Gareth Degg

Osteopath

Bio

After starting his working life in London as a Personal Trainer Gareth later achieved his Masters in Osteopathy from the British School of Osteopathy and then further graduated from the world-renowned Applied Functional Science (AFS) mentorship program at the Gray Institute in Michigan, USA.

Gareth has spent significant time in his career thus far working in and around high-level sport, including spending 7 years as a “Trackside Therapist” within Athletics where he was present at training sessions, on training camps and at competitions to help maximise athletic performance as best possible. During this time, he developed a key understanding around running and sports injuries and ways to both manage and resolve them.

When in general practice Gareth has experience of treating patients form a range of ages and complaints, form the young to the not-so young and from the sporty to the office worker and all in-between. He feels his strengths lie in his ability to look at a problem form a global perspective to seek the root cause and not rushing to make a hasty diagnosis. Gareth’s specialist interest is in the hip + pelvis, hamstrings & lower leg dysfunction.
