Charley Windley

Masters in Osteopathy (M.ost) Registered Osteopath

When Charley was asked why she wanted to become an osteopath she replied:

 ‘Everyone is unique with unique individual needs. In addition, I love working and being around people and I always want the best for them. I believe I am a personable person, and this is a vital component in being a good osteopath as this builds a trusting relationship which enables the patient to get back to doing what they love’.
