I went in to see Hussein with sudden sharp pain in my shoulder, I could barley move. Within the first session he located the problem, got to work and elevated the pain. I went back in two days later for a follow up session and by the end of that day I felt no pain at all. I am going back to see him for more preventative treatments. Thanks so much Hussien.

I have been a patient of the wonderful Hussein Eshref at Canonbury Clinic of Osteopathy for almost 20 years. His expertise, experience and incredibly caring / gentle bedside manner make his sessions healing both physically and emotionally. He's a master at getting right to the stress point. I always leave the appointment with not only pain relief and alignment, but an overall lightness of being. I cannot recommend Hussein highly enough.

Oh thanks so much Emma for your kind and considered words.

You would be hard-pressed to find a better osteopath than Hussein Eshref. He is a great listener with an innate understanding of the body who does his work with gentle and decisive strength. I have gone to Hussein on multiple occasions with issues to do with my back and plantar fasciitis. His work was instrumental in getting me through them. Hussein is a true professional who also gives off the wonderful vibe of a healer. I have the ultimate confidence in him and cannot recommend him enough.

Thank you Joe for your considered words. Appreciate it

I've been a client of Canonbury Clinic Of Osteopathy for something like 20 years, especially during a phase of my life when I trained for marathons, triathlons and even a white-collar boxing match. I would come to Hussein with a new strain, sprain or pull and without fail he would make me feel better within a few visits. He simply knows what he's doing so it's easy to trust him but he is also willing to invest in the latest technology to speed up the healing process. I have complete faith in Hussein's abilities and I would recommend him to anyone... I already do!

It's been a pleasure to treat you and Ami over the years Jamie. Thanks for the great review

On arrival in Islington nearly 30 years ago, I needed a good osteopath given the back injuries I had sustained in my youth and fortunately I stumbled upon Hussein. From the get-go I was impressed with him; he always gives a thorough holistic assessment/review, provides very hands-on treatment and is very knowledgeable and approachable. I also have a solid confidence in his abilities even at those potentially scary neck/back cracking moments. Many years later, he still remains my go-to osteopath and TBH I'm not sure what I would do without his input, keeping me mobile and pain free. I would definitely recommend him to others as a cracking good osteopath.

We feel fortunate to have found Hussein. He has treated three generations of my family over the last decade, with exceptional care and professionalism. His expert knowledge, advice, calm manner and clear explanations make a big difference, and he makes young people feel confident and at ease. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Thank you Juliana. It's been a real pleasure to see you and your family over the years.

Hussein is an absolute lifesaver - I've struggled with back pain for 20+ years, and he always gets me back on my feet when I get spasms or other acute episodes, does a great job with maintenance and prevention, and has taught me a lot about how to change my habits and lifestyle to avoid future injuries. And he's a wonderful person on top of that. Whenever a friend has back issues I send them his way - couldn't recommend him enough!

I have always found Hussein very professional, focused and immensely helpful in knowing what the problem is and finding the solution. Sometimes in just one visit! I highly recommend him as an osteopath.
