Tim Moynihan

Registered Osteopath

I’m Tim Moynihan, I’ve been an Osteopath for over 30 years, having qualified from the British College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1991.

I have worked in North Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire and established Amber Health in 2011. I work across all 3 clinics – Baldock, Ashwell and Melbourn.

I treat a wide range of conditions, mainly focused on the spine and improving its function to relieve pain. I’m also very interested in Sports Injuries and Ergonomics.

Everyone is different even if they have a similar injury and this variety of patients makes my job incredibly interesting and is why I have been practising Osteopathy for so long.

Pain is also very related to mental wellbeing and being able to explain and improve a patient’s condition both physical and mental is very rewarding.

As Osteopaths we also have time for our patients to enable us to fully explain their condition and how it will progress both with our help in clinic and the best advice for care at home.

At the end of the day it’s all about caring.

My father and grandfather who were GP’s and also my colleague, lecturer and friend Jason Pinny.

A variety of sports including rugby, cricket, squash, tennis, golf and skiing, socialising and spending time with my family. I also love the great outdoors.
