Simon Grayling

Registered Osteopath BSc (Hons) MSc.

Simon is the senior associate at the practice. 

First graduating from The British School of Osteopathy in 2005 (now The University College of Osteopathy), Simon then later consolidated his training by studying for another two years at The Osteopathic Centre for Children, and gained his masters degree in Paediatric Osteopathy. 

Since 2006 Simon has been working at SW19 Osteopaths and he is proud to serve and feel part of the vibrant Colliers Wood community. He is strong in both structural and cranial osteopathic approaches and tailors his treatment style to suit the patient.

Simon first came to Osteopathy after his daughter received treatment on the midwife’s recommendation following a difficult birth, and the experience affected him as positively as it did his daughter. He had personally experienced the power and beauty of osteopathy, and felt drawn to explore its potential, and this led Simon to re-train and change his career, resulting in a job that he loves. 

In addition to his days at SW19 Osteopaths, Simon also works one day a week at the Osteopathic Centre for Children (the highly regarded charitable children’s clinic) where he has been a clinical tutor since 2015. He uses his enthusiasm for osteopathy to teach post-graduate students about Osteopathy in general and children’s health in particular. So, whilst Simon is expert in treating babies and children, he also loves the variety of adult patients he treats in this clinic, for a wide range of difficulties, and never tires of helping people of all ages to be pain-free and comfortable.

As a lifelong Londoner, Simon lives in Brixton, has three children and has lived a varied and exciting life and he brings this experience to his practice. He is a keen commute cyclist which helps keep him fit, and he also enjoys the gentler things in life like cooking, reading and walking.

Charley worked wonders with my back after it had seized up after carrying and giving birth to my daughter. She did a thorough assessment of the (multiple!) problems and worked her magic within a couple of sessions. I wouldn't hesitate to return to Charley for any future problems. Thank you

Cecily, Tooting

Hey Charley! Just letting you know my tennis elbow is basically solved – no pain, at all. Quite remarkable. THANK YOU so much.

Zubin (Sydney, Australia)

I recommend Charley thoroughly. I have had years of sudden onsets of back pain that have interfered with daily life. I have never been sure of the difference between an osteopath, a chiropractor and a physio (despite even receiving some physio in the past that didn’t resolve the issue) and I was a bit sceptical of seeing an osteopath at first. I was incredibly impressed with Charley’s thorough initial consultation, checking every avenue for my back pain. The treatments have been remarkable and I am shocked by how quickly I have responded to Charley’s treatment and her detailed exercise plan to support my core and increase my back mobility. Charley’s manner is friendly; she puts you at ease whilst being professionally direct and always very attentive. I strongly recommend Charley.

I've been visiting the practice since February and have been seen by Yan-Kei. I'm just writing to leave a brief review of the practice and of her. The treatment I have received from Yan-Kei has benefited me greatly and I am improved in all aspects of life. I would recommend this treatment to anyone who feels any sense of discomfort and seeks to change their life for the better. Look forward to my next visit

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.

Sabine, SW London

Yan Kei is an excellent osteopath. She help me to recover from my issues with Achilles tendons and back problem. Highly recommended.

MM Colliers Wood

I damaged my knee in a motorcycle accident and have had trouble with it ever since. I work in the building trade and have to keep fit and active. Stephen has managed my knee and other associated problems, and without his skill I would not have been able to continue with my job. He has even enabled me to go skiing, although this was against his better judgment! If you are looking for an experienced osteopath, then you need look no further; his skill is unrivalled.

Dave D, Wallington

Finding Simon has had a profound impact on my health and recovery. I have found him to be a wonderful balance of professionalism coupled with a sensitivity and intuition that had supported me when I most needed it.

Anna, London

It was my first time seeing an osteopath and Charley was incredible. She is both knowledgeable and personable, she makes you feel completely comfortable and in extremely safe hands. I really feel like she wants you to get better and to really get to the root of what is causing the pain and discomfort. The exercises and stretches she taught me have become part of my daily routine and I have noticed a real difference. Thank you Charley!

Natasha, Mitcham

I saw Yan-Kei Man following a musculoskeletal injury, which she helped me treat. Impressed with Yan-Kei's professionalism and attentiveness, I have since introduced my young kids (3 and 5 years old) to osteopathy. In hindsight, a wise decision given that a scooter accident had left my 5 year old with a slight postural dysfunction. I thoroughly recommend Yan-Kei for her specialisation and impeccable manners.
