Patient comments
osteopath
"My Doctor referred me to Dr Damian Poustie for headaches and neck pain that i had put up with for years. After the very first visit the headaches and neck pain started to lift. He told me exactly what was causing the problem and how i could stop it coming back. I only wish that i went to him sooner. Many thanks. Marita
