Jim Brownrigg
30/07/2010
We are sorry to announce that Jim Brownrigg has left ‘The Osteopath’. Jim has had a burning desire to become a Doctor and has therefore had to leave Jersey to turn this aspiration into reality. He has decided to return to university and study Medicine. He and Sara are about to have their second child in August and will be living on the South Coast in a house boat along with their 18 month old daughter Anni! From the above statement it is obvious that this decision has not been taken lightly and Jim is very focused in his objective. He has been a tremendous asset to our practice and we would like to thank him for all his hard work and dedication to the practice but most importantly to our patients. He has been a pleasure to work alongside and has always been professional, thorough and effective in his patient management and treatment. For those who have benefited from his expertise I am sure you will join me in wishing Jim and his family a safe and happy return to the UK and all the best in his future studies.

NICE Guidelines
May 2009
In May 2009 The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) provided guidelines for the ‘Early management of persistent low back pain’. In the guidelines they advocate the use of physical activity and exercise that should be ‘tailored to the person’. They recommend Manual therapy such as Osteopathy including spinal manipulation for up to nine sessions over a twelve week period. They also suggest that one should ‘consider offering a course of acupuncture needling for 10 sessions over 12 weeks’.
Here at ‘The Osteopath’ all the practitioners provide the relevant knowledge and expertise.
