Open Monday to Saturday
A small, community-focused clinic on Eling Lane, between Southampton and the New Forest. We treat back and joint pain, and we specialise in women's health, pregnancy and post-natal care, babies and children.
12 Eling Lane, Totton SO40 9GA
Two osteopaths, GOsC registered
Late sessions Mondays to 20.00
What we treat
Osteopaths use touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage to increase the mobility of joints, relieve muscle tension and support the body's own healing. Every appointment starts with a full case history and assessment, so treatment is matched to what we find.
Back and joint pain, neck and shoulder discomfort, headaches. We work to find the root cause rather than treat the site of the pain alone, and give advice on posture and exercise to help keep symptoms from returning.
Initial appointment from £65
A dedicated appointment for pelvic pain, continence concerns, prolapse symptoms, constipation and bowel function, discussed in a supportive and professional environment. Internal assessment is offered, never assumed.
Initial appointment £80
A comprehensive postnatal check, however long ago you gave birth. Bowel and bladder screening, scar tissue assessment, posture, pelvic floor, tummy gap, plus a recovery programme built around what the assessment finds.
Assessment and rehab programme £95
Safe, gentle techniques at any stage before and after birth, using a specialist pregnancy pillow in clinic. For pelvic and back pain, neck and shoulder discomfort, and preparation for birth, vaginal or caesarean.
Initial appointment from £65
Babies' skeletons are softer and more complex than an adult's, so we use gentler techniques such as cranial osteopathy. Every child is assessed at the first consultation to see what might help.
Initial paediatric appointment from £65
One-to-one guidance from the start to the finish of your feeding journey, in clinic or at home. Gayle is a FEDANT registered breastfeeding counsellor and both osteopaths have trained in tongue tie assessment.
Initial consultation £65
Women's health
Align was founded by Gayle Jordan to provide inclusive, supportive care for women and their families. Women's health osteopathy addresses the changes brought about by pregnancy and the post-natal period, and the gynaecological issues that follow through to menopause and beyond.
Many women are very good at carrying on despite symptoms that affect their quality of life. A pelvic health appointment is a dedicated space to talk about them. Every appointment is tailored to your symptoms, your goals and your stage of life.
Our team
Between them, Gayle and Sarah cover general osteopathy, women's and pelvic health, paediatrics, cranial and visceral technique, and infant feeding. Both hold a Masters in Osteopathy and are fully registered with the General Osteopathic Council.
Founder and clinical director
Gayle has been a complementary and manual therapist for nearly 30 years and gained her Masters from the London School of Osteopathy. Her passion is women's health: she is a graduate of the Molinari Institute of Health with a postgraduate diploma in Women's Health Osteopathy, a member of the British Menopause Society, and a recommended practitioner of the Pelvic Partnership.
She has taught manual and complementary therapists for over 25 years, and is an NCT trained breastfeeding peer supporter working with parents at Southampton Baby Cafe and the Princess Anne Hospital.
In clinic Monday to Friday, with late sessions on Mondays. Home visits available for infant feeding support.
Osteopath
Sarah treats patients of all ages and especially enjoys helping new families and their babies, using her paediatric training to release tension and improve function in the clinic's smallest patients. She has trained further in neurological development and infant feeding, with a specific interest in tongue tie.
With older patients she combines cranial, visceral and structural techniques. Sarah gained her Masters at the College Osteopathique de Bordeaux and worked with the international department of the European School of Osteopathy in Maidstone, examining undergraduates and interpreting for French and Belgian students. She speaks French.
In clinic Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, plus Saturday mornings.
“I had an internal pelvic assessment, followed by treatment on some trigger points that Gayle found. The treatment was not painful and Gayle made me feel completely relaxed the whole time. I was also given guidance on pelvic floor exercises. The difference after one treatment was extremely noticeable.”
