Services
Osteopathy
Osteopathy addresses musculoskeletal issues through hands-on techniques. We treat back pain, joint problems, and postural concerns using soft tissue manipulation and joint mobilisation. Our approach focuses on improving mobility and stimulating the body's natural healing processes for long-term relief.
Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial osteopathy employs subtle techniques to address tension patterns throughout the body. This approach benefits patients of all ages, particularly infants and pregnant women. We use gentle pressure to release restrictions in the cranial bones and surrounding tissues for improved overall function.
Pregnancy Care
Our pregnancy-specific osteopathy addresses biomechanical changes during gestation. We alleviate back pain, pelvic girdle pain, and sciatica using safe, gentle techniques. Treatment supports optimal foetal positioning and prepares the body for labour while maintaining maternal comfort throughout all trimesters.
Paediatric Treatment
Specialised osteopathic care for infants and children addresses birth-related strains and developmental concerns. We treat feeding difficulties, colic symptoms, and positional plagiocephaly using extremely gentle techniques. Our approach supports healthy musculoskeletal development while addressing common childhood complaints.
Medical Acupuncture
Medical acupuncture complements osteopathic treatment for pain management. We use fine needles to target specific trigger points, reducing muscle tension and promoting circulation. This evidence-based approach enhances treatment outcomes for chronic pain conditions and sports injuries when integrated with manual therapy.
