The clinic originally opened in Devonshire square, Loughborough in 1982. Mr Jamie Butler joined the two existing osteopaths in 1987 working as a remedial and sports masseur, while training to become an osteopath. Jamie qualified as an osteopath in 1992 and subsequently took over the osteopathic clinic as a sole practitioner.
A growing demand for treatment meant that by 1997 the clinic moved to a larger premises on Ashby road in Loughborough, expanding to incorporate associate osteopaths, a team of acupuncturists, and a sports and relaxation massage therapist. The clinic enjoyed great success in these new premises until 2020 when it relocated to its current location at 27 Granby Steet, LE11 3DU, Loughborough, Leicestershire
The beautiful premises that now house the clinic represent the realism of a long term vision in Jamie's mind.
A vision of caring, excellent health care being provided by a dedicated team of professionals in a friendly, relaxed and beautiful clinic setting.

Jamie Butler
- Description
Jamie Butler the principal Osteopath at the Loughborough Osteopathic Clinic qualified as an osteopath in 1992 having worked previously as a sports therapist and remedial masseur since 1987. Over the last 27 years in practice, Jamie has developed a professional, caring, and understanding approach to osteopathic healthcare whilst constantly developing his technical knowledge and ability to provide patients with safe effective relief from their conditions.
Jamie passionately believes in the importance of educating the patient to understand their problems and clear communication regarding of all aspects of their osteopathic treatment. In this way, patients are reassured of the safety and effectiveness of any treatment they may undergo.
In the last 10 years, Jamie has developed a special interest in biomechanics and Gait Analysis. This fascinating field involves looking at the way patients walk/run and move from the ground up. Often patients require inserts or 'orthotics' in their footwear to correct feet rolling in (pronating) or out (supinating). Correcting these problems 'at source' can hugely improve all sorts of pain ranging from foot/ankle to hip, knee and back pain.
Jamie has links to some of the best bio-mechanical orthotics providers in the UK and is able where necessary to refer patients for corrective devices to help realign the vital mechanical balance of their bodies. This, incorporated with advice on core stability and strengthening exercises has resulted in many patients being able to get excellent, long-lasting relief from pain.
