At Osteopathy Nelson, we are a collective of experienced, caring health practitioners dedicated to helping people move better, feel stronger, and live with less pain.
Based in the heart of Nelson, our clinic has supported the local community for over 20 years. We are proud of our strong referral relationships with GPs, midwives, allied health professionals, and specialists, and of the trust placed in us by generations of patients — from newborns to older adults, office workers to athletes.
A patient-centred, holistic approach
We believe that no two bodies — and no two healing journeys — are the same. Our approach is individualised, thoughtful, and rooted in a deep understanding of how the body functions as a whole.
Osteopathy recognises that structure and function are closely linked. Pain or restriction in one area may reflect patterns elsewhere in the body, influenced by lifestyle, injury history, stress, and overall health. Our role is to listen carefully, assess thoroughly, and work with your body to support balance, movement, and recovery.
What we offer
Osteopathy Nelson is a multidisciplinary health collective offering:
Osteopathy (including structural, cranial, functional, and visceral approaches)
Cranial osteopathy for all ages, including babies and children
Massage therapy
Acupuncture
Counselling, breathwork, and coaching
Movement and wellness classes, including yoga, Pilates, and Qigong
This collaborative model allows us to support patients from multiple angles, ensuring care is well-rounded, safe, and appropriate to each stage of life.
Our philosophy
We value gentle, effective treatment, clear communication, and realistic expectations. Treatments are tailored to the individual, and outcomes vary depending on many factors, including the nature of the condition, the body’s capacity to heal, and time.
While we cannot guarantee results, we are committed to providing professional, ethical, and evidence-informed care that supports your wellbeing and empowers you to better understand your body.
Our team
Our practitioners bring a wide range of skills, experience, and perspectives, united by a shared commitment to patient care, ongoing learning, and collaboration. We foster a supportive team culture where knowledge is shared and patients benefit from collective expertise.
Supporting the Nelson community
As a locally owned clinic, community matters deeply to us. We are passionate about creating a welcoming, inclusive space where people feel heard, supported, and cared for — whether they are seeking relief from pain, recovering from injury, or simply wanting to move more comfortably through life.
