Osteoxfit's product and buying guides (office chairs, desks, mattresses, footwear and rehabilitation equipment) are written by the Osteoxfit Editorial Team: a research and writing process, not a single named clinician. This page exists so that's never ambiguous.
Three roles sit behind this content, and we keep them clearly separate rather than blurring them into one authoritative-sounding byline:
Osteoxfit Editorial Team: writing and research
Responsible for selecting products, checking official specifications and current UK pricing, cross-referencing independent reviews and evidence, and drafting each guide. Editorial output is specification-based unless a page explicitly states that Osteoxfit physically tested the product. See how we research product guides and our product testing method.
Amina Shamsi, M.Ost: clinical review
Amina is the GOsC registered osteopath (No. 10504) behind Osteoxfit's clinical practice. Where a guide makes a health or safety claim, that claim is meant to be checked against her clinical judgement before it's treated as reviewed. Read more about Amina.
Aurora: illustration
Aurora is the illustration identity behind the artwork used across Osteoxfit's articles. She draws; she does not write or clinically review product content. See Aurora's page.
Why we separate these roles
It would be easy to attach a single respected name to everything Osteoxfit publishes. We don't, because it wouldn't be accurate. A large volume of product research can be produced faster than one clinician can personally verify every claim, and pretending otherwise misrepresents both the content and the person named. Where a page has not yet been through clinical review, it says so rather than implying otherwise.
What "specification-based" means in practice
Most current product guides are researched from official manufacturer specifications, current UK pricing, published warranty and returns terms, and credible independent reviews and evidence, not from physically testing the item ourselves. Guides that have been genuinely hands-on tested are labelled "Osteoxfit Tested" and disclose the method, dates and limitations of that test. We do not use that label unless it's true.
