Osteopathy is a gentle and effective hands-on approach to healthcare which places  emphasis on the muscloskeletal system.

 

Osteopathy treats and prevents a wide range of health problems. Osteopaths use a combination of movement, stretching, targeted deep tissue massage and manipulation of a person’s muscles and joints to improve function, relieve pain and aid recovery..Osteopaths are highly competent healthcare professionals, recognised by the NHS as fully qualified to diagnose and treat independently.

​

They are skilled in assessing the mechanics of the whole body, in particular the spine and treat a variety of conditions including:

 

​

• Neck and back pain

• Arthritis

• Sciatica

• Headaches

• Joint and muscular pain

• Vertigo

• Repetitive strain and overuse injuries

• Pregnancy-related discomfort

• Tendonitis (rozen shoulder)

• Sports injuries.
