James Birkett
Co-Founder
James Birkett, who joined Rebalance Clinic in 2017 as an associate, has been an integral part of the team ever since. In 2021, James became one of the clinic’s directors, further solidifying his role as a key player in the clinic’s ongoing success and growth. Prior to his work at Rebalance Clinic, James studied medicine after leaving school, which gave him a solid foundation in healthcare. However, his path took a different turn when he transitioned into social care, working in mental health and homelessness services.
It was during his time working with the homeless that James suffered an injury to his back. Facing the option of taking strong painkillers for weeks, he was instead introduced to the idea of osteopathy by his doctor. After experiencing significant improvement after just a few visits, James became inspired by the effectiveness of osteopathy and decided to retrain as an osteopath himself. This pivotal moment led him to become not only a practitioner of osteopathy but someone who deeply values the power of non-invasive, holistic treatments.
James’s unique background in both traditional medicine and osteopathy gives him a well-rounded perspective on healthcare. He brings this dual knowledge to his practice, which he finds incredibly beneficial in treating patients with a variety of health concerns. His experience in both the medical and osteopathic fields enables him to approach treatment from a broad and informed perspective, ensuring that each patient receives the best possible care tailored to their needs.
Together, Andrew and James have created a clinic that stands at the forefront of osteopathic care, combining their extensive knowledge, experience, and passion for helping people improve their physical health. Their dedication to patient care and the clinic’s holistic approach to healing has earned Rebalance Clinic a reputation as a trusted resource for those seeking effective, natural treatments for a range of musculoskeletal conditions. Their shared vision and commitment to excellence continue to drive the clinic’s growth and success, making it a go-to destination for performers, sports professionals and everyday individuals to improve their quality of life and prevent future symptoms and injuries.
