A graduate of the College of Osteopaths at Middlesex University, Corinne F\u00e9devieille is a fully registered osteopath listed with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC no. 5633). She is also a member of the Institute of Osteopathy (iO) and the UFOF (Union of French-Trained Osteopaths): three professional affiliations that reflect a standard of practice recognised on both sides of the Channel.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Established in London since 2004, Corinne built her early practice working with clients from the media and advertising industries, an environment that gave her deep expertise in treating patients dealing with high levels of professional stress.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Cranial, visceral and specialist approaches\n\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Beyond general osteopathy, Corinne has developed advanced expertise in cranial and visceral osteopathy through extensive postgraduate training with Jean-Pierre Barral, one of the world’s foremost authorities in visceral manipulation. Her additional qualifications cover somato-emotional release, neural and vascular manipulation, fascia manipulation, paediatric osteopathy and biodynamics, the latter studied with Dr Jim Jealous in the United States.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

She also has a particular interest in energetic osteopathy, a complementary approach that considers the body in its entirety, beyond purely structural mechanics. This breadth of technique allows her to adapt precisely to each patient: whether an adult with chronic pain, a pregnant woman or a newborn.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Your first consultation (45 minutes)\n\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Your first consultation lasts 45 minutes and begins with a thorough case history: Corinne takes time to understand your medical background, lifestyle, and the precise nature of your symptoms. This listening phase is fundamental, as osteopathy treats the patient as a whole rather than addressing symptoms in isolation.<\/span><\/p>

The assessment follows: postural analysis, evaluation of joint mobility and tissue tension, palpation of musculoskeletal, visceral and cranial structures as appropriate. Treatment begins within the same session, using techniques suited to your condition: gentle mobilisations, structural manipulation, cranial or visceral techniques. At the end of the appointment, Corinne shares her observations and, where relevant, postural advice or exercises to support your progress between sessions.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Follow-up sessions also last 45 minutes. Their frequency depends on your situation: some patients benefit from two or three closely spaced sessions during an acute phase, while others prefer regular appointments as a preventive measure. Corinne adapts her approach at each session based on how your body is responding and your own feedback.<\/span><\/p>

For patients who need urgent care, Kensington Clinic offers same-day last-minute appointments booked directly through reception, a level of flexibility that is genuinely rare in London’s private healthcare sector.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Osteopathy is a manual healthcare discipline based on the principle that the body’s structure and function are deeply interconnected. When any part of the body loses its mobility, whether a joint, a muscle, an organ or connective tissue, this can generate tension, compensatory patterns and pain that may appear far from the original source.<\/span><\/p>

An osteopath works with their hands to identify and address these mobility restrictions. The approach is holistic: rather than treating only the painful area, the osteopath seeks to understand why that area is under strain and which surrounding structures are contributing. Techniques vary according to the patient and the condition, ranging from structural manipulation and myofascial release to craniosacral therapy, visceral work and manual lymphatic drainage.<\/span><\/p>

Osteopathic treatment is suitable for both acute and chronic conditions, and integrates well alongside medical or physiotherapy care.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
