Harcombe Osteopathy

Fantastic experience: I’ve seen Chris three times now and I’m genuinely impressed with the results. My back pain is gone, my neck pain is gone, and I feel so much better overall. Chris is friendly, professional, and clearly knows his craft. He takes the time to explain what’s causing the problem and the treatment never feels rushed. If you’re looking for an osteopath who is knowledgeable, approachable, and gets results, I can highly recommend Chris.

Fantastic experience: Chris was great at helping relieve my sciatica in early pregnancy. I’d never seen an osteopath before and he put me at ease straight away. He was quick and efficient at getting me moving comfortably again!

Fantastic experience: Chris offers a hollistic approach to his craft. I personally had noticeable changes immediately after our session. I'd recommend Chris due to his thorough approach to supporting your needs. Worth a proactive visit to keep your body aligned and functioning well.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular from the first session the pain disappeared and that night I was able to sleep wonderfully.

Fantastic experience: Chris was fantastic! I came in with quite severe lower back pain that I could not exercise out of. Chris identified the issue and treated it effectively over three half hour sessions, and I am now back to full movement and the gym, which I am delighted about. Chris has a warm professional manner which is a pleasure. Thank you again, and I highly recommend Chris.

Fantastic experience: Chris was absolutely amazing! I went to him with acute lower back pain causing me immense discomfort. From my first session he knew what the issue was and within 3 visits/treatments I was back to normal and back into my usual training. I highly highly recommend to anyone experiencing any issues. I will be back for sure!

Fantastic experience: I visited Chris after over four years of persistent hip pain, following two surgeries and countless visits to other specialists. Chris was exceptional—attentive, thorough, and genuinely invested in addressing my concerns. His methodical approach not only alleviated my hip pain but improved my overall mobility. Thanks to him, I’m back to running and feeling better than ever. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Chris is very kind; he works wholistically to heal upper back and shoulder pain. Has helped me with neck stiffness I've had for awhile now. Also, he treated my 12y old daughter, who was very anxious... He was gentle, patient and observant. Would recommend if you are near the CBD.

Fantastic experience: I had chronic migraines and neck issues for the past 2 years. Finding Chris was a boon. Been getting my treatments from Chris for the past six months now. He is a very patient listener, with great experience in what he does. He can catch the tensions on your body very professionally. I have had a massive improvement with each and every treatment. And definitely recommend him to my friends and colleagues. Thank You Chris :)

Fantastic experience: Chris is superb. He listens, he is wholistic, he not only looks at the injury site but also checks the whole body and how it is functioning as a whole. It’s less transactional and more focussed on getting the best pain free movement so you can be your best. I appreciate the care and certainly appreciate my back feeling so much better. A very gentle approach. Thanks Chris.

Fantastic experience: Chris has really helped me with my hip & lower back issues. I'm now pain-free and have much improved movement. I highly recommend Chris.

Fantastic experience: I came to Chris with neck pain that's been bothering me for a long time. In four sessions my neck feels better than it has in years! Great work!

Fantastic experience: Great service, highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: I 100% recommend Harcombe Osteopathy! He got rid of my back pain and blockage in one session after it had been bothering me for several weeks. A second session corrected the alignment of my spine. What's more, Chris is very friendly and always has good stories to tell!

Fantastic experience: After being dogged for two years by persistent, breathtaking lower back pain, Chris has transformed me in four, half-hour sessions. His integrated, whole-body approach has meant he's "read" my body quickly and resolved significant primary pain and a range of secondary impacts effectively. Chris listens closely, which is fantastic when you feel you've not been heard by other practitioners. And his warm, friendly and supportive approach makes each session a pleasure that gets rid of the pain Recommended unreservedly.

Fantastic experience: Chris quickly got to the root of my problem, talked me through the treatment plan and delivered it exactly. Easy going and relaxed.

Fantastic experience: Chris always explains what the issue is, and how it all works, and his treatment seems to do the trick. Been going off and on for about 9 years… he’s moved rooms 3 times since then but the latest one is the best.

Fantastic experience: Amazing thing that could ever happen when it came to problems related to my lower back and hips. Checked up with a lot of people (gp, chiropractor, etc) but was unable to get rid of the pain until i met Chris. And man he knows what he is doing, a little look at your muscle movements and he could tell what the underlying issues were Highly suggest

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Chris enough! I've suffered from back/leg pain for almost 6 months and saw every health provider out there, from physio to acupuncture - even a specialist. No one was able to figure out what's going on. Desperate for some form of betterment I came across Chris and all the outstanding reviews and they don't lie! The first treatment with Chris had me walk out almost pain free after having chronic daily pain for months. And it keeps improving. I'm very grateful Chris, you deserve 6 stars!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service, highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I did 4 sessions with Harcombe Osteopathy for neck issues and i had been getting very frequent headaches. I have found these sessions extremely beneficial and cannot recommend Chris enough. Chris is excellent at explaining all that he is doing. I feel with a practice such as osteopathy you really need to trust your practitioner and that is why i highly recommend Harcombe Osteopathy.

Fantastic experience: I've been to different places but this place is def the one that fixed my lower back problem. Chris is very good at what he does. Highly recommend his professional service!

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Chris enough! I hadn’t visited an osteopath in about three years, so came to my first appointment needing a total reset. Chris was super friendly and by the end of my appointments, I was no longer in pain and could move freely again! Chris is a total pro who deserves all the praise.

Fantastic experience: Chris is a great guy and full of knowledge. My back and neck pain was reduced greatly over the course of treatment with him.

Fantastic experience: Chris is a wonderful Osteopath. I have had minor back pain and discomfort for years. Recently when I badly hurt my back he was able to see me urgently, and had me fixed up in 3 sessions. Very relieved! Harcombe Osteopathy is excellent.

Fantastic experience: was suffering from hip pain for a few years and Chris was able to help and relieve it after 3 sessions. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: I'd been suffering from lower back paid for several weeks before visiting Chris. He quickly diagnosed this was due to my pelvis being misaligned. After a couple of treatments the pain has totally cleared. I would highly recommend Chris's services.

Fantastic experience: Seeing Chris was my first experience with an Osteopath and he was excellent. He has made a real difference to my back which had been causing me trouble.

Positive experience: Went in to get an acute lower back problem sorted and fixed it completely after 3 session. Great result.

Fantastic experience: Can not say enough about how good Harcombe Osteopathy is. Made an instant difference. Very personable as well. :)

Fantastic experience: Having never been to an Osteopath for treatment in the past I wasn't sure how successful it would be for my sciatica, however I was pleasantly surprised that it made significant changes very quickly. Chris is always professional and friendly and I would happily recommend his service to anyone considering osteopathy treatment.

Fantastic experience: I had shoulder pain for 3 months (several physio apps) and after one session with Chris I was feeling great! I seen him for 3 sessions and feeling back to myself now.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service from Chris, fixed up my long standing lower back and neck pains and strains. Also my shoulder muscles are no longer stiff and strained!

Fantastic experience: I have persistent lower-back pain issues and visited Chris following a recommendation from a work colleague. Rather than just focusing on the affected area Chris was able to evaluate if and how other parts affect the area of injury. I continue to visit Chris for ongoing maintenance treatment. He is professional and extremely knowledgeable in his field and I hold him in high regard.

Fantastic experience: I saw Chris after feeling tightness through my chest and back. Chris was very open and honest with his assessment. And after my first visit I noticed a definite improvement and would happily visit Chris again in the future. Definitely worth it.

Fantastic experience: Chris is honest and professional in tailoring a treatment plan that best suits your needs. In just one session, I was able to sense the difference it made to easing the stiffness and tension in my neck and upper back. He is very personable in his approach to patients and makes them feel comfortable and at ease. I would not hesitate to recommend him!

Fantastic experience: I had suffered on and off from neck and shoulder pain for years. After just three treatments, I am completely pain free. Chris is personable, professional, and takes a holistic approach in order to find the root of the problem and determine the best course of treatment. I had never been to see an osteopath before, but from now on I will definitely be going to see Chris if I experience any similar issues in the future.

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Chris to anyone, amazing treatment, a friendly face and I have learnt so much! Wonderful service, definitely give the treatments a go, you won't be disappointed

Fantastic experience: Excellent Osteopath! Chris has really helped me with my back and neck injury. He is personable and extremely skilled. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Chris is very skilled and personable, he makes you feel very relaxed and you leave feeling instantly better. After the sessions I go to work for the day, and there is no issues doing that, no need to go to bed after the adjustment. Highly recommend Harcombe Osteopathy.

Fantastic experience: A friend recommended I go to see Chris to assist with a eustachian tube issue that I had been told couldn't be treated. It was a last resort and I didn't have high expectations. Chris takes an overall structural approach and has treated my whole body, not just my ear. I have been genuinely amazed at how I feel more 'balanced'. Highly recommended, Chris is professional, knowledgeable and easy going. I have already referred two other people to see him.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Chris. I've seen many osteopaths over the past 15 years - in NZ and abroad - and I consider Chris the best. After a particularly long stint of having no treatment (and some ineffective treatment elsewhere) I was feeling tight, sore and was suffering from daily headaches. Through gentle manipulation and a good dose of the detective, Chris has ironed out my problems. To say I feel better now is an understatement. Thank you Chris.

Fantastic experience: Chris is a very down to earth guy who has one thing on his mind, to get you sorted...A family man, Chris has the skills and techniques to aid your body in recovery, he's helped me on many occasions after sporting injuries to get back asap. Great location also in the heart of the city. Thanks chris, I'll be back when I do more damage!!

Fantastic experience: Chris is an amazing osteo. Would highly recommend for sports rehab and treatment.

Fantastic experience: I was suffering reduced turning movement in my neck and finding it hard to look over my shoulder. Good look out is important to me in my chosen sport of gliding and in just one treatment I had full movement back again. I felt 20 years younger! I am now booked in for regular 'maintenance' from Chris and for anybody suffering from reduced movement I would highly recommend they go see Chris.

Fantastic experience: Chris is an amazing Osteo, he is gentle, friendly and knows what he is doing. He has cured many of the staff at our work who have lived with continous lower back pain from working in an office in a short amount of time. I spent nearly 4 months going to a chriopractor on a weekly basis. It was very rough and quick. I was in and out in 5 minutes. Chris has cured me after 3 visits. No more pain in my shoulders or lower back. Now I will see him for regular maintenance. I wish more people knew to go to Osteopaths! You won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: Chris is personable, thorough, passionate and professional, and I would highly recommend him as a great Osteopath. I initially saw him for a hip flexor injury, which very quickly healed after seeing him in just one session. He looks at how your whole body is working and aims to get it to function at its best; I really feel like he has made some great changes in my alignment (and overall feeling of wellbeing), in the treatments we have had so far and I look forward to continue working with him in the future. Thanks Chris! :)

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend coming to Chris Harcombe Osteopath. He is a fantastic osteopath who is very passionate and thorough at what he does. What I like most about him, is he doesn't just look at the injured area he looks at how everything is functioning. And will quickly find where the miss functions are and adjust them to help the body move correctly again. Cheers and Thanks
