Your first treatment

Your first treatment will include a detailed case history, exam and diagnosis (where possible). Then treatment and most likely some exercises. We’ll be asking you about your lifestyle including sleep, stress levels and nutrition as this will all have an impact your improvement. 

What is osteopathy

The idea of osteopathy is to holistically restore structure and function to the body. This means to look at the body as a whole and find the reasons WHY something is hurting, with the idea that everything is connected and can effect elsewhere in the body.

This can range from tight muscles, locked up joints, poor range of movement, strength or posture; to outside factors such as incorrect nutrition, stress, exercise.

We work with the whole body – not just neck and back pain. But knees, feet, wrists, headaches and jaw pain and even things like sinus and breathing problems.

Techniques during an osteopathy session can include soft and deep tissue work, manipulation, stretching, fascial release and of course – active work from yourself.

Osteopathy is helpful for almost everyone from; sportspeople, expectant mothers, the elderly, children and babies, people suffering chronic or acute pain, or just your everyday work-related problems!
