Osteopathy is a complimentary form of healthcare that is suitable for anyone of any age. The techniques used in Osteopathy aim to positively influence all of the body’s systems to encourage good health.
Osteopaths treat many musculoskeletal problems and pain involving the bones, muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments. It is a widely used therapy for the treatment and management of generalised pain in areas such as the
Back
Neck
Shoulders
Elbows
Hips
Legs
Knees
Hands
Feet
People every day seek Osteopathic treatment for common conditions such as sciatica, whiplash, arthritis/joint pain, frozen shoulder, tennis/golfers elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, back pain relating to pregnancy, plantar fasciitis, fybromyalgia as well as other conditions.
The aim is to not only treat the pain, but consider and treat the patient as a whole, by encouraging overall function of the body. The area of pain may not always be the originating source, but the outlet for another dysfunction.
