Testimonials
I had back and neck problems previously in the UK, which responded very well to treatment from my osteopath there, Pushpa Rathod. After I moved to Christchurch 7 years ago I had a recurrence of my back and neck pain. I had consultations with several local osteopaths, but didn't get much improvement. I spoke to Pushpa in the UK, and she recommended Philip Bayliss to me, explaining that he had trained her in the very gentle and effective techniques that she uses. I went to see Philip, and my neck and back pain cleared up very quickly, as it has in the couple of times since then that I have had a reoccurrence.

Philip is somebody for whom healing work is a calling, and his raison d’ętre, to which he has been dedicated for decades and which he feels gives his life meaning and purpose. We have both had the pleasure of being treated by him in the past and therefore know from direct experience that he is a highly effective practitioner, of enormous skill, empathy and knowledge.

I am an elderly person and have had both osteopathy and chiropractic from a wide range of good and not-so-good practitioners both in New Zealand and overseas. I have no hesitation in recommending Philip Bayliss. Philip’s training, broad experience and natural gifts were evident in his attitude and hands-on skills from the first visit I made to him as an ACC patient with spinal problems and headaches. It is also great to have met someone so clearly full of integrity.
Dr Margaret Glover
I am a classical ballet student had problems with pain in my backside and recurrent dislocations of my right hip, which was threatening my career. I tried physiotherapy, but it didn't help, so my GP referred me to an orthopaedic specialist. He sent me for an MRI scan, but it didn't show anything relevant, so he couldn't help me. My ballet teacher advised me to see Philip Bayliss, as he was previously osteopath to the Royal Ballet, Ballet Rambert and the London Contemporary Dance Theatre. He found that I had sprained my sacro-iliac joints resulting in a 'twisted pelvis' which had moved the socket of the hip joint. This caused my leg to rotate at the hip joint and not fit fully into its socket, making it easy to dislocate. After the first treatment the pain in my backside stopped completely, and over the next month I got steadily fewer dislocations and I am now fine and back to training full time.

Late last year I slipped and fell onto my kitchen floor, landing hard on my hip and spraining my right ankle. After several months of treatment my hip was not improving. In fact it was getting worse. I consulted Dr Bayliss and from the first treatment I could feel a vast improvement in mobility and a lessening of pain. I have no pain in my hip anymore and no longer walk with a limp. I am so grateful to Philip and for his expert care and his amusing and positive attitude towards life.

I had a surgical fusion to my lower vertebrae in my early teens, and have had episodes of severe low back pain with sciatica ever since. I'm now 34 years old with three children, and my upper back also plays up a lot. There have been times when I could hardly stand or walk. When I first saw Philip over three years ago I was in agony, and after my first treatment I felt so much better. His treatments never hurt and he always finds the right spots, even ones I didn't know I had! I’ve tried massage therapists and chiropractors, but Philips’ results are by far the best. I highly recommend Philip as an osteopath and give him a 10 out of 10 rating for his work. Thank you Philip!
