What is Osteopathy
Report
Osteopathic treatment aims to restore balance to the body through the release of tensions and restrictions in body tissues- kickstarting the body's self-healing mechanism.
It is a form of manual therapy developed over the last hundred and thirty years, based on the principle that the structure of the body governs its function and, therefore, if the bones, muscles, ligaments and internal organs are out of alignment, the body cannot function at an optimum level and so cannot be fully healthy.All osteopaths are primary healthcare practitioners.

Consultation / Fees
Report
The first consultation usually lasts between 45 minutes to an hour. Before any treatment is given, a thorough case-history is taken where the practitioner will ask you questions about your past medical history and general health as well the particular problem, to obtain as full a picture as possible of the cause of your symptoms.
Sports injuries
Report
The forces exerted on the body during many types of sporting activity may easily cause damage to joints and the structures surrounding joints (the ligaments and muscles). This type of injury may happen at any time but often occurs when the muscles are over contracted. Osteopathic treatment can help at all stages of the recovery process.
Work related injuries
Report
Many work related problems are caused by over-strain of muscles and ligaments due to repetitive movements and poor posture. Occupations requiring heavy lifting place particular strain on the lower back, although shoulders, elbows and knees often succumb to such problems. Office workers and those working at a computer for long periods are also at risk of repetitive strain injuries of joints such as the shoulder and wrist.
