Meet Angus

Angus graduated from Oxford Brookes University with a BSc (Hons) in Osteopathy and is registered with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC).

He has developed a particular interest in the relationship between movement, biomechanics and injury, particularly in active people and runners.

Alongside osteopathy, Angus has experience in sports injury management, exercise rehabilitation and running analysis, allowing him to look beyond the painful area and consider how movement, training and biomechanics may be contributing to a problem.

His approach is practical and patient-focused: understand what is causing the problem, treat where appropriate, and give you the tools to build strength, movement and confidence.

​

Osteopathy in Crosby. Liverpool

Angus provides osteopathic assessment and treatment at Crosby Chiropractic in Waterloo, Liverpool.

Osteopathy can be used to assess and manage a wide range of musculoskeletal problems, including pain, stiffness and movement difficulties affecting the back, neck, shoulders, hips, knees and other areas of the body.

Angus's approach combines osteopathic techniques with exercise and rehabilitation where appropriate.

The aim isn't simply to treat the painful area. Angus looks at the wider picture, including your movement, lifestyle, activity levels, previous injuries and what you want to get back to doing.

Running analysis in Crosby

Run better, move better and stay active.

Angus has a particular interest in running and biomechanics and provides running and gait analysis for runners experiencing pain, recurring injuries or difficulties with their running technique.

Running injuries can be frustrating, particularly when they keep returning despite rest or treatment.

A running analysis can help assess how you move while running and identify movement patterns that may be contributing to symptoms or affecting your running efficiency.

Assessment may consider factors such as:

• Running technique

• Gait and movement patterns

• Lower-limb mechanics

• Cadence and stride

• Strength and control

• Previous injuries

• Training habits

• Running-related pain

The findings can then be used alongside treatment, rehabilitation and practical running advice.

Whether you're training for your first 5K, preparing for a marathon or simply want to run without recurring pain, Angus can tailor the assessment to your individual goals.
