Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment used to help a wide range of medical conditions.
It works with the structure and function of the body and is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues functioning smoothly together.
Osteopaths use techniques ranging from gentle cranial osteopathy, articulation, soft tissue massage, muscle energy work, stretching, visceral manipulation, to more vigorous joint adjustments to increase the mobility of your joints, to relieve muscle tension, to enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues and to help your body’s own self-healing mechanisms.
They may also provide advice on posture and exercise to aid recovery, promote health and reduce the chance of symptoms recurring.
Our Osteopaths will work to create a bespoke treatment plan based on your symptoms and preferences to get you feeling great again as quickly as possible!
Osteopaths treat people of all ages, including those in manual jobs, office-based workers, pregnant women, children and sportspeople. Patients seek treatment for a wide variety of conditions including pain in their back, neck, head, limbs and pelvis. Our Osteopaths may also be able to help with postural issues in pregnancy, work related conditions from driving or other professional demands, sports injuries and rehabilitation from accidents or surgery.
