And I had x rays I had a a full hip operation after was the best thing I did ! No one actually gave me the right advice to say what it was i was struggling with ! So thank you so much I’ve been pain free for 3 yrs now 😊 More...

We can't thank Nina enough for the care and expertise she showed to us and our little boy Rory, who was under her care until he was 6 months old. From the very first session, she made us all feel completely at ease with her gentle, kind and reassuring manner. Nina took the time to listen, explain, and tailor each treatment to his needs. We immediately saw such a positive difference in his comfort and overall wellbeing, it's been wonderful to watch his progress. We feel very lucky to have found Nina and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family. Thank you! Vicky, Nick & Rory Collins More...

I had an excellent experience with Cyril, the osteopath I saw today. He was professional, attentive, and really took the time to understand my concerns. The treatment was thorough and effective, and I left feeling noticeably better. Cyril made me feel comfortable throughout the session and explained everything clearly. Highly recommended for anyone looking for skilled and compassionate care! More...

I’ve never felt so comfortable around a medical professional as I did with Cyril. He strikes the perfect balance between being incredibly friendly and genuinely knowledgeable. I originally came in with one concern, but as a beauty therapist, I have several ongoing issues—and I now feel completely confident placing them in Cyril’s capable hands. I trust that he’ll help get me back to feeling and looking my best. Thank you so much, Cyril! More...

We saw Nina for our baby boy’s reflux. She did a very thorough consultation and treated him for 3 sessions. We saw improvements in his symptoms and also mobility of his head & neck, which she identified was a little limited. She is lovely, professional and did a great job. Recommend. More...

I have had severe back spasms for the past 3 days. When I turned up to my first appointment with Cyril I was completely tilted to one side and in a lot of pain. He was extremely calming, friendly and knowledgeable which instantly put me at ease. His treatment plan and at-home exercises have already started to help me stand up straight and start walking again. I'm looking forward to future sessions and feel optimistic about my recovery. Thank you! More...

Cyril has been an amazing osteopath these past couple of years! He's always really friendly and I love our chats during our sessions. He's helped me a lot with a trapped nerve from playing hockey mixed with a sedentary lifestyle. He has also relieved the tightness in my upper back, shoulders and neck. Would highly recommend!

I’ve been going to Cheadle Osteopathy for the last 10 years, I can’t express how good and caring they are. They remember all my issues and ask questions as to how I’m feeling and if there are any new issues. They offer advice on how to exercise and have given me a plan on how to relieve some of the symptoms. More...

Could not recommend enough to parents! Our 4 week old was struggling with painful trapped gas and vomiting at least once a day. This was affecting her sleep and her general temperament in the day as well as us as the parents! We have had 2 sessions with Hannah a week apart and the difference is phenomenal. We discovered that due to position in pregnancy/labour, our little one was tense through her torso, neck and jaw. This was causing her to be restricted when feeding and therefore taking in more air. Through some simple daily exercises, top tips and Hannahs work in the 2 sessions, we have our happy girl back. No vomit in 10 days, she has been sleeping for 7 hours a night from 5 weeks and no painful gas. We are very glad we went for that first session and have some extra tools to help manage the newborn phase! Thanks Hannah! More...

Very grateful for all Nina’s help with our daughter! We first saw her when she was just a few weeks old, suffering from horrendous reflux and in a lot of discomfort after a tricky, premature birth. She’s now 6 months and thriving! It’s been really helpful, even just beyond the reflux issues, to have regular appointments with Nina to check in with physical development and her milestones. Really pleased we took the plunge and booked in when we did - very happy with how well our daughter is doing now! And pleased we have that resource to turn back to if we ever need more support again in the future. More...

Really grateful for the experience we had at Cheadle Osteopathy. Nina is wonderful, she is very knowledgeable and friendly. I’d highly recommend her. We took our baby to see her and she took time to ask lots of questions and she explained what she was doing and why. I also loved the little exercises to practise at home in between sessions. Our little girl was completely comfortable and was laughing throughout the sessions which really put our mind at ease! Thank you Nina. More...

We’ve had 3 appointments with Nina for our baby and each one has been so informative and helped our baby in lots of ways (reflux, stiffness, preferred side and digestive issues). Nina is very friendly and so calm and professional. She explains things in a very accessible way and gently but effectively treated our baby, despite his grumpy crying. We’ve seen a huge positive difference in our baby and learned a lot. Grazie Nina! More...

What do you love most about your job?
My interest in counselling and psychotherapy was born out of a genuine passion for helping people to find ways of living an emotionally healthy and fulfilled life. I believe we all have the resources to overcome whatever difficulties we may be experiencing. I work hard to offer an environment that encourages personal growth.
What I love most about my job, is being a counsellor who helps people to explore their feelings and emotions that are often related to their experiences. This allows clients to reflect on what is happening to them and consider alternative ways of doing things. As a therapist, I will not give advice, but will help my clients to make their own choices. Also working in a confidential setting, where I can listen attentively to all my clients. Which will then give them time to open up. This also leads to trust and respect. My aim is reduce confusion and increase their ability to cope with challenges and to make positive changes in their life.
What inspired you to start your own business?
What inspired me to start my own business would be the love and passion working with people from all walks life. Also over the year I have had a number of issues that has needed psychological intervention. Which helped me to grow as a person. This in turn lead me into becoming a qualify therapist.
Why should our clients choose you?
My approach towards treating my clients is a combination of counselling, cbt and complimentary therapy which collectively helps in bringing that much needed mental and physical balance, irrespective of what kind of psychological issues you are facing. I aim to revive my clients from the current positions in their lives, and channelizing their negative energy to its way out in a well coordinated manner. It helps bring in the much needed harmony in their lives.
In my experience, I have worked with hundreds of clients from all walks of life, which has provided with a deep insight and practical view of the problems that people are facing in these contemporary times, with regards to their professional and personal life. Whether it is depression due to lack of respect and recognition at work, death of close family member, emotional distress due to separation, addiction, hypersensitivity, obsessive compulsive disorder, hyperactivity, sex addiction, loss of job, phobias or just any other issues that is affecting your mental health negatively
Psychological Therapies, Phobias and Counselling service
