Osteopaths use their hands to investigate the underlying causes of pain and to carry out treatment using manipulative and soft-tissue techniques. Acupuncture, a system of healing practised in the Far East for over two thousand years, treats pain and illness as signs that the body is out of balance.
Homeopathy, in use for over 200 years, is a holistic therapy which aims to stimulate the body's capacity to heal itself using the principle 'like cures like'. Ripon Natural Health Centre is happy to be able to provide Aromatherapy, Sports and Remedial Massage and Deep Memory Process Therapy.

Osteopathy
Report
The founder of osteopathy, Andrew Taylor Still, suffered from regular bad headaches as a young boy of 10 years old. He discovered an ingenious way to cure them. He tied a rope swing between two trees eight to ten inches off the ground. He wrote, I lay stretched on my back, with my neck across the rope.
Acupuncture
Report
The earliest acupuncture devices were made of stone. These were not used to pierce the skin, but rather to press on acupuncture points. Historians presume that before metal needles were discovered, thorns, bamboo slivers and sharpened bone were used to stimulate acupuncture points. The oldest acupuncture needles found date to A.D. 600.
Homeopathy
Report
In 1831 Cholera swept through Europe. Homeopaths treating the disease achieved a mortality rate (number of people who died) of less than 4% compared to conventional medical treatments, where the mortality rate was 59%. In 1854 during the cholera outbreak in London, deaths at the London Homeopathic Hospital were a mere 16.4% compared with the 50% average for other hospitals.
