Marek Kolarik

Marek graduated as an Osteopath from UCO in London. Prior to his
Osteopathic qualification, he worked as a massage therapist focusing on
sport injuries and general musculoskeletal complaints. Marek has worked
in London, the Peak District and Slovakia where he had opportunity to
expand his knowledge of treatment modalities working with a
diverse population.

Marek’s treatment approach is mostly derived from structural
osteopathy, alongside using other direct techniques such as massage,
dry needling, shockwave therapy, muscle stretching and rehabilitation
exercises. He believes that providing patients with hands-on care and advice, that is
accustomed to their personal lifestyle, is generally the key to successful
recovery from pain and restriction. He understands that
helping someone to improve their health and get out of pain, it is fundamental for the patient and therapist to work together.

Marek’s journey to Osteopathy was chiefly influenced by overcoming his
own sport injuries, which consequently drives his interest as an osteopath. He is a keen runner, hiker and water sports enthusiast.
