Osteopathy
Established over 100 years ago osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of mechanical and medical conditions. It believes that for the body to function at optimum health then its structure must function well.
Having a highly developed sense of touch osteopaths are able to identify problem areas in the body then using effective gentle techniques they can safely restore the body to a state of balance and function.
Key to this approach is a view of the body as a whole. Trained in both medical and osteopathic diagnosis, osteopaths are able to diagnose musculoskeletal imbalances. Treatment can involve combinations of gentle joint manipulation, soft tissue release, cranial osteopathy, stretching as well as advice on posture and exercise.
This diversity variety of approaches allows us to effectively deal with patients unique. Treatment is tailored to the individual and can be used on all ages from babies and children to adults and senior citizens.
Osteopaths undergo a rigorous four year degree and are recognised by the government and the General Medical Council. The profession is the leading complimentary discipline dedicated to improving standards for both patients and practitioners, and works alongside orthodox medicine to promote patient well-being.
