ABOUT DAVID WILSON B.A. D.O. MLCSP (Phys.) MCHP. FRSPH.

David graduated from the University of Edinburgh in 1979 and the European School of Osteopathy in 1990. He ran three clinical practices in Brighton, Hove and Tenterden and eventually became a partner in a practice at 104 Harley Street, London. He also lectured at the European School of Osteopathy as well as being a clinic tutor there. As a member of the Law Society’s Register of Expert Witnesses, he was called upon to compile medical reports and appear in court. He also acted as the Sussex Police Osteopath for a number of years.

David left the profession of osteopathy in 2001 to pursue other business interests but nevertheless continued to practice part-time as a Manipulative Therapist, treating a reduced number of patients. To date, David has undertaken nearly 50,000 patient treatments and is one of the UK’s most highly experienced practitioners. He has worked both in private medicine and the NHS and presently teaches CPD courses for doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, sports therapists and massage therapists.

David is conversant with most treatment techniques and modalities of conventional osteopathy and physiotherapy as well as the craniosacral and craniofascial approach. For many years now, David has specialized in severe acute neck problems, diagnosing and treating neurogenic problems such as cervical radiculopathy as well as headache syndromes. He also has experience with CVAs, brain injuries and rehabilitation. David's CPD classes are dedicated to promoting patient safety and upgrading the therapist’s clinical skills. Many of them focus on the neurological examination of the lower limbs, upper limbs and cranial nerves and the differential diagnosis of potentially dangerous problems. He is keen on detailed history-taking and teaches this when invited.

David is a Fellow of the Royal Society for Public Health and a member of the Association of British Neurologists.
