# Leeds Osteopathy & Ergonomics
David Annett is a Yorkshire-based osteopath and ergonomics consultant with over 20 years of professional experience. He specialises in treating work-related injuries, sports injuries, and preventing occupational health problems through ergonomic intervention.
The business serves two distinct clientele: corporate organisations seeking to comply with Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Regulations and reduce manual handling risks, and individuals requiring osteopathic treatment for acute or chronic musculoskeletal conditions. His corporate clients benefit from comprehensive workstation assessments, manual handling training, and bespoke ergonomic reviews that directly reduce workplace injury and absence rates.
What sets David apart is his rare combination of credentials. His background includes several years at IDEO, a world-renowned product development consultancy, where he applied user-centred design principles to commercial products—from medical devices to ATMs. This expertise distinguishes him from typical ergonomics consultants. Clinically, he boasts an impressive track record treating Olympic athletes, professional musicians, actors, and aerial performers, demonstrating his ability to manage complex cases requiring both immediate treatment and long-term management strategies.
His approach emphasises pragmatic solutions grounded in common sense rather than theoretical compliance. Client testimonials highlight the tangible impact of his personalised one-to-one assessments compared to generic group training, and his consistent ability to identify and treat problems early, enabling individuals to perform at their potential.
