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.

I thought the treatment for pain in my knee was excellent. I felt I was being considered as an individual as Stephen listened to everything I said and gave a treatment appropriate to my needs. His approach was non-invasive. I began to notice an improvement in my knee after a couple of days and the pain has not recurred. To me, it felt as if each treatment enabled my body to correct itself and rebalance.

Having suffered from a shoulder injury since last September and following unsuccessful physio, I decided to try SW19 Osteopath and Yan-Kei has been amazing. Not only has my mobility greatly improved as has my posture and knee pain, I am no longer in pain. Amazing at how effective this has been for me in such a short period of time, and I now am able to return back to sports. Yan-Kei explains what she is doing and definitely is invested in my well-being and although I am so much better, I will make this as part of my self care and ensure that I visit her every 5 – 6 weeks to re-balance myself. I highly recommend Yan-Kei; I truly feel she has worked wonders for me.

I have seen Charley for several months for my neck pain, sinus pain and knee pain. Her gentle but assertive treatments have released the tension and relieved the pain – instantly in the case of my neck. She also provided exercises and advice, which I continue to use. I would recommend her without hesitation.

My personal experience at SW19 Osteopaths has been wonderful. My osteopath, Charley, is vey efficient at her work whilst maintaining a professional manner. In addition to this, she is always on time for our appointments which is very helpful when on a tight schedule. I have now completed five sessions of osteopathy with Charley which have greatly benefited the issues I experience with my back. I would highly recommend attending SW19 Osteopaths especially having Charley as your therapist as she is very welcoming and great at answering any queries and/or questions you may have and overall amazing at what she does. Many thanks

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.

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!

I started seeing Lara about my sinuses, which have cleared. She has also helped me with my neck pain and digestive problems. Thank you so much Lara.

Anne, Teacher

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.
