What our patients say ...

As an ICU nurse in the peak of the December Covid surge, I was on the verge of not continuing at work due to excruciating neck and arm pain. I must admit I had phoned a different osteopath but as she was on leave, she recommended Joss. I was a little apprehensive as he was a school peer of my sons, and I felt a little awkward. However, I knew I had to continue to go to work and desperation made me make the call. It was the right decision. Joss put me at ease immediately, was extremely professional, and his treatment made my pain bearable within a couple of weeks. I am now completely better with exercises to maintain my condition. Thank you Joss, another happy customer!

I was experiencing repetitive strain whilst working from home during the lockdown. I'd had this strain for years and never sought help but it was exasperated when at home full time. I started seeing Elsa every one to two weeks initially, gradually increasing the time between visits. She took time to explain what she would do and why at each stage, checking I was comfortable and gave me exercises to do at home to help reduce the strain. I had a really good experience and haven't needed to go back for 6 weeks (to date!) Definitely recommend!

Joss provided a professional and friendly service . He has succeeded in helping to heal my slipped disc and making my back a lot more comfortable . Highly recommended.

A great find! I was in a lot of pain and even breathing was proving difficult. Bank holiday weekend, I didn’t think I’d be able to find anyone to help me but Joss was there to save the day. As a physical therapist myself, it’s vital that when I need help, I get help quickly so I can keep on working. I found Joss to be warm, friendly and knowledgeable . The clinic is lovely too, bright and airy and non “stuffy”. They’re on the ball with Covid safety too. I left being able to breathe easier already and in less pain than I was. We have a little work to do, but I am absolutely confident that Joss will sort this problem for me... the it will be on to my creaky knees! Thanks so much.

I slipped a disc in my lower back several years ago and twinged it again during lockdown. Joss really helped free up movement in our session. He also explained to me fully how I can manage it going forwards using exercises and also advised me that I can do more than I think I can. I've reframed my situation from "living with an injury", to "recovering from an injury", and I already feel stronger and more confident. Will definitely return (though hopefully not too soon!).

I have used Joss to help diagnose a problem that my 11 year old son has been having with his hip. Joss is very patient and listened to what the issue was and over a number of sessions helped us resolve things. Also advising on proactive and preventative measures to take to stay fit and injury free. Happy to 100% recommend Joss

I have a stiff back due to long hours of sitting at work and doing deadlifts recently has triggered my lower back pain. Jen was very thorough in understanding / assessing my condition, she also gave me some exercises to do at home in order to loosen my back muscles.

About Pura Vida Clinic

‘Pura Vida‘ is a phrase from Costa Rica. Simply translated, it means “simple life” or “pure life”, but in Costa Rica, it is more than just a saying – it’s an emotion, it’s an attitude, it’s happiness, and it’s a way of life.

“How are you doing?”

“Pura Vida!”

Pain & injuries can disrupt our daily lives and schedules. Apart from being extremely inconvenient, it holds us back from participating in the things that bring us joy or interrupt our focus. We aim to alleviate or help you better manage your pain so that you can get back to the Pura Vida.

Our clinic provides osteopathic care to our local community – Reigate, Redhill, Merstham, Dorking, Banstead, Tadworth, Nutfield, Caterham & surrounding areas.
