Hatfield Practice

I’ve been having treatment at The Hatfield Practice for a number of years for various complaints and have always been looked after exceptionally well. I have a very complicated history, but extreme care is taken by the whole team to make every visit as welcoming and comfortable as possible. Just wanted to thank Ian, Helen, Marcella and all the reception staff for their continued help and support in everything they do for my well-being.

I had never had acupuncture until I made an appointment with Anita. I wish I’d tried it earlier, the relief from pain has been astounding. I was at the point of not being able to hold a pen and write, now I do so without even a twinge. The practice is slick and efficient and friendly. Anita is calmly reassuring and the outcome has exceeded my expectations. Thank you!

What a "tour de force" this team is, who approach the care of each individual with care/ professionalism / discretion/ safety and mindfulness. Their approach is all encompassing, up-lifting and holistic, with total well -being core to their treatments. I can't recommend Helen, Ian and their hand picked team enough for the improvement of body (of course) mind and soul….

I was referred by a friend. I called and the person who answered the phone was very helpful and pleasant. I was booked in 2 days later. I have lower back pain and was allocated Damian. On arrival easy parking and everything was Covid safe. Damian came and met me, listened and asked a number of questions. He then checked what he thought my injury was with a number of exercises. I then had Physio on my Facet joint and given a number of exercises. A very knowledgeable and friendly man. I have a few more appointments and would definitely recommend.Moreexpand_more

I visited the practice last week, for a massage with chiara, she was very informative and friendly. I highly recommend her as the issue I come in with is so much better. Thank you Chiara.

Really friendly and professional, always has an appointment when I need it. Really helping with my back problems.

Whilst I was a sceptic of osteopathy Ian had previously worked magic on my back. My new challenge has been an impingement in my shoulder. The NHS will offer me a cortisone injection but as I see it that is designed to mask the issue rather than address the underlying problem and there can be no certainty it will work. Whilst waiting for the injection appointment I therefore decided to try Ian and we are achieving great things together such that I have already restored 90% of my shoulder function and Ian and I are working on the final 10%. I have already decided that the injection won't be required. Brilliant outcome!

I have visited the Welwyn Hatfield practice multiple times over the last few years. Both Helen and Ian are fantastic I have had both acupuncture and Osteopathy to deal with various problems through out the years. I can not thank them or recommend them enough for their help they have given me. The calmness, friendliness of all the staff give the practice a calm and relaxed feel as soon as you enter.

I’ve just been for my first visit for a long-standing shoulder issue and couldn’t be happier with the whole service, from the welcoming waiting area and friendly receptionist to the superb professional and understanding service from Victor. Can’t wait for my follow up appointment and wholeheartedly recommend The Hatfield Practice to anyone with a musculoskeletal issue!

Was in tears today with severe pain in my shoulder, first visit ever for help and Victor manipulated my shoulder pain now gone and me smiling -had nice chat with the lady in reception - am I bad though can't remember her name - unfortunately the dementia is not cured yet.

Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere have had a couple of visits with Victor who is very thorough and I now feel 75% better would recommend without hesitation.

Saw Victor today for pain in my lower back that I have had for 2-3 years. Already seeing huge improvement after just one visit. All staff in the practice were warm and welcoming. Victor was very professional, informative and reassuring.

Chris has been great treating my broken hip. His massage and manipulation bring immediate, lasting relief from pain and muscle tension. The exercise routine he set for me has led to significant improvement and confidence. He has also helped me understand the process of healing, how the structure of bone and soft tissue relate to my specific injury, which is enormously helpful.

Marcella is my Osteopath and she has been absolutely fantastic. She has been able to quickly identify the issue, provided me with exceptional advice and helped me with methods to rectify the problem. Having suffered for some time I was able to walk out of the treatment room with a spring in my step.

Can not recommend enough! Marcella at the Hatfield practice diagnosed an SI joint issue that 3 other osteopaths had failed to spot and treated as solely a glute issue (despite 5 sessions! ) I felt better than I had in 2 months within a couple of days of seeing Marcella, I followed the advice/plan, have significantly improved and finally back to running. Im confident I now have an osteopath that is getting me back to my old self.

Knee problem diagnosed as arthritis by my GP was treated by physiotherapy and I was given a set of exercises that virtually eliminated the pain I was experiencing. Heartily recommended.

I have been having osteopathic treatment by Marcella for some tome now and can thoroughly recommend both her and the practice for their professional, friendly and expert treatment.

I have been under the care of both Ian in Physiotherapy and Helen in Acupuncture. Without their professional knowledge and skills I would be in pain daily. The Practise is clean, professional and very friendly. They heal mind and body, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

The practice looks very clean, professional and friendly. I'm having osteopathy therapy for chronic back problems and it definitely helped me a lot! The osteopath gives helpful advises and exercises to relieve the problems. It is a bit more expensive than where I used to live but it's good value.

Having had a spinal fusion 9 years ago, which means I have 2 rods and 16 screws holding me together, means I am nearly always in some sort of pain, just depends on the scale. Receiving fairly regular treatment over a number of years at The Hatfield Practice gives me some much needed relief from this pain and helps to make my life a deal easier. The staff are all fantastically supportive, from Reception to Therapists and I always feel valued by their attentivenes. I do have numerous other issues to contend with, but I feel I get great value for money. Many thanks to Ian and the whole team. Jann.
