Nelson Osteopathic Clinic is an osteopathic clinic at 218 Trafalgar Street in Nelson. It treats back pain, neck pain, headaches, sports and work injuries, and aches and strains, for people of all ages from infants to grandparents. The website says most patients need one to four treatments. The clinic is ACC registered, so part of the appointment cost can be covered for injuries from an accident at work, at home or elsewhere.
The osteopath, Richard Carruthers, has 41 years of practice and was awarded the Queen's Service Medal in 2016 for services to osteopathy. Customers quoted on the website praise the professionalism, the speed of treatment for shoulder problems and sciatica, and the friendly reception. Richard Carruthers is also the founder of the Nelson Youth Theatre Company. Phone the clinic during office hours to book.
