Celine Delgrange

Osteopath

I graduated with an Integrative Masters degree from the European school of Osteopathy in 2014. I have always been keen in helping others and having received Osteopathic treatments as a child and following sports injuries, Osteopathy was for me the best filing profession. Since I graduated, I practiced  as Osteopath in Kent for three years in three different Osteopathic clinics. I have now relocated to Southend-On-Sea and have been building my Osteopathic clinic since March 2017.

​As a fully qualified and registered Osteopath, I use osteopathic techniques such as manipulations, articulations, soft tissue massage and stretching, as well as cranial osteopathic treatments, Kinesiology taping and Dry needling in order to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal and health problems with the aim of helping recovery and preventing further occurrences. I provide treatment and care for people of all ages from newborns to the elderly, as well as pregnant women, sports people, athletes, office and manual workers.

I am also a sport and exercise nutritional advisor and offer sport nutrition consultations (See "Sport nutrition" in the menu section)

I can offer consultations in both French and English.

​To satisfy the code of ethics and standards,  I am fully registered with the General Osteopathic Council (GOSC) and fully insured with the institute of Osteopathy. By law, I am also committed to continuing professional development.
