Professional profile:

Jonathan qualified from the British School of Osteopathy in 1997 with a B.Sc. Hons (Ost.) and in 2001 moved to Wales in order to start his osteopathic practice in Penarth. At the same time he started to work from the Spire Cardiff Hospital and started working alongside the physiotherapy team in 2002.
