Welcome to Ian Thornley Osteopathy
Helping you move well, feel better, and live more fully – one person at a time.
At my practice in Otford, I take the time to really get to know you — not just your symptoms. You're not just another appointment in the diary. Whether you're dealing with aches, injury, or something that just doesn’t feel quite right, we’ll work together to understand what’s going on and find a path forward that suits your life, body, and goals.
As an experienced osteopath, I use hands-on treatment and a whole-body approach to help ease pain, improve mobility, and support long-term wellbeing. From everyday niggles to complex, long-standing issues, my focus is always on you as a whole person, not just the area that hurts.
Let's get you moving in the right direction — gently, naturally, and with care.
You don’t have to just “put up with it.”
Whether the discomfort has crept in over time or suddenly disrupted your routine, there’s often more that can be done than you’ve been told.
​
I take a hands-on, whole-body approach to help ease pain, improve how your body functions, and support your long-term wellbeing.
It starts with understanding what’s really going on — and giving your body the space and support it needs to recover, move better, and feel more like yourself again.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to manage it all by yourself. If you’re near Otford or Shoreham and ready for a fresh, hands-on approach, I’m here to help.
Feeling ready to take the next step?
If you’re ready to get going with some hands-on help and a plan that’s made just for you, I’d love to help. We’ll work together to get to the bottom of what’s going on and get you back to doing what you enjoy.
Just hit the button below to book in.
Not quite ready to book an appointment? That’s totally fine.
If you’ve got questions or just want to chat things through first just give me a call or send me an email or message. If you would prefer to schedule a time to chat things through you’re very welcome to book a free phone call or video call - the choice is yours!. There’s no pressure and no obligation — just a chance to see if it feels like the right fit for you.
If you’re like most of the people I work with, you’re probably looking for a more natural way to feel better — without relying on painkillers or just pushing through.
My aim is to help you move from feeling limited, frustrated, or unsure… to feeling confident again in your body and your daily life — whatever that looks like for you.
Over the years, I’ve helped accountants get back to football, mums return to the tennis court, plumbers enjoy the garden again, and grandparents pick up their grandkids with ease.
If you're in Otford, Shoreham, Sevenoaks or nearby, and you’re looking for an osteopath who’ll take the time to understand your goals and work with you to reach them — feel free to get in touch. I’d love to help.
