Owner & Principal
Rachel Phillimore D.O grew up in Clapton near Crewkerne. Having worked with disabled children, the elderly and with psycho-geriatric patients in care homes and hospitals for 5 years prior to training in Osteopathy, her drive is to serve the local community. She graduated in 1991 and began working above the independent health food shop in Holyrood street, before moving to the newly opened Tawstock where she spent an enjoyable 7.5 years working alongside the medical staff. She established the first purpose built clinic in Chard in 2002 and has since moved the centre to its present central site in 2013. She loves working with the team of Osteopaths and Natural Therapists to provide all round natural care that is complementary to the NHS.
The founder of the ‘Friends of Orchard Osteopathy’. Rachel is keen to make Osteopathy available to all regardless of financial status. Over £1,500 has been raised to date to help those unable to afford Osteopathy through hardship, and is in the process of establishing a referral scheme by which it may be accessed by those in need.
