Harry Greaney MOst
Harry graduated with a first-class Masters degree in Osteopathy from Swansea University. He is committed to staying up to date with the latest developments in the osteopathic profession so he can provide the best quality of care for his patients.
Harry favours a structural approach to his treatments. He listens carefully to his patients and devises a treatment plan to address the root cause of the problem, often prescribing home exercises or rehab plans so his patients can be involved in the recovery process and take steps to prevent future injury. By combining manual techniques, such as soft tissue manipulation, joint mobilisation, and stretching exercises, Harry aims to restore balance, alleviate pain, and improve overall function.
