What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a Holistic form of complementary medical treatment which uses gentle manual techniques to diagnose and treat a wide range of health problems.

The Osteopath gently works with the body's structure to enhance and accelerate the healing process. Osteopathy aims to relieve your pain and discomfort, and to improve your mobility.

Osteopaths work with the philosophy that the structure of your body is directly connected to how it will function. Correcting your body's structure allows normal function. Fluid movement through the body tissues will improve after correcting the structure and a more effective exchange of nutrients and wastes begins. Your body can then heal as fast as is possible depending on the degree of injury.

Osteopathy is great for all ages and stages of your life boasting great results in achieving pain relief quickly.

Although Osteopaths do have manipulation in their repertoire of techniques, being highly skilled in gentle non-manipulative techniques is clearly an advantage in treating the young and elderly... and for anyone who just isn't fond of "cracking" the joints.
