Modern life can take its toll on the body. Osteopathy can help encourage a healthier, more adaptable body, so you're better equipped to manage the challenges that it brings. Treating each person as a unique individual, encompassing physical, mental and social factors, osteopathy helps to balance the systems of the body to help encourage and nurture our natural drive for health.
The body can be likened to a machine in which each mechanical part must be able to move freely in relation to one another for overall efficient functioning. Like any machine the body will occasionally need fine-tuning.

What is Osteopathy
Report
Using hands-on manipulation of tissues to restore health and function, osteopathy can help alleviate pain and discomfort from a wide range of problems. Gentle, non-invasive manual techniques are used to increase the mobility of joints, relieve muscle tensions and enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues, encouraging the body's natural healing mechanisms.
What to expect
Report
Your first visit will take up to an hour where a detailed case history will be taken followed by an examination. Questions will be asked about your symptoms and medical history to create a picture of your overall health. A working diagnosis and treatment plan will be discussed, leaving plenty of time for your first treatment.

Pregnancy and Post Natal
Report
Pregnancy produces the largest postural change that a woman's body will ever undergo. As the baby grows in the womb and extra weight is gained, the centre of gravity alters resulting in postural changes from week to week. This may lead to a variety of aches and pains. Osteopathic treatment will maximise your body's ability to change and support you and your baby.
Osteopathy for Babies & Children
Report
Many people believe that babies and children are too young and pliable to suffer from and structural stresses and strains, but in reality they do. When a baby is born it is subjected to enormous forces and strains as the uterus contracts against the resistance of the birth canal to push the baby out.
