Our Osteopath
Clarissa McManus
Osteopath & Clinic Founder
Clarissa is a dedicated osteopath and the founder of Willow Osteopathy and Health. With a focus on natural healing methods, she is committed to providing personalised care to enhance her patients' well-being and vitality.​​ Her expertise and compassionate approach empower clients to make positive changes for their overall wellness.
​
She is an experienced osteopath with 18 years of clinical experience across private practice, the NHS, and in education, where she has also assisted in lecturing at the European School of Osteopathy (ESO). Clarissa first completed a BSc in Biological Sciences at King’s College London before going on to achieve her BSc and DO in Osteopathy at the ESO in 2007.
​
Her journey into osteopathy began as a teenager. After witnessing the gentle treatment of a baby—and seeing how such light touch could have a profound, calming and healing effect—she felt inspired to learn more. That moment sparked a passion that has shaped her career ever since.
​​
She enjoys treating patients of all ages, including babies, pregnant patients, older adults, and anyone looking to move with greater comfort and ease. Clarissa practices a holistic, patient-centred approach, blending functional, structural and cranial osteopathic techniques to tailor each treatment to the individual.
Known for her calm, thoughtful manner, Clarissa takes time to understand each person’s unique symptom presentation, helping patients feel listened to, supported, and empowered in their wellbeing.
