# Cookham Osteopathy

Cookham Osteopathy, located in Maidenhead, offers osteopathic care grounded in the founding principle that health—not disease—should be the focus of treatment. The practice takes a holistic approach to wellbeing, recognising that mind, body, lifestyle and mental attitude are interconnected factors affecting overall health.

The clinic operates **The Pinder Room**, a specialised division dedicated to babies, children and families. This focus reflects a genuine expertise in paediatric care, with many mothers seeking treatment for pregnancy-related issues, post-natal recovery and childhood conditions. However, the practice welcomes all family members seeking osteopathic support.

What sets Cookham Osteopathy apart is the depth of specialist training and credentials. Jo Piercey, the practice owner, holds a BSc in Osteopathy, an MSc in Paediatric Osteopathy and is a registered Cranial-Sacral Paediatric Specialist. She also works as a Paramana Doula, bringing comprehensive understanding of women's health throughout pregnancy and beyond. This multi-disciplinary background means clients receive care informed by both osteopathic principles and birth-related expertise.

The practice philosophy emphasises non-invasive, sympathetic treatment that supports the body's own healing capacity rather than simply treating symptoms. Jo remains actively practising despite deregistration, allowing her to focus entirely on her specialist areas of cranial-sacral and paediatric work.
