Hugo is a qualified Osteopath, registered with GOsC and is a member of the Institute of Osteopathy. He is a musculoskeletal specialist who combines his osteopathic training with medical acupuncture, sports massage, trigger point therapy and Functional Exercise therapy through the Gray Institute of Applied Functional Science.
This combination of innovative functional exercise and highly effective Osteopathic treatment helps patients significantly reduce their pain, increase their mobility and importantly gives them the strategies to reduce the risk of it happening again or to manage the problem if it reoccurs.
He graduated with a 2:1 from the London School of Osteopathy and has presented his research into therapeutic exercise adherence at the Conference of Chiropractic, Osteopaths and Physiotherapist at the British School of Osteopathy.
He has been a keen sportsman all his life and has a special interest in treating sports related injuries. He understands how debilitating and frustrating back and musculoskeletal pain can be. After 30 years of playing rugby and 19 years of triathlon competitions he knows the stresses and resulting injuries that contact and endurance sport can put on the body. He is a member of OSCA Osteopathic Sports Care Association that provided Osteopathic treatment to athletes at the London 2012 Olympics.
When not training for his next triathlon he gives talks to businesses on work related posture and how staff can help themselves reduce pain with simple exercises at their desks or the water cooler.
Hugo lives in central Kingston with his wife and two young children. They take up any of his spare time.
