ben was recommended to me by someone whose opinion I really trust and it has been proven to be well founded. Ben's holistic approach to care is first rate, clearly he is an outstanding Osteopath and master of his craft, and when combined with Acupuncture and insights from other disciplines, makes a very effective combination. I really appreciate and enjoy our more 'technical' discussions around the treatment provided.
Fantastic experience: Ben is amazing at taking one look at you and knowing where your issues are. I always feel better having seen him and often go away with various ideas about how to manage things before I visit again. He is so knowledgeable and has many strings to his bow. Also a genuinely nice guy who you can chat along with during the treatment
Fantastic experience: I initially saw a Facebook post offering a discounted consultation app and after suffering with my back and neck for a good few years I thought I’d give Body care Osteopathy a try and thank goodness I did! Ben quickly worked out what was going on and set to work.. after only two sessions I can already feel a difference and will be continuing to use him for the foreseeable! Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Very thorough and professional treatment. Good conversation too.
Fantastic experience: Great service, very knowledgable and very sympathetic to a problem. Helps to get one back to feeling good and pain free. Would certainly recommend Ben to help with a problem.
Fantastic experience: I was very pleased with the outcome of my treatment with Ben when I sprained my ankle and it got no better in 6 weeks and so I visited Ben who gave me very good advice, exercises to do and he taped my ankle to make it stable again and at last I could drive. Thoroughly recommend Body Care Osteopathy.
Fantastic experience: I am very much enjoying my time with Ben. He is no doubt a great osteopath but it’s the holistic approach and influences from other areas of body health and wellness that I like. The time goes way too quickly as he is so engaging and you feel that he really is invested in an overall improvement. My experience in this field is limited but I would highly recommend Ben.
Fantastic experience: Outstanding treatments and knowledge. Really made me feel at ease and gave me so much support of what to do to help rebuild my strength.
Fantastic experience: I had sciatica and have never been in so much pain and discomfort. After a friend recommended Ben, I booked as soon as I could to help relive the pain. Best money I had spent. He took his time, informative and after my appointment I managed to walk comfortably out the door with a smile feeling normal again. My partner also has seen Ben and highly rates Bens expertise. I would 100% see him again if needed and wouldn’t want to go anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly, professional and knowledgeable osteopath. Ben initially resolved an issue I had with my wrist, on the spot in a climbing centre, I was previously told by an orthopaedic surgeon that I would not be able to climb pain free anymore, 5 mins with Ben and 5 years on and still no issues. I have since been to see Ben for some pain in my hands and left feeling better.
Fantastic experience: I was suffering with saviour pain in my shoulder for month, been going through hospital, strongest painkillers, acupuncture etc nothing helped until my friend recommended Ben, who I am massively thankful
Fantastic experience: I had an on going knee injury so I went to see Ben. His knowledge and treatment was amazing ! He looked at my body as a whole and targeted his treatment to my knee with manipulation, massage, acupuncture and cupping........he also taught me how to tape my knee for competitions. My knees are completely healed and I can now run. I would definitely recommend Ben
Fantastic experience: Have just completed my third appointment with Ben and after each appointment have immediately felt both physically and mentally refreshed. Wish I had seen him sooner. Has taken time to understand physical issues causing me concern and has explained clearly what he is trying to achieve during each stage of my treatment. Would have no hesitation in recommending.
Fantastic experience: Seen Ben for back and neck problems. He is really good Osteopath and very informative. Would definitely recommend him to anyone with any joint issues.
Fantastic experience: Ben is excellent. He listened, explained and ultimately improved my pain and stiffness. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Ben is an amazing, skilled and knowledgeable osteo. He has always been flexible to fit me in and given a comprehensive and holistic treatment. highly recommend him
Fantastic experience: Ben is great. He has deep expertise in all aspects of body mechanics and deploys a range of techniques including physiotherapy, chiropractic manipulation, acupuncture and deep tissue massage. He’s also a deep thinker, bringing a mindfulness to the therapy in a way I’ve not experienced before - it also makes for good conversation throughout. He’s fixed my joint pain and trapped nerves quickly and painlessly, and as such I’ve recommended Ben to several friends - and do so again here.
Fantastic experience: Very informative and helpful caring best person to go to will help you as much as possible keeps you updated with appointments. Big thumbs up to ben well

Fantastic experience: Ben is honestly the best person I’ve ever seen, literally like a guru! Knowledge is extremely good and his passion for Osteopathy is second to none. Treatment has always worked first time, which really surprised me to be honest. Having been told I had a prolapsed disc and unable to move very well, thought I would step into the unknown. I was truly taken back but Ben’s work, walked out a new man! Acupuncture, manipulation, deep massage absolutely fantastic. Generally look no further, Body Care Osteopathy will cater for your needs. Looking forward to more treatment and my mum is coming as well for some treatment. Fantastic stuff! 10/10
Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend Ben enough! He’s extremely knowledgeable and identified the cause of my on going back pain very quickly. He explained all of this so clearly and got to action straight away. I got a home program of stretches and exercises, which I’ve never got from a previous clinic. This really worked and I can happily now say I’m pain free! I’m so pleased to say I won’t be hanging my rugby boots up yet! Thank you Ben!
Fantastic experience: Great guy, full of know-how! Was walking around pain free after my first visit. Thank you Ben
Fantastic experience: I visited Ben as I had neck pain since I started CrossFit. He was quickly able to identify the root cause, and his treatment made a big impact right from the beginning. He also suggested some exercise and stretches to improve my posture, which were super helpful. Can't recommend him enough!
Fantastic experience: As a Sports Massage therapist, I'm very picky and struggle to find the right person to help me out with my own niggles but I have to say Ben is excellent. He's thoughtful, kind and incredibly talented at understanding what the body needs in order to heal. Each session is completely tailored to what's going on for me at that point in time. Please do book in with him!
Fantastic experience: Ben has been treating my son for a recent sports injury. He has helped enormously with his recovery and I am so glad that we visited him. He is very knowledgeable and professional, and he made my son feel at ease, despite the discomfort that he was in when walked into the treatment room. The difference in my sons’ movement pattern from when he walked through the door, to when he left was phenomenal! We will definitely be back. Highly recommended!!
Fantastic experience: I've had 4 members of the family in to see Ben and we've all come out in a lot less pain, long term as well as short term. He sorted the leg pain my 4 year old had at night and she sleeps so much better now. I would definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: Ben really knows about bodies and how they work. Great listener and fantastic treatment. Definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Thank you Ben, I got treated for knee injury and he was spot on from first visit and knew exactly what was right thing for me. I am pain free and back to gym and all thanks to Ben's effort.
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience. Would highly recommend. Ben was and empathetic and gentle in treating my back and very knowledgeable in the advice he gave. By the end of the session I was in considerably less pain and able to walk unaided. Gave me advice on exercises too. Highly recommended !
Fantastic experience: Ben has a good approach to osteopathy, his manipulation of my back and examination of my gait made a huge difference to the sciatica brought on by working from home during lockdown, sitting at a wholly unsuitable dining chair. I only needed a couple of appointments and my mild sciatica was gone.
Fantastic experience: Ben really took the time to assess my pain and the issues I was having to gain an understanding of how to treat me. He also advised me of how to maintain the work with exercises and posture. I have seen a huge improvement and no longer have the pain I’d been struggling with for some time. I’ve seen many osteopaths but would rate Ben at the top of my experiences. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: I have used Ben recently to help with a back condition and found him effective and reassuring. I will definitely use again if needed and would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Ben really took time to consult to understand my issues. He was considerate and purposeful with his treatments. He suggested some simple things I could do at home to help. I can recommend Ben highly, he resolved a complicated injuries that I had. I have not had to go back! Thank yo Ben .
Fantastic experience: A very professional and skilled osteopath, highly recommended. The results of Ben's treatment on my back pain were exceptional, and I have already booked to see him again for preventative treatment. Thanks very much!
Fantastic experience: I am so delighted to have discovered Ben, he has fixed my calf and got me running again! Ben is so knowledgeable, and obviously has a true passion for what he does. He is very keen to pass on as much knowledge as possible - as well as physical treatment - in his sessions, so you go away with new tools to help you maintain balance and function for the long term. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Being Ex Forces and coming away with really bad acute neak pain due to jumping out of planes with knee issues etc.. Ben only took 2 sessions to completely cure my issues where dozens apon dozens of other acupuncturists and Osteopaths couldn't solve I simply can't RECOMMEND Ben enough Wow Thanks alot for coming out to me mobile at 9pm on a Sunday, Ben is truly one for helping as a naturally a healer All my best Gerard
Dear Lawson Tree Services
Remember the time when I was called out to treat one of your team members on site. He was shaking your rope out of excitement that he could move his shoulder properly .

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic osteopath. I can’t recommend Ben more. He has helped me for over 5 years. When I first started going to Ben I couldn’t sleep due to horrendous back pain. He has resolved this and continues to help me improve my mobility.
Thankyou so much Ella it’s been a pleasure working with you.
Fantastic experience: Truly the positive experience I’ve had with a healthcare professional. Got to the source of a long standing issue that a catalogue of other physios, osteos and chiropractors has been unable to make an impact on!
Felix, you are a true gent.
