Carmel Smythe - Osteopath in Cheltenham
Welcome to my site, my name is Carmel Smythe and I am an osteopath based in Charlton Kings, Cheltenham.
Osteopathy can treat a wide range of conditions, including back and joint pains, headaches arising from the neck and arthritic complaints.
I graduated from The European School of Osteopathy in 1989 after completing a 4 year course. Since then I have been working in Cheltenham and Tewkesbury, where I have enjoyed the challenge of treating a wide range of complaints.
I regularly meet up with colleagues and also attend training course and seminars. All osteopaths are required to complete a minimum of 30 hours of continual professional development (CPD) each year.
