I cannot recommend osteopath Emma Bundle from City Osteopathy and Physiotherapy enough for anyone seeking relief from jaw problems or any other musculoskeletal issues. Her expertise, professionalism, and compassionate care were exemplary. She was able to help my daughter with TMJ disorder. If you're looking for an osteopath who will go above and beyond to help you, this is the practitioner to trust.

Emma is such an amazing, kind, and helpful osteopath. I highly recommend. Not only was she extremely helpful with my jaw clicking, but she also exceeded my expectation of how much help she could provide. Only a few appointments my jaw felt notably better and she still helped me find things that may be triggering the tension in my jaw. She went above and beyond to help find me doctors at my new location and I believe emma is the kind of doctor that truly cares about her patients and tries to find a solution to their problems.

Glad that both my wife and I get to be adjusted by Emma, she is meticulous and skillful in finding our sore point and able to help us to resolve some of these physical issues. Her warm personality made us so comfortable in the session. Overall we enjoyed our experience with her and her adjustment and exercise suggestion did help us resolved those sores and aches that had been troubling us. If you are looking for a good therapist, I would highly recommend Emma.

I also see Emma Bundle for osteopathy treatment because of various muscle aches and pains over the course of my pregnancy. She has helped me to manage my SI joint inflammation with massages and useful tips to adjust my routines and minimise stress on my pelvic area. I also have a lot of shoulder and back tension from working at a desk job, that she gently works on - unlike TCM massages which I generally find too forceful.
