How much does an appointment at Fishponds Practice cost?

An initial consultation and treatment at Fishponds Practice is £60, and a follow-up appointment is £55. The practice also states that it never charges in advance for a series of appointments, since some of those appointments may not be necessary.

Fees at a glance

These are the fees the practice lists on its website. The same page does not break down prices by practitioner or treatment type, so if you are booking chiropody, holistic massage or ear wax removal rather than osteopathy, confirm the cost when you call.

What the fee covers and how payment works

The £60 initial fee covers both the consultation and the treatment in one appointment, rather than charging separately for an assessment before any care begins. Follow-ups are charged at the lower £55 rate.

The practice's stated approach is to treat each patient as an individual and not to sell blocks of appointments upfront. That means you are not asked to pay for a course of sessions before you have been assessed, and you should only be booked in for further appointments that are actually needed.

Practical points before you book

• Phone number: 0117 949 1290 — this stays the same through the practice's rename.
• Address: 834 Fishponds Road, Bristol BS16 3XA.
• Name change: the practice is becoming the Chestnut Practice, with Nina Hurrell as Director. The existing osteopaths (Martyn, Gaby, Paddy and Elly) continue treating patients as before, and chiropody with Hilary and Sadie and holistic massage with Caroline also continue. Paddy will additionally offer ear wax removal.
• Records: from 1 November 2026 patient records transfer securely to The Chestnut Practice, which becomes the data controller. If you would prefer your records not to transfer, the practice asks you to tell them by 23 October.
• Contact from November: a new website is due to launch, and the new email address will be [email protected].

Is the price likely to change?

The website presents the £60 and £55 fees as current and does not mention an increase tied to the rename. Because the practice says a new website with full details is launching in November, check the fee when you book rather than relying on this page alone — especially if your appointment falls after the changeover.
