Osteopathy For Everyone
Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment which works with the structure and function of the body. The maintenance of good mechanical function is essential to good health. Problems in one part of the body’s framework often leads to aches and pains in joints and muscles elsewhere and may affect both circulation and nerves to any part of the body.
Osteopaths work to restore the structure and function of the body to a state of balance and harmony, so helping the whole person.

What To Expect From Your Consultation & Treatments
On your first visit we will take a detailed medical history and listen to your concerns. Then a careful examination will be carried out followed by specific treatment for your injury or health problem.
You may find one treatment is enough to unlock certain injuries, however generally patients need between 2 – 6 sessions. Some patients feel they benefit from regular treatment once a month or every six months, it is up to the individual.
The initial appointment lasts for around 1 hour which includes taking your medical history, an examination and then treatment. Follow up appointments are for 30 minutes.

Structural Osteopathy is the effective treatment of musculo-skeletal injuries and resulting pain, by articulating, mobilising and manipulating joints both spinal and peripheral, as well as working on muscles, tendons and ligaments using stretch and massage techniques.
Changing and improving the way the body is structured improves the way the body functions.

Osteopathy for Adults
As adults we may have had physical injuries, accidents, operations, demanding work environments or a combination of any of these, resulting at the time or eventually as pain, in one or more parts of our body. The natural aging process may also be at work as a contributory factor.
Adults benefit enormously from osteopathic intervention from identifying the cause, diagnosis, treatment to advice and management.

Osteopathy for Babies & Children
It is a common belief that babies and children have no stresses and strains in their bodies. The reality is very different. During birth the body is subjected to enormous forces and some babies cope very well but for others it’s a different story with resultant tensions and stresses remaining in the body.
This can lead to discomfort and related symptoms such as excessive crying, irritability, poor sleeping, poor feeding.
