Hannah Stringer BSc (Hons) B.Ost
Practice Principal
GOSC no 5888 no 5888

Like many osteopaths Hannah developed an interest in osteopathy after receiving effective treatment herself for a neck injury when she was in her teens.

Hannah qualified in BSc Hons Sports Science and Physiology at Leeds University, before going on to study at The British School of Osteopathy in London.

Qualifying with a distinction in 2005, Hannah returned to Yorkshire to work at a number of the region’s leading osteopathy practices, before taking on the role of looking after a semi-professional rugby team! During this time, Hannah also completed her postgraduate training in cranial osteopathy.

In May 2009, Hannah set up Holme Valley Osteopathy and has never looked back!

She says:
“I love to see the transformation osteopathy can make to people’s quality of life. It really focuses on the cause of the problem and why it’s happened, rather than just treating the specific area of
pain.“

When she’s not at the practice, Hannah enjoys running and is a busy mum of two. Enjoying nothing more than spending quality time with her family and friends.

Sarah Barker M.OSt

Osteopath
GOSC no 9843

Sarah completed her Osteopathic training at Leeds Metropolitan University to achieve a Masters’ Degree in Osteopathy in 2016. She studied Osteopathy because she simply wanted to ‘help relieve people of pain and get them back to their everyday hobbies and activities that they enjoy’.
Sarah says “Our bodies struggle to overcome injury and pain by adapting and compensating which can create further issues. These factors also need to be dealt with. I often find I need to give a few patient specific exercises which hands back control of recovery to the patient”.

Sarah treats a range of musculoskeletal conditions but she has a particular interest in treating Cervical (neck) pain and upper back pain. This is often as a result of poor posture, which can usually be addressed within a few treatments.

Since graduating Sarah has undertaken further study including Cranial Osteopathy and Dry Needling, (western version of acupuncture), and she integrates these techniques where appropriate.

In her spare time Sarah attends the gym, reads when she can and plays football, which she has done since the age of 11. During the nicer months of the year she enjoys walking in the peaks, her favourite ones to date are Mam Tor, Bakewell and Eyam.
