Osteopathy For Adults

Osteopathy For Adults

Most adult patients visit the practice for one of the following reasons:

  • Sudden pain brought on by recent physical trauma, awkward movement or occasionally for ‘no apparent reason’.
  • Ongoing chronic pain caused or aggravated by repetitive movements or spending long hours (sometimes a few minutes) in one position such as sitting at a computer, driving or standing.
  • Ongoing chronic pain caused by accidents or operations in the past. Often these are thought of as unrelated to the presenting symptoms.
  • Simple movements such as walking or running which don’t feel right, although there is little or no pain.
  • Stress related musculo-skeletal pain and tension.

 

Conditions we treat at the practice:

  • Neck and back pain
  • Headaches
  • Trapped nerves
  • Peripheral joint and muscle pain – shoulder/elbow/hand/hip/knee/foot
  • Posture related problems
  • Sports injuries
  • Pain in pregnancy
  • Pain related to arthritic changes

If when assessed we feel that we are unable to help, referral to a GP or a different specialist will be advised.
