Revival Health and Wellbeing Centre in Inkberrow offers osteopathy with Chris Wilkes, whose particular interests include movement assessment, exercise rehabilitation, and the way people walk and run. Chris combines hands-on treatment with exercise and lifestyle coaching, working with patients to understand their difficulties and what they want to return to doing. This may be useful for someone looking for an osteopath who places particular emphasis on movement and rehabilitation alongside treatment.
Chris qualified in 2009 from the University College of Osteopathy with distinction. His qualifications include BOst, PGCert and Fellowship of Applied Functional Science, following postgraduate study with the Gray Institute in the USA. He is also an NG360 Nike Golf Performance Specialist. His clinical background includes four years at Pure Sports Medicine, where he worked as a team leader, and work at professional golf, mountain biking and hockey competitions.
Alongside clinical practice, Chris teaches other healthcare professionals through Thirst 4 Function, the education company he founded in 2012. He began working as a lecturer and clinic tutor at the University College of Osteopathy in 2018, later becoming unit leader for the clinical aspects of the course.
Revival Health and Wellbeing Centre describes the first osteopathy appointment as including assessment, a physical examination, treatment and discussion of a care plan. Patients receive an explanation of their diagnosis, exercises and advice, with input from other team members discussed where appropriate. The centre also offers physiotherapy, acupuncture and a gym used for rehabilitation programmes. All its osteopaths are registered with the General Osteopathic Council.
Initial osteopathy appointments cost £100 for 60 minutes; follow-ups cost £55 for 30 minutes or £75 for 45 minutes. The centre is on Inkberrow High Street, with evening treatment appointments Monday to Thursday and Saturday morning availability.
