Yan-Kei Man

Registered Osteopath

Yan-Kei graduated from the European School of Osteopathy (Maidstone, UK) and obtained a Masters Degree in Osteopathy. Through the general osteopathic clinic, and the maternity and children’s clinic there, she acquired a high level of expertise across various treatment methods. These provided her with osteopathic approaches in treating the musculoskeletal system in people of all ages.

Having practiced in Sydney since 2014, Yan-Kei has returned to London. Throughout the years of practicing in Australia, Yan-Kei continually developed her skill sets by attending post-graduate courses and conferences in both Australia and Europe, including ones hosted by the Osteopathic Centre for Children (London).

Yan-Kei has a keen interest in how the organ and cranial systems affect the musculoskeletal system. She developed special interest in treating patients using ligamentous, fascial, visceral and cranial osteopathic approaches.  Some of her specialist areas in the visceral health of the body include aiding patients navigate through digestive problems such as IBS, migraine and headaches. She is also skilled in treating women’s health complains such as menstrual cramps. These developments have been supported by courses at the Barral Institute (Visceral Osteopathy), Biodynamic Osteopathic studies and Sutherland Cranial College of Osteopathy, all of which sharpen her skills as an osteopath.  

Yan-Kei's experience in working with children since 2007 in Hong Kong and India as a teacher and teaching assistant helped develop her keen interest in children’s developmental health. Yan Kei maintains a major focus on maternal and child health, and has undertaken several advanced courses in these areas.  She particularly enjoys treating babies, children and maternity patients.

I was very pleased to have assistance from Holly Jordan when I had a very painful lower back recently. I found her diagnosis very reassuring; and the treatment recommended helpful. It was good that plenty of time - over an hour - was allowed for my first initial appointment, as it was good to feel I wasn't rushed and was listened to. I am back to normal health now but would return again, if I needed to. Many thanks!

I am from Greece. I have a severe musculoskeletal problem affecting my upper and lower back. In my country, I have physical therapy sessions weekly for the past 30 years. I came to London to visit my daughter for 4 months. I had to find a therapist so as not to cease treatment for my back. I visited Simon after reading the reviews on the center’s website. Without any hesitation I want to say that I was ecstatic with the results of his work. Simon was able to meet all my needs based merely on my descriptions without even having to see X-rays of my back. He is incredibly nice, knowledgeable, motivated and friendly. I want to thank him from the bottom of my heart and I hope that he stays well and continues to offer his services to people in need for many many years to come.

Stephen; I feel so much better after the treatment. It is quite a remarkable improvement. I have regained almost 100% movement in my thoracic spine and my lower back is gradually loosening up. I can now feel and use my stomach muscles again. I have gone from spending two very bad nights as I could not get comfortable in any position and experiencing a succession of very painful and exhausting spasms to being able to sleep on my back and my side. My breathing is also deeper. I cannot thank you enough for fitting me in your busy working day, and for doing the treatment on a chair and for giving me the confidence to relax so that healing can take place.

Lara’s thoughtful, gentle, confident and knowledgeable approach results in the most expert therapeutic massage one could hope to receive. The outcome is therefore a very holistic one in which specific discomforts have been eased with and overall relaxation achieved at the same time.

Yan Kei is incredibly knowledgable. I felt completely confident in her skills, as she has made so much difference to how I feel. I am grateful for such unexpected outcomes that I didn't think it would be so good.

Just before Christmas, my back ‘went’. By ‘went’ I mean I could barely walk and had constant pain in my lower back and leg. I was off work and spent most of the time lying on the floor. I was treated by Stephen and Simon, both of whom have a professional but very calm manner – ideal for anyone who’s in a lot of pain. They identified muscle and sciatic nerve damage. They obviously knew what they were doing because the pain gradually started to ease, such that by the beginning of March I was back on the treadmill in the gym. Would I use SW19Osteopaths again? Definitely. Only this time I’d go sooner.

My daughter has just played her cello for the first time in four months without experiencing pain. Stephen, we are amazed and delighted!

Our 10 week old baby was so tetchy and uncomfortable. He was crying all the time and writhing about seemingly with ongoing pain due to his bubbling tummy. Stephen Beaver held him gently and I don't know what he did, but after a few treatments there are no more issues, and he is a settled happy chap. Stephen also noticed the baby's head was tuning always to one side, and this has also been resolved with treatment. Great result. Thanks so much

Stephen has been my osteopath for many years and has helped me recover from several serious operations. The atmosphere in the clinic is so calm and relaxing, and Stephen is an absolute professional in everything he does. He truly has healing hands.

Over the last 6 months Lara has effectively used the Emmett Technique to eliminate my persistent lower back pain as well as foot and heel pain. She has also been able to relieve stress and tension from my neck and shoulders. The relief, as a result of her treatments, is immediate and long-lasting. I would highly recommend her treatments.
