Osteopathy is a holistic manual medicine which recognises the important link between the structure and function of the body.
Our focus is directed on how your body including the spine, joints, muscles, ligaments, connective tissue, viscera and nervous/circulatory systems all function as one whole unit. We place importance on the integration between the mind body and soul to achieve overall health.
Aiming to address the cause of your issue rather than the symptom, coupled with specific management to inform, educate and prevent re-occurrence. An Osteopathic consult comprises of a detailed medical history, assessment, accurate diagnosis, treatment and management of your complaint.
Treatment is tailored to the patient using appropriate evidence based techniques including manipulation, articulation, soft tissue, muscle energy techniques, and stretching.
Your time is spent one on one with your osteopath, in an environment which is friendly, professional and individually focused.
To sum it up – “find it, fix it, and leave it alone” as Dr Andrew Tailor Still, Founder of Osteopathy once said.
