“I would like to thank you for the treatment that you have provided for my many and varied injuries and ailments but especially for my slipped disc. I expected my condition to improve with osteopathy but I didn't expect the speed of the improvement that I had.”

“As a professional violinist, my shoulder strain from over-use felt as if the end of my working life was fast approaching. Maria Costello approached the problem from many directions using osteopathy, massage, cranial treatment and a strict exercise regime. On top of this she was always calm and encouraging. I had complete confidence in her and now feel more able to cope with the physical stresses of my job.”
Ann Morfee, First Violinist in the Evita Band
“I visited Maria after my birth for several Cranial Osteopathic sessions. I was constantly screaming with Reflux/Colic problems, after my first treatment I felt totally relaxed and fell asleep for several hours afterwards. Both myself and my mummy have seen a vast improvement. Also Maria could tell that I had an extended neck due to my birth and she has also corrected this problem, thanks to Maria I am now a very happy baby and only cry for my dinner.”

“After suffering back pain for many years and following a back operation I thought life would be pretty miserable. I tried various techniques but none of these seemed to work for me. I thought that’s it I’m going to leave it alone and suffer in silence. Then I came across Maria who asked me what I wanted to achieve and I answered less pain, able to exercise at the gym and feel confident enough to start a family. After just a couple of months of seeing Maria, I was in less pain, able to go to the gym and will very soon start trying for a family. I highly recommend Maria she is professional, caring and very good at what she does.”

“I suffer neck and upper/lower back problems caused by an accident many years ago. That, alas means that I always need assistance with muscle pains and blockages.
I moved here a year ago and made a first visit to Maria as my back was seizing up and for her to assist with the problem. Over the next few months, all my symptoms and the pain has been greatly reduced, now I visit Maria for a check up every 3 months and both she and myself have both noticed a huge improvement with my symptoms, and obviously visiting her for a check up keeps me out of pain.
It is hard to describe Maria’s treatment, in particular cranial osteopathy which I find both uplifting and relaxing. Through gentle (but highly effective) manipulation, exercises and the cranial osteopathy, Maria has made a huge difference to my physical and emotional well-being. She has a caring approach and is wonderful to deal with and has very reasonable rates. I would highly recommend Maria to anyone searching for an osteopath.
Thanks Maria keep up the good work.”
