Steven Goddard
Registered Osteopath
Steven Goddard graduated from The British College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2004 and spent his first post-graduate year in Cardiff before moving to the Coach House Clinic in April 2006.
"Anyone who has experienced osteopathy will know that each osteopath has an individual approach to treatment, honed and developed through practise and experience.
During my time in practice I have found it helpful to consider the human body as a complex machine, though one we tend to neglect until it shows signs of malfunction. Generally speaking, the more care we take of this machine, the better it performs and the longer it will function smoothly.
Pain is the symptom of dysfunction that generally drives people to seek advice form an osteopath. My approach is to treat the symptoms using a variety of techniques, but also to analyse the cause of the problem and work with the patient towards preventing its occurence."
Steven uses a variety of techniques including structural, cranial and soft tissue manipulation in a programme designed for the individual patient. He also encourages patient participation in recovery from injury by giving simple stretches and exercises to be performed at home.
