Central Oxford Osteopathy was founded by Principal Osteopath Jamie Dearing in 2011, creating a warm, welcoming clinic in the heart of historic Oxford. For our first ten years, we were located by Frideswide Square. We now occupy a beautiful Victorian building on the Abingdon Road, overlooking University playing fields and next to Hinksey Park.
Jamie trained and initially practiced in London, before moving with his family to Oxford. Since then his practice has grown with the addition of Associate Osteopaths, and diversified by hosting a wider range of health professionals – from acupuncture practitioners to talking therapists.
Jamie is a friendly, award-winning Osteopath based in central Oxford. He trained at the London School of Osteopathy (LSO), where he was awarded the senior management prize for all-round ability. He has since gone on to publish osteopathic research in academic journals, presented his work at conferences and is also involved in Osteopathic education as a Clinic Supervisor at the LSO.
Ladina enjoys treating patients of all ages and is passionate about identifying and treating the underlying cause of their pain. She uses a holistic treatment approach, addressing the individual needs of each patient.
Jamie helped relieve my chronic back pain. I feel like I have my life back!

Get long-term relief from chronic back pain, sciatica and disc injuries — without injections or surgery. IDD Therapy (Intervertebral Differential Dynamics) is the leading form of non-surgical spinal decompression, gently but effectively relieving pressure on problematic spinal discs while improving mobility and supporting long-term healing.
Using the Accu-SPINA system — globally recognised as the gold standard — IDD Therapy allows us to decompress a specific spinal level, something traditional traction could never do.
Conditions treated: Herniated or bulging discs, sciatica & nerve pain, degenerative disc disease, facet joint syndrome, spinal stenosis, and chronic back or neck pain.
Congratulations to the newest member of our team, Ladina Berther, for being the well deserved winner of the 'Rising Star' award at this years annual Institute of Osteopathy awards ceremony! The award shines a spotlight on her outstanding achievements to date. And we look forward to seeing her continued exceptional contribution to patient care here at Central Oxford Osteopathy....
