What it costs
Every price for every service, in one place. No consultation fee on top, no assessment you have to pay for separately, and no charge for the phone call before you decide.
Osteopathy in Barnes costs £70 to £89 a session
An initial osteopathy consultation at & Wellness is £89 for 45 minutes, and includes assessment, diagnosis and hands-on treatment in the same visit. Follow-up appointments are £70 for 30 minutes or £89 for 45. Sports massage runs from £60 for 45 minutes to £110 for 90. Western medical acupuncture and dry needling is £70 for a 30-minute session. Home visits in Barnes are £150.
Most patients with a straightforward problem are seen two to five times, so a typical course of treatment comes to somewhere between £160 and £430 in total. Henry gives you an honest estimate at the end of the first appointment, before you commit to anything beyond it.
Every appointment, every price
Prices are per appointment and include everything in it — there is no separate charge for the initial assessment, for the treatment that follows it, or for the exercise plan you leave with.
Osteopathy
Every appointment is one-to-one with Henry, start to finish. Assessment and hands-on treatment happen in the same visit, so you are treated on the day you first come in rather than booked back for it.
- Initial consultation and treatmentFull case history, physical and neurological examination, explanation of the findings, hands-on treatment, and a care plan with home exercises.45 minutes£89
- Follow-up treatmentThe longer follow-up, for complex or multi-area problems and for anyone who wants rehab work included in the session.45 minutes£89
- Follow-up treatmentThe standard follow-up once a diagnosis is established and treatment is focused on one area.30 minutes£70
Sports and remedial massage
Priced by time rather than by area, so a 60-minute session can cover the back, shoulders and legs without being three separate bookings.
- Sports massageOne region — typically back and shoulders, or hips and legs.45 minutes£60
- Sports massageTwo regions, or one region worked thoroughly with rehab advice.60 minutes£80
- Sports massageFull-body work, or a deep session before or after an event.90 minutes£110
Western medical acupuncture and dry needling
Western medical acupuncture and dry needling only. The clinic does not offer traditional Chinese acupuncture. Most patients have needling as part of an osteopathy session rather than on its own.
- Initial acupuncture or dry needling appointmentCase history and screening before any needling, then treatment.45 minutes£89
- Acupuncture or dry needlingFollow-up needling session, on its own or added to ongoing osteopathic care.30 minutes£70
Home visits

Why an osteopathy appointment costs what it does
The number that matters is not the hourly rate, it is what happens inside the hour. Every appointment at & Wellness is one-to-one with Henry from start to finish. There is no assistant taking the history, no handover halfway through, and no double-booking that has him moving between two treatment rooms — which is how a cheaper headline price is usually made to work.
The initial appointment is the one people compare, so it is worth being clear about what is inside it: a full case history, a physical and neurological examination, an explanation of what he has found and what is causing it, hands-on treatment on the same day, and a written plan of what to do between now and the next session. Some clinics charge separately for the assessment and the treatment. This one does not — £89 is the whole visit.
It also buys a regulated practitioner. Henry is registered with the General Osteopathic Council, registration number 12075, which is a public register you can search in about ten seconds. Registration requires a four-year masters degree, indemnity insurance, and continuing professional development every year. Anyone can call themselves a massage therapist; only a registered practitioner may call themselves an osteopath.
And it buys time you are not charged for. The free ten-minute phone call before you book is genuinely free, and it exists so that people whose problem is not an osteopathic one find that out before they pay for an appointment rather than afterwards.
Three realistic examples
The single most common question is not what one session costs, it is what the whole thing costs. These are ordinary patterns at this clinic, not best cases.
An acute problem — around £160
A recent episode of back pain, no complicating history. Initial appointment at £89, one 30-minute follow-up at £70. Two visits, resolved, with exercises to stop it recurring.
A recurring problem — around £299
Long-standing neck and shoulder tension from desk work. Initial appointment at £89, then three 30-minute follow-ups at £70 each, spaced further apart as it settles.
A complex or chronic problem — around £430
Sciatica with a disc component, or a problem several years old. Initial appointment at £89, then a mix of 30- and 45-minute follow-ups over six to eight weeks. Pre-paid blocks bring the per-session cost down at this length.
Please note These are illustrations, not quotes. What you actually need depends on the diagnosis, and Henry will tell you his estimate after the first appointment rather than before it.
Insurance, packages and cancellations
Private health insurance
& Wellness is recognised by most major UK health insurers. Check your policy before booking and tell Henry when you make the appointment, because the process differs by insurer: some settle directly with the clinic, others ask you to pay and claim it back, and several require a GP referral before osteopathy is covered even though osteopathy itself needs no referral.
If you are not sure whether you are covered, your insurer's member portal will list osteopathy under musculoskeletal or physical therapy benefits, usually with an annual session limit.
Pre-paid blocks
Blocks of four, six or ten return treatments are available where a longer course of care is genuinely the right plan — they bring a 30-minute follow-up down from £70 to as little as £55. They are not the default and Henry will not sell you one at the first appointment, because at that point neither of you knows how many sessions you need.
Blocks cover osteopathy and acupuncture interchangeably, and are transferable within a household. Sports massage blocks are five sessions at whichever length you choose.
Cancellations
We ask for at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel or move an appointment. Later than that and a cancellation fee may apply, because the slot generally cannot be filled. Emergencies happen — get in touch and we will work with you. The full terms are in the terms and conditions.
Concessions
There is no published student or over-65 rate, but if cost is the thing standing between you and treatment, say so on the phone. It is a small independent clinic and that conversation is a short one.
Prices on this page are the standard published rates. Introductory and seasonal offers are shown in the online booking system, which is always the current position — if the two ever disagree, the booking system is right.
Questions people ask about price
No. The initial 45-minute appointment is £89, which is the same as a 45-minute follow-up. Many clinics charge a premium for the first visit because the assessment is billed on top of the treatment. Here the assessment, the diagnosis, the treatment and the exercise plan are all inside the one appointment fee.
What does change after the first visit is the length. Most follow-ups are 30 minutes at £70, because the history-taking and examination are already done.
No. One fee covers the whole visit. You are examined, given a diagnosis, treated by hand, and sent away with a plan, all within the same appointment and the same price.
This is worth checking when you compare clinics: a headline ‘initial consultation’ price at another practice sometimes covers assessment only, with treatment starting — and being charged — at a second appointment.
No. The 10-minute phone consultation is free and carries no obligation to book. It exists so that anyone whose problem is not suited to osteopathy finds that out before they pay for an appointment.

They sit in the normal range for SW London. Osteopathy across Barnes, Putney, Richmond and Fulham generally runs between £60 and £120 a session, with central London consistently higher.
The more useful comparison is what a fee includes rather than the number itself: whether the first appointment includes treatment or only assessment, whether the practitioner is with you for the whole session, and how long the appointments actually are. A 30-minute session at £60 is not cheaper than a 45-minute session at £89.
No. Where dry needling is part of the treatment plan, it is done within your osteopathy appointment at no extra cost. It is only priced separately when you book acupuncture as a treatment in its own right, at £70 for a 30-minute session.
A home visit is £150 for a 100-minute appointment covering osteopathy, acupuncture or rehab. The longer slot and the higher fee both account for travel and setting up the couch.
Home visits cover Barnes and the immediately surrounding streets. If you are outside SW13, check with Henry before booking rather than after.
Still not sure it's worth it?
Have the free 10-minute call first. Henry will tell you honestly whether osteopathy is likely to help, and if it isn't, who you should be seeing instead.
