Why the Shore comes to us

Why North Shore patients choose our Glenfield osteopaths

Look at what North Shore patients actually search for and it is remarkably consistent: back pain, shoulder pain, and necks that have seized up. Desk work, the commute over the bridge, and weekend sport account for most of it.

Our Glenfield clinic has been treating exactly that since 2012. Six registered osteopaths, all ACC registered, working alongside a physio, an acupuncturist and massage therapists in the same building — so if your problem needs a different pair of hands, the referral happens down the corridor.

Osteopathy North Shore runs out of one building. Glenfield is a multidisciplinary clinic: osteopathy sits alongside physio, acupuncture, massage , functional medicine and nutrition, so your practitioners can collaborate rather than work blind. We are ACC registered with no GP referral needed, and we accept Southern Cross Easy-Claim and Afterpay.

What we treat

Conditions osteopathy North Shore treats at our Glenfield clinic

What North Shore patients most often book an osteopath for at Glenfield. Each links through to more detail.

Where it hurts

Back pain and shoulder pain — what North Shore osteopaths see most

Two complaints account for most of what walks through the door at Glenfield. Here is how an osteopath approaches each, and when another discipline in the building suits you better.

Osteopathy for back pain

Lower back pain that flares with sitting, lifting or a long drive is the single most common reason people book. We assess the hips, pelvis and mid-back as well as the sore segment, because the stiff joint above or below is usually part of the story. More on back pain.

Osteopathy for shoulder and neck pain

Shoulder pain that wakes you at night, restricts reaching overhead or comes with a stiff neck. Treatment covers the shoulder blade, ribs and neck, not just the joint itself. More on neck pain.

Hips, knees and arthritic joints

Osteopathy will not reverse arthritis, but improving how the joints above and below move often takes enough load off the painful one to matter. More on joint pain.

Injuries with an ACC claim

If your pain started with an accident, we lodge the ACC claim at your first appointment — no GP visit needed first.

How we work

How our Glenfield osteopaths assess back and shoulder pain

A shoulder that will not settle is often a thoracic spine that has stopped rotating. A lower back that keeps going is often a hip that has stopped extending. Treating only where it hurts is why problems come back.

So the assessment covers how you move as a whole, then treatment combines soft tissue work, joint articulation and gentle manipulation — always explained before it happens, and adjusted to what you are comfortable with.

  • Full movement assessment, not just the painful area
  • Hands-on treatment at the first appointment
  • Honest estimate of how many visits you need
  • Internal referral if another discipline suits better

What our North Shore patients say

Common questions

Osteopath North Shore — your questions answered

Anything else? Call 09 444 3231.

Where is your North Shore osteopathy clinic?
Unit 2, 1 View Road, Glenfield, Auckland 0627, with free on-site parking and wheelchair access. We are minutes from SH1 and central to Birkenhead, Northcote, Takapuna, Albany, Browns Bay and Devonport.
How long is an osteopathy appointment at Glenfield?
First appointments run 45 to 60 minutes, depending on which osteopath you see. Follow-up appointments are often shorter. The length is shown against each practitioner when you book online, so you know before you arrive.
Do I need a referral to see an osteopath on the North Shore?
No — walk-in bookings are the norm. That includes ACC injuries: we handle the claim paperwork here at Glenfield while you are in the room, so there is nothing to arrange beforehand and no waiting on a letter.
How much does an osteopath cost on the North Shore?
A standard osteopathy appointment at our Glenfield clinic is $65 with ACC or $110 private, and a 60-minute extended appointment is $130 with ACC. There is no GP referral needed for ACC, and Southern Cross members can use Easy-Claim. Full details are on our prices page.
What are your opening hours at Glenfield?
We are open six days a week. Monday to Thursday 7:00am to 7:00pm, Friday 7:00am to 6:00pm, and Saturday 10:00am to 5:00pm (Saturdays are massage only, so osteopathy runs Monday to Friday). The 7am starts and the evening slots are there so treatment fits around work rather than costing you half a day, and they book out first.
How many osteopaths do you have at Glenfield?
Six OCNZ-registered osteopaths practise here, with different special interests across sport, pregnancy, chronic pain and older adults. If you are not sure who to book, call 09 444 3231 and we will match you.
Osteopath or physio for back pain?
For a back that keeps flaring without an obvious injury, start with an osteopath — the assessment covers hips, pelvis and mid-back, which is usually where the driver sits. If your back went during a specific lift or game, and you want structured strengthening to get back to it, physiotherapy is the better first call. Both are here at Glenfield, both are ACC registered, and our osteopaths and physiotherapist refer between each other rather than competing.
Does treatment hurt?
It should not. Some techniques create brief discomfort working through tight tissue, and mild achiness for a day afterwards is normal. Everything is explained before it happens and you can stop at any point.
