Services
Osteopathy for Babies
Specialised osteopathic treatment for infants addressing colic, sleeplessness, and developmental strains. Gentle techniques support natural growth patterns and alleviate discomfort caused by birth trauma or postural imbalances. Our practitioners focus on improving mobility and function to promote healthy development during early life stages.
Sports Injury Treatment
Targeted osteopathic care for sports-related injuries including strains, sprains, and overuse conditions. We employ manual therapy to restore joint mobility, reduce muscle tension, and accelerate healing. Treatment plans incorporate rehabilitation advice to prevent recurrence and enhance athletic performance through improved biomechanics.
Pregnancy Care
Osteopathic treatment tailored to address postural changes and discomfort during pregnancy. Techniques focus on relieving back pain, pelvic strain, and joint stress caused by physiological adaptations. We provide safe, drug-free relief while supporting optimal foetal positioning and preparing the body for labour.
Postural Correction
Specialised assessment and treatment for posture-related issues arising from work strain, driving, or sedentary lifestyles. Manual techniques realign musculoskeletal structures while offering ergonomic advice to prevent recurring pain. We address chronic tension patterns to improve spinal alignment and functional movement efficiency.
Repetitive Strain Relief
Osteopathic intervention for work-related repetitive strain injuries affecting hands, wrists, and upper limbs. Treatment combines soft tissue manipulation with nerve mobilisation techniques to reduce inflammation and restore mobility. We provide workplace ergonomics guidance to prevent symptom recurrence and maintain functional capacity.

I hobbled in a broken woman and floated out like a butterfly! Emma is not only knowledgeable she has years of experience. I have been lucky to not have needed to come back for a while. So I'm elated to say that after 16 years Emma definitely has not lost her touch.

I've been attending here for over 10 years. I am treated for M.E. and general muscular issues. Emma is superb, she is very knowledgeable and professional. Whilst at the same time being friendly and a good listener. I highly recommend her.
