Stephen Beaver

Principal Osteopath

Stephen Beaver DO Dip. Paed. Ost. is the principal practitioner and founder of SW19 Osteopaths. A practicing osteopath for more than 30 years, he is still passionate about learning and developing his osteopathic skills and effectiveness. 

Stephen was one of the first osteopaths in Britain to gain a formal qualification in paediatric (children's) osteopathy and taught in this field in the UK and internationally for more than a decade. Currently he devotes his time to everyday patient care in his clinic, helping people resolve their physical issues and pain and developing new skills in specialist areas, such as chronic fatigue syndrome and severe neuro-spinal injury. 

He has always practiced in Wimbledon and is well known locally with word of mouth referrals bringing people to see him. He has treated and cared for four generations of some families.
Osteopathy was a second career for Stephen after he was treated for a back injury; prior to this he worked as a Luthier and woodcarver and he believes that craftsmanship, science and a little inspiration all combine to make the osteopathic art. 

I have been seeing Steve on and off for years. Every time I see him I feel as if I have been put back together. He’s an incredible osteopath. I highly recommend the practice because of their ethos and very high standard of treatment.

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.

I have had several treatments with Steve over the years for neck pain, back pain and under active thyroid. Steve has natural healing hands as well as a bank of experience and knowledge, which enhance his effectiveness. He is a very skilled practitioner both sensitive and subtle with powerful results; I have completely recovered from these conditions.

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.

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.

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!

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.
