Cobo Osteopaths

We have Dimi Argyros and Elisabeth Winzenried who are Osteopaths. Dimi works at Cobo most of the time but she also does one session a week at St Martins Health Centre. Elisabeth works at both Cobo and Rohais Health Centres. You are very welcome to see either of them.

 

Dimi Argyros was educated in Australia. After a year of doing a science degree, she transferred to the five year Osteopathy course. She was attracted to this on account of the hands on and holistic approach. After graduating she worked in private practice in Melbourne and also worked as a clinical supervisor at both of the Osteopathic Collages in Melbourne. She has always had a keen interest in paediatric osteopathy and, as an active sports person, the treatment of sports injuries. In order to pursue this further, she undertook a graduate diploma in Paediatric Osteopathy in 1998. She also worked as part of the Australian Paralympics medical team for several years. While involved in this, she went to numerous international events, including the Asian games in Thailand in 1999 and the Sydney Paralympics Games in 2000.

She moved to Guernsey in 2001, and has continued to see patients of all ages. She has also developed a particular interest in the effects of posture and ergonomics on musculoskeletal complaints in both adults and children. She will therefore often suggest exercise and ergonomic changes to help alleviate symptoms and minimise re-aggravation. This all ties in well with the whole Osteopathic approach of trying to recognise and treat the cause of a condition and subsequently helping to alleviate the symptoms.

 

Elisabeth Winzenried was born and brought up in Switzerland. She trained as an Osteopath in France and England and graduated from the European School of Osteopathy in Maidstone, Kent.  After working in Switzerland she moved to Guernsey in September 2005 to work for the Healthcare Group. Elisabeth holds consultations at both the Rohais and Cobo surgeries. She treats patients with various back and joint problems and also uses Cranial Osteopathy, treating babies and children. In her spare time she enjoys cycling, long cliff walks and sailing.
