Ramsay Sloss

Like most practitioners I want to help patients achieve a healthy outcome in their treatment and enjoy working with other disciplines such as Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, Dentists and Orthopaedic Surgeons. I was told once by a Physiotherapist who was lecturing on Muscle Activation “We don’t know what we don’t know”. That being true I feel it’s our responsibility as clinicians to ensure that we try and find out what we don’t know so that we can achieve better outcomes for our clients. I believe this means truly that ALL practitioners should look outside their own profession and explore other modalities which would have an impact on their approach to treatment and management.

Expertise

Ramsay has over 40 years of experience in Podiatry, Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Triage and Biomechanics working jointly with many professionals from many disciplines with the aim of achieving as holistic an approach to treatment where necessary. He has particular interest (over 10 years working with Dentists) in co-managing and treating patients with descending biomechanical problems from the Cranio Mandibular system (Head neck and jaw dental occlusion).

Life outside work

My life outside work mainly revolves around physical exercise whether it be still training and competing as a Masters Athlete at International level or walking my 4 English Springer Spaniel dogs and helping my wife with her dog Agility lessons/competitions.

My favourite thing

My favourite thing professionally is seeing results from my treatment interventions and personally from success at International Athletics Competitions.
