Back Pain Treatment
Our osteopaths specialise in diagnosing and treating back pain through manual therapy, posture correction, and targeted exercises. We address both acute injuries and chronic conditions using evidence-based techniques. Patients receive personalised treatment plans focusing on long-term pain management and prevention.
Sports Injuries
We provide comprehensive care for sports-related injuries including muscle strains, joint sprains, and repetitive motion disorders. Treatment combines soft tissue manipulation, joint mobilisation, and rehabilitation exercises. Our approach focuses on accelerating recovery while preventing future injuries through biomechanical assessment.
Arthritis Management
Our osteopathic approach to arthritis management includes gentle joint mobilisation, muscle relaxation techniques, and lifestyle advice. We help improve joint mobility and reduce pain through tailored treatment programmes. Patients receive guidance on home exercises and posture adjustments to maintain mobility.
Neck & Shoulder Pain Relief
Specialised treatment for neck and shoulder pain caused by poor posture, injury, or repetitive strain. We employ cranial osteopathy techniques alongside soft tissue work to relieve tension. Patients learn ergonomic adjustments and stretching routines to prevent recurrence.
Repetitive Strain Injuries
We treat repetitive strain injuries through manual therapy and ergonomic assessments. Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, restoring mobility, and preventing recurrence. Patients receive workstation advice and specific exercises to address work-related musculoskeletal issues.
