Juliet Sanders
Chartered Physiotherapist
Read More
Juliet has a wealth of experience and knowledge in the field of physiotherapy. She qualified as a Chartered Physiotherapist in 1984 gaining her Physiotherapy Diploma from Manchester Royal Infirmary School of Physiotherapy.
A further 2 years working in the NHS enhanced her knowledge base and in 1987 an opportunity arose to develop the physiotherapy service for a large ship building company with 14,500 employees. Over a period of nine years the service was transformed from a treatment only service run in a porta-cabin to an Occupational Health service with a full range of services including workplace assessments, return to work programmes, training in manual handling and display screen equipment use, alongside fast track physiotherapy treatment specific to the employees work demands and forming an integral part of the Occupational Health Department at the shipyard.
Juliet undertook further training and in 2005 gained a Post Graduate Certificate in Applied Ergonomics from Nottingham University. In addition her skills in the workplace and the benefit this gave to industry was increasingly recognised resulting in contracts with both corporate companies and local SMEs. Juliet feels that working in industry has allowed her to appreciate the importance of physiotherapy not just for treating injuries but also for ensuring the person is rehabilitated to full fitness enabling a safe return to work and/or sport.
To enhance her skills with musculoskeletal disorders Juliet undertook training in orthopaedic medicine. This focused on detailed assessments, accurate diagnosis and manual therapy techniques including manipulation. Following successful completion of all four modules and exam she was invited to join Orthopaedic Medicine International as a tutor providing post graduate courses for doctors and physiotherapists.
Juliet’s special interest is in the management of musculoskeletal disorders from initial treatment through to return to full function. Attention is given to providing patients with a full understanding of their condition and then providing a treatment package that includes an individual rehabilitation programme relevant to their work and /or sport.

Our Purpose
To help you be the best you that you can be
Book Appointment
There is no fixed duration for an appointment although they are generally in the region of 20 minutes. Conditions vary considerably in the amount of time they require. Please remember that what is achieved inside the consulting room is only a proportion of the Osteopath’s work. It is necessary for Osteopaths to keep relevant notes, communicate with GPs, review hospital X-rays and Scans, write reports, liaise with our staff and upgrade our skills.

I'd suffered whiplash after a bump in the car, it was agony to move! But after a short set of treatments at Gelson's clinic I was feeling normal again...
