Bonjour
Welcome to One Health Osteopathy.
Pierre Antoye specialises in helping patients with difficult situations who aren’t getting better very easily - to get back on track.
He helps people to take charge of their own healing by kicking off the process and then making sure you have the tools to make it sustainable. He takes the time to explain and help you understand the root of the problem, why it’s there and how to solve it. He tries to make difficult concepts easy to understand, without using lots of medical jargon.
Background
Pierre was born and grew up in the countryside near Lyon, France. He originally came to England to train and study, but liked it so much that he decided to stay!! He graduated from the European School of Osteopathy, Maidstone in 2006 www.eso.ac.uk and is a fully qualified registered Osteopath (No:6298) and is GDPR compliant.
Today, Pierre owns and runs the Orchard Clinic www.orchardclinic.co.uk , but divides his time between two busy practices including; Thrapston and Northampton to ensure he can treat his patients across the county.
Experience
Pierre treats many conditions presented to the clinics from all ages, activities and professions (e.g. manual workers, sports people, adolescents, office workers and active older people to name a few), staying true to the osteopathic motto: “To keep you younger for longer”.
He has also been treating babies, children and pregnant mums since joining the university clinic in 2006 with great success. Working with Jas Jones (Love2Latch - Tongue Tie Practitioner, Registered Midwife and Supervisor of Midwives) has been a great privilege, in particular helping little ones following a Tongue Tie division (tongue tie).
Working with animals as well as humans has always been a dream for him. After completing a year and half apprenticeship with Christophe Becquereau, he is now dedicating a third of his time to helping dogs and horses.
His approach combines various tools from very gentle to more dynamic structural techniques depending on the needs of the patient. For example, he would use cranial osteopathy for little ones and pregnant mothers, but a more dynamic treatment for a healthy but injured rugby player. He is pleased to promote an analytical approach to treatment, systematically checking the different parts of the body that are painful and tracing the problem back to where it originated, avoiding being focused solely on the area of pain.
Pierre ensures that all his patients receive a factual yet simple explanation of their situation, his assessment of the cause and an honest estimation of how long recovery is likely to take. He strongly believes in team work and cooperating with other health professionals such as GP’s and personal trainers.
