She graduated from the British School of Osteopathy (now University College of Osteopathy) in 2010 and has gained experience treating a wide range of patients, from babies to the elderly. Her calm and warm presence has made her a popular therapist for those seeking relief from pain and the skills and confidence to improve their general wellbeing and function.
Francesca uses hands on Structural, Dry Needling and Cranial techniques and strongly believes that empowering her patients to understand and appropriately manage their pain and injuries is the best way to get better. She has a keen interest in regulating the part of the nervous system responsible for increased stress response, which can be especially helpful for unsettled babies.

In her free time, Francesca enjoys strength training, running, hiking and the occasional round of golf.
Dorota Jedryszka
Osteopath
Dorota brings over 20 years of experience as a nurse together with a deep passion for osteopathy, which she discovered through her own journey as a patient. Experiencing the benefits of cranial osteopathy inspired her to retrain as an osteopath and dedicate her work to supporting people’s health and wellbeing.
Having worked as a nurse initially in her native country Poland, and then in London, Dorota completed a four-year integrated Masters course in Osteopathic Medicine graduating from The European School of Osteopathy in Kent in 2018.
Her approach is gentle, patient-centred, and tailored to each individual. Whilst she uses her structural skills and medical acupuncture she has a particular interest in cranial osteopathy – a subtle yet powerful therapy that is especially suitable for treatment of babies, pregnant women, older adults, and anyone seeking a safe, restorative treatment. She is currently undertaking further post graduate courses in the cranial field at the Sutherland Cranial College of Osteopathy with particular focus on Pediatrics.
Dorota works with patients of all ages, always aiming to help restore balance, reduce pain, and support the body’s natural ability to heal.
Rosie Clements
Osteopath
Rosie is a graduate from Swansea University with a Masters degree in osteopathy. She enjoys being able to treat and help all varieties of different people and musculoskeletal presentations, as well as getting to know each patient’s unique complaint and witnessing improvement in both physical and mental health and wellbeing.
She has a great interest in sports – growing up as an elite gymnast gave her personal experience and a unique understanding of sports-related injuries. This is what inspired her to train as an osteopath and in her spare time she loves to keep doing gymnastics after stopping before university.
Rosie grew up in Somerset and is very excited to be joining the team at Oldfield Osteopathic Clinic and to be helping people improve their quality of life.
Andrew Kingsley
Acupuncture
Andrew treats a broad range of conditions introducing other therapies to help with specific conditions, including Tui Na acupressure for pain and discomfort, hypnotherapy for sleep and anxiety and EFT (Emotional Freedom technique) for trauma and negative patterns. He is keen to empower patients within the treatment process and to be aware of the choices they can make for themselves in terms of good health and well-being.
As well as his acupuncture practice Andrew also runs workshops, meditation classes and sound baths at The Soul Spa in the centre of Bath. He also has a private practice on Bloomfield Road, Bath.
Taryn Stevenson
Sports & Remedial Massage Therapist
Although Taryn loved her job as an Account Director selling Materials handling equipment, the 1000 miles per week started taking a toll on her body. So, with a sore back and tight shoulders and frustrations of having ear infections due to so much swimming, she finally discovered the benefit of alternative therapies and has not looked back since.
Her love of the alternative therapies, and the benefits of them, prompted a career change to a sports massage therapist. Being able to help and support clients with body health and well-being through sports massage is what Taryn is about. Taryn has enjoyed working with Bath Rugby Team and qualified at Bath University. She is thrilled to be working with the team at Oldfield Osteopathic Clinic.
