About Us

The Camford Clinic was started in Alton in 2006 , offering pain management, sports injury, and rehabilitation treatments with the goal of helping relieve, repair and return to activity as quickly as possible.

We have worked with national and international athletes, university sports teams, military personnel, and recreational sportspeople, as well as families and older people. If you’ve got a body, we can help.

Tim Austen is the founder and principle practitioner at The Camford Clinic.

They first started practicing in 2000 whilst competing as an age group triathlete, before training and practicing as an Osteopath, graduating in 2009. They subsequently trained as a Physician Associate and worked in a specialist NHS rehabiliation centre for almost a decade.
