Deeping Osteopaths, Michael Oldfield BSc (Hons) Ost

We understand that when you are in pain and discomfort you need treatment as soon as possible, from qualified, professional and caring practitioners. At Deeping Osteopaths we achieve this by providing excellent treatment and support to our patients. We want to get you back to health as quickly as possible and we do this by treating the underlying cause and not just the symptoms.

Its important to update you of the changes that have been made to the practice due to Covid-19 to ensure that we follow  Public Health, NHS England and the Institute of Osteopathy guidance to keep you and the staff as safe as possible. We have put  measures in place to reduce the risk of infection and spreading of coronavirus, however please note this does not eliminate the risk completely.

Deeping Osteopaths will be reopening for limited face to face appointments with effect from Tuesday 26th May 2020.

Hope you are all keeping safe and well during this difficult and challenging time.

– All patients will have a pre-screening telephone conversation to assess clinical need and screen for any additional risk factors before any appointment.

– You may notice a difference in the practice as many items have been removed in order that all surfaces can be appropriately cleaned.

– There will be staggered appointments to allow for cleaning of all clinic rooms and communal areas, hard surfaces and door handles etc after every patient.

– Staggered appointments will also prevent overlap and maintain social distancing between patients. Opening times will be flexible to accommodate this.

– Patients will be asked to sanitise their hands on entering the practice.

– Patients are asked to arrive promptly for their appointment. The front doors will be locked so please knock for entry and we will be with you asap.
