About

Hastings Osteopath Diego Bertoldo
Background & Training
Diego holds a Master of Osteopathy degree from the British School of Osteopathy and has completed a two-year postgraduate professional programme with the Institute of Classical Osteopathy. This advanced training has strengthened his clinical understanding and refined his approach to delivering high-quality, patient-centred care.
Experience & Areas of Interest
Diego moved to Hastings in early 2020 and established Viva Movement at The Wellington Centre. Since settling in the area, he and his wife have started a family, which has inspired a special interest in supporting patients through pregnancy-related aches and pains, as well as the common strains and injuries that often accompany new parenthood.
Prior to relocating to Hastings, Diego spent several years working in osteopathy clinics across London. This experience exposed him to a wide variety of conditions—from sports injuries to long-standing musculoskeletal issues—giving him a broad and confident skill set to draw upon in his current practice.
Diego is committed to continually developing his skills and knowledge to deliver high-quality care in Hastings. He is passionate about osteopathy and healthcare, and takes pride in helping patients feel better, move better, and return to their best.
His additional training includes cranial osteopathy, dry needling, and classical osteopathy, allowing him to tailor treatment to each patient’s individual needs.
Beyond his clinical work, Diego maintains an active lifestyle, enjoying yoga, functional training, running, cycling, and swimming. His calm, caring, and attentive approach helps him build strong relationships with patients and support them in achieving their health goals.

EXCELLENT Based on 79 reviews Posted on Google Jean PiperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My treatment helped me understand the reason for my pain. Comforted me and helped relieve the pain. So kind and considerate.Posted on Google Sadia TisaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am taking treatments from Diego since 2019 when he used to work in London for my sciatica pain. His treatments worked like a magic. He always knows the exact problem and treat according to the need. Over the time I suffered from more muscle aches. I am still consulting and taking treatments from him regularly. His clinic is in hasting now and I drive 2 hours from london to hasting to take treatment from Diego just because he is an excellent osteopath and I feel better after every treatment. So it’s clear how much I am satisfied and believe in his treatments. There are thousands osteopaths in london, among them I tried many and I felt like its just waste of time and money. Diego is well experienced osteopath and I believe no one will be disappointed with his treatment. His clinic is nice, clean and accessible. He is very professional and I highly recommend Diego.Posted on Google Annabelle Haberkorn-GillTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Diego at Viva Movement, I have been seeing him for the past few years both for flare-ups of existing conditions and also for regular maintenance treatments. I have worked with many osteopaths over the years but he is by far the best: attentive, thorough, good at adapting to what your needs are, and giving aftercare advice. I have had great lasting results from lower back pain and nerve impingements in the arm. Effective treatments by a great osteopath!Posted on Google Paul BroughtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very friendly, Professional and knowledgeable, I would highly recommend to anyone 🙂.Posted on Google Alison HooperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Diego at Viva was recommended to me by two friends - one of 55 and one of 90 - and they were absolutely right. He’s brilliant, whatever your age. I’m 76 and was worried my old arthritic bones might be too fragile for osteopathy. But Diego’s gentle treatment works. My backache’s gone in three sessions. He’s also given me exercises to look after my back and strengthen my knees now that I’ve signed off. But the great thing is I know where to go if my bones start playing up again. Trust me, Diego’s the best!Posted on Google Karina JasinskaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm very happy. Diego helped me with my back pain. Feel much better.Posted on Google Marius DontuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service and highly professional team! I was really impressed by their attention to detail and the clear explanations provided throughout the treatment. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients’ wellbeing. I felt a big improvement even after the first session. I highly recommend Viva Movement Osteopathy Clinic to anyone looking for quality care and dedicated professionals.Posted on Google Francesca BrookTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Following surgery for a complex ankle fracture, I was recommended to book an appointment with Viva Movement. I had 4 appointments with Diego who, using a mix of Osteopathy and Accupuncture, both restored some movement and reduced stiffness in the soft tissues of the foot and leg. This has had a noticeable impact on my mobility and confidence. I would highly recommend Diego who is both a hugely knowledgable and highly skilled practitioner.Posted on Google Paul LawrenceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you're looking for a truly life-changing osteopathy experience, VivaMovement is the place to go. From the moment you step into the clinic, you're welcomed with warmth and professionalism that instantly puts you at ease. Diego, the heart and soul behind VivaMovement, is not just an expert in his field—he genuinely cares about your well-being. I had been struggling with persistent back pain for months, and after just a few sessions with Diego, I felt a remarkable difference. He takes the time to listen, assess, and tailor each session to your specific needs. What sets him apart is his holistic approach—not only does he provide hands-on treatment, but he also equips you with exercises and advice to keep you feeling your best long after you leave the clinic. The level of dedication and knowledge at VivaMovement is unmatched. Diego’s passion for what he does shines through in every session, and his ability to pinpoint the root of the problem (sometimes even before you do!) is truly impressive. If you’re in Hastings and need an osteopath, I cannot recommend VivaMovement enough. It's more than just a clinic—it's a place of real healing. Now, I make it a point to visit once a month to keep my body in check, and it has made a world of difference. Regular treatments have helped me stay pain-free, move better and feel stronger overall.Posted on Google Leo ParkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I suffered a slipped lumbar disk which trapped my sciatic nerve, causing pain at a level I had never previously experienced, together with severely impaired muscle use affecting my right leg and foot. I was recommended to Diego, who diagnosed the root cause immediately, even though multiple visits to GP were still insisting the root cause to be "arthritis". Over the past four months Diego has continued my treatment of massage, physical manipulation and acupuncture, along with guidance on appropriate home-based stretching exercises. This has gradually restored muscular control and reduced pain to a manageable level. During this period, Diego has been supportive and knowledgeable in providing treatment and reassurance. Recently, I funded an MRI scan and consultation with an orthopaedic surgeon, who confirmed Diego's whole treatment plan has been absolutely correct and appropriate. From my experience, I have no hesitation in recommending Diego highly. He is a first class osteopath, his manner is professional, courteous and the successful result he has achieved for me a massive relief.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
