Meeting Jose is an absolute pleasure, every time I see him, his diagnosis is and treatment are 100% right, my last appointment, my main sport/hobby is bouldering, which is a style of rock climbing, very powerful and dynamic type of movement and I’ve had a shoulder impingement for over 6 months, I had sought other types of treatment all to no avail, one visit/assesment to see Jose with a bit of shoulder realignment and some follow up exercises, he has got me back climbing within days of seeing him. If in any doubt about what Osteopaths can do for you, please take the time to reach out to Jose and you’ll NEVER go to another ‘therapist’ again. He also spotted that I had a bulging disc on my L2 when I seen him about lower stiffness around my hips/lower back, all clinging related.
A brilliant osteopath in a great location! I went to José at Central Manchester Osteopathy & Sports Therapy during a really tough period experiencing daily headaches, brain fog and recurring pins and needles in my left arm. After countless GP appointments, A&E visits, long waiting lists and scans I was getting increasingly frustrated with my symptoms and was concerned they would never improve. I was apprehensive about visiting an Osteopath but felt I had nothing to lose. José gave me a thorough consultation where he listened intently and took all different aspects of my lifestyle into consideration before working with me at his surgery as well as advising me on what I could do in my own time to relieve the pain I was experiencing. My symptoms drastically improved within just a week and got better and better as time went on. He really prioritised longevity and was very keen to get me to a point where I can manage my self without his assistance. Almost two years later and visiting him on the off-chance that day is easily one of the best decisions I've made. I've recommended him to multiple friends and family members and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone else who's struggling with any type of pain or discomfort.
I can’t recommend Jose highly enough. He has now fixed my back on three separate occasions, and every time the results have been outstanding. What really sets him apart is how carefully he tailors each treatment — he doesn’t just treat the immediate pain, he builds a long-term plan to strengthen and maintain spinal health . He explains everything clearly, makes you feel at ease, and combines hands-on treatment with practical exercises that actually work. Professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in his patients’ wellbeing — easily the best osteopath I’ve worked with. If you’re dealing with back pain or sciatica, you’ll be in excellent hands.
Have been to to Jose on an off for a few years now! has fixed everything from back pain, foot injury to tennis elbow!!! highly recommended!
So happy I found Jose!!! Somone recommended me to Jose as I had completed a half Marathon and was in lots of pain in my legs and was searching for a sports massage!! The service was fantastic and couldn't ask for anything more!! Freindly, professional and I will 100% be back very soon!! His knowledge is impeccable 👌 Thanks Jose!! I feel so good right now!!
Jose has been amazing over the years! So kind and respectful I have always felt safe and in good hands and he has done wonders with my different kinds of pains over the years. I have asthma and often struggle with back pains and muscle or neck stiffness he has helped me feel good and better at every visits. I always tell him he has magic hands! I have also recommended Jose over the years to friends and colleagues they have always praised this work! Thank you Jose for all that you do and for your passion for helping others! 🙂
I have been seeing Jose for a few weeks now due to an ear issue. He is phenomenal and is helping with my healing on a weekly basis. I always feel so much more relaxed after my visit. I love the cranial work he does. Truly skilled hands.
I have been seeing Jose on and off for many years for lower back pain which needs occasional tweaking. My partner also sees him at least once a month for a chronic long term condition. Jose has always been friendly and approachable. He is very knowledgeable and skilled in his profession. We cannot rate him highly enough and have recommended him to friends and family.
I have been to Jose for about 7 session now. After many years of working highly laborious jobs including kitchen portering, being bent over a sink for 12 plus hours a day, bad posture, and being far too greedy with plates in the gym. Jose has helped me beyond what I thought was possible. I have been to 14 different Physiotherapists, Chiropractors and Osteopaths. All of whom have brought relief and helped, however I feel that Jose has given me the key to fixing myself. On my first visit he thoroughly assessed me and gave me an adjustment which was highly detailed and precise. He asked me to get a piece of equipment to help with a particular exercise for my rehabilitation. I procrastinated getting the piece of equipment due to finances at the time. I recently purchased the relatively cheap item (under £20) and I have started to recover from a situation, in which to be perfectly honest I felt was a lost cause. Jose has a wealth of knowledge in his profession, and combined with his highly professional yet friendly manner I think anyone would be highly fortunate to have him as their Osteopath. I know I have found mine. In a nutshell, if you having a musculoskeletal problem and are looking for help, don't delay, go see Jose.
I can't recommend Jose enough. I've been going to him for years and every time he provides the highest standard of care and treatment. My body feels much better and so much more relaxed when i leave the appointment. There are many Osteopaths in Manchester but I've not met one that is more professional, compassionate, knowledgeable and caring than Jose. Highly recommend !
