Alison - Osteopath, Holistic Wellness & Trauma Informed Practitoner

At The Well Adjusted Clinic, Alison has evolved far beyond traditional osteopathy. While she loves and is passionate about osteopathic medicine, she most enjoys working with complex patients using some osteo but equally drawing on talk therapies when needed. Her osteopathic training gives her the medical foundation to properly diagnose—something that sets her apart from alternative therapists—but her passion lies in transforming lives through Havening, OldPain2Go, sound healing, and other mind-body approaches. Her own trauma history makes her particularly effective with complex patients, rather than working in the acute injury space where others can do excellent work.

Having transformed her own life from a stressful London finance career, Alison understands the deep connection between stress, trauma, and chronic pain. This led her to discover healing methods that address root causes, not just symptoms.

Each appointment involves gentle touch and is shaped by what you need most. Sometimes it's hands-on osteopathic work, sometimes it's Havening—which combines touch with talk therapy to calm your nervous system. OldPain2Go also uses this talk-and-touch combination to rewire pain patterns. Alison offers 60-minute appointments because real healing takes time, with longer sessions available for initial consultations or more complex issues when using Havening and OldPain2Go.

Healing here is collaboration. Alison works with you to uncover mind-body connections behind your pain or trauma. Both Havening and OldPain2Go can work content-free—you don't need to share details if you're not ready. However, Alison believes limited, safe sharing often accelerates healing. The choice is yours, and you're supported either way.

Having experienced trauma herself, Alison brings deep empathy to her work. She offers a safe, non-judgmental space where you can share what feels right for you. You won't walk this journey alone.

This is where medical expertise meets transformational healing. Alison diagnoses what's happening in your body, then uses techniques like Havening and OldPain2Go to address the multiple factors maintaining pain and trauma. Your body can be re-aligned while your mind releases old patterns that keep pain alive long after the original cause has passed. This addresses what conventional medicine can sometimes miss—helping you break free from chronic pain and trauma patterns that may have persisted for years.

If you're looking for someone who understands that sometimes it's hard just getting through the day, and who has both medical knowledge and healing tools to help you truly transform—Alison may be exactly who you've been searching for.
