Osteopathy & Acupuncture Treatments
Caring for Cumbria, Lancashire and the Surrounding Areas
Welcome to Cumbria Osteopathy
At Cumbria Osteopathy, we provide expert osteopathic care for people of all ages – and we’re proud to be one of the few clinics in the region to also offer specialist treatment for horses and dogs. Led by Niki Matthews, an experienced osteopath and registered acupuncturist, our team takes a truly holistic approach to improving movement, posture and wellbeing for both people and animals.
Niki’s passion for supporting the horse and rider partnership is central to our work. As part of our equine services, we offer dedicated posture assessments and lessons for both horse and rider – helping improve balance, comfort and connection through tailored osteopathic support.
Based just outside Kirkby Lonsdale, our clinic offers a calm, welcoming environment where people and animals alike can receive professional, hands-on treatment. Whether you’re struggling with ongoing pain, recovering from injury, or looking to improve posture and performance, we’re here to support your health and movement naturally.
In addition to osteopathy, we also offer acupuncture for humans as part of our holistic approach – helping to relieve pain, reduce tension and support overall wellbeing.
With years of experience in both human and animal osteopathy, we’re proud to work with clients of all ages and abilities. From postural support and rehabilitation to performance care for horses and musculoskeletal issues in dogs, we take a personalised approach to every case. At Cumbria Osteopathy, your wellbeing – and that of your four-legged companions – is always our priority.
Relieving pain, restoring balance,
and supporting long-term wellbeing.
Gentle, Effective Care for Every Body
At Cumbria Osteopathy, we provide gentle, hands-on treatment tailored to each individual. Our approach focuses on restoring movement, relieving discomfort and supporting long-term wellbeing through whole-body care.
We understand that no two bodies are the same. That’s why we take the time to listen, assess and treat with care – combining clinical expertise with compassion to help you feel more comfortable, balanced and mobile.
Our treatments are built on the principle that structure and function are closely connected. By looking beyond the symptoms to identify the root cause, we support the body’s natural ability to heal, move and perform at its best.
In addition to osteopathy, we also offer acupuncture for humans – a precise and effective way to relieve pain, reduce tension and support recovery.
Whether you’re recovering from injury, managing ongoing discomfort, or simply want to move more freely, we’re here to help.
