Welcome to Bure Valley Osteopaths
.........................................................
Established in 2015 by Registered Osteopath Gemma Sethna, Bure Valley Osteopaths in an independent clinic in the heart of Aylsham, Norfolk.
Osteopathy is at the centre of what we do, with a focus on understanding each patient's symptoms, exploring possible contributing factors and providing treatment and advice tailored to their individual needs.
Alongside Osteopathy, our independent practitioners offer Sports Massage and a range of complementary therapies, providing additional options for those seeking treatment or relaxation.
Our aim is simple: to offer professional, personalised care in a friendly and welcoming environment.
Gemma Sethna | Osteopath and Clinic Owner
..............................................
Before becoming an osteopath, Gemma enjoyed a successful career as a professional dancer, performing around the world with Cunard and Royal Caribbean cruise lines.
Having experienced her fair share of dance-related injuries, she developed a fascination with how the body works, why pain develops and the role osteopathy can play in managing musculoskeletal problems.
After returning to the UK, Gemma embarked on a five-year Master's degree at the London School of Osteopathy, graduating with Distinction.
She established Bure Valley Osteopaths in 2015 and has since built her practice around a thorough, individual approach to patient care.
Rather than focusing solely on where something hurts, Gemma takes time to understand each patient's symptoms, assess how their body is functioning and explore the possible factors contributing to their discomfort.
Alongside Osteopathy, she is also qualified in Sports Massage and Western medical acupuncture.
Outside the clinic, Gemma enjoys walking her Cavapoo, Buddy, and spending time with her teenage daughter.
Registered with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC), registration number 9300.
