Claire Boulden M.Ost PGCert (Animal Osteopathy)
Claire graduated with a Master’s degree in Osteopathy from the University College of Osteopathy in London. She later completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Animal Osteopathy at the Osteopathic Centre for Animals in Wantage, Oxford.
With experience treating a wide range of injuries and musculoskeletal conditions, Claire developed her clinical and palpation skills during her undergraduate training, including time spent at the Royal Free Hospital in London. There, she worked alongside the NHS team to support patients living with chronic pain—an experience that continues to shape her compassionate, patient-centred approach.
Claire enjoys treating patients of all ages and is passionate about promoting holistic well-being—addressing both physical and mental health. Her approach is hands-on and tailored to each individual, drawing on a range of techniques. She also integrates acupuncture and dry needling when appropriate to support recovery and relieve pain.
Outside of her osteopathic work, Claire is a devoted animal lover. She spends her free time with her family, her Labradors, and her horse. She regularly shows her dogs and was placed 1st in her class at Crufts in 2025—a proud achievement. Claire is also a Kennel Club JEP Level 2 qualified judge for Labradors.
