Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a natural therapy which combines manual ‘hands-on’ techniques with exercise and advice.
Osteopathy 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.
An osteopath works to restore your body to a state of balance without using drugs or surgery.
Although osteopathy is traditionally a hands-on therapy, as research and technology develop, so do the treatment modalities that we use. As a result, we may also incorporate taping into a treatment plan, perhaps the use of ultrasound and sometimes dry needling to improve the treatment outcome.
Why Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a natural therapy which combines manual ‘hands-on’ techniques with exercise and advice.
Osteopathy 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.
An osteopath works to restore your body to a state of balance without using drugs or surgery.
We use touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage techniques to increase the mobility of joints, relieve muscular tension, enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues, and to help a person’s own healing mechanisms.
Osteopathy is an holistic system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions and is designed to provide pain relief for the body’s structural and mechanical problems.
A gentle form of treatment, osteopathy can benefit most types of aches, pains and strains in people of every age. Osteopaths often provide advice on posture and exercise to aid recovery, promote health and prevent symptoms from reoccurring.
As osteopaths, we treat many conditions, although a common myth is that most people think of us as ‘back specialists’.
Although we do see a lot of people looking for back pain relief, don’t forget that osteopathic treatment can benefit all parts of the skeleton. It does not just target your symptoms but treats the parts of the body that have caused these symptoms.
Osteopaths assess and treat people of all types and ages: from the very elderly to newborn babies, and from pregnant women to elite sports people.
