Osteopathy
Osteopathy treats the whole person, not just conditions, and aims to achieve the best possible state of balance and health in the musculoskeletal tissues of the body. The aim is to reduce pain and improve mobility in all parts of the body, using their highly developed sense of touch osteopaths detect and ease areas of strain or imbalance in the body. Our male and female osteopaths offer structural and cranial techniques, and our principle osteopath is a qualified paediatric osteopath treating babies, children and pregnant and new mums. Muscle pain and tension is often the symptom not the cause of pain, and osteopathy is aimed at identifying and treating the underlying cause of muscle tension and pain. Conditions benefitting from treatment include back and neck ache, sciatica and lumbago, arthritic and rheumatic pain, joint pains, neuralgia, cramp and muscle spasms, and general aches and pains. It is also useful for headache and migraine prevention, circulatory and digestion problems, and the inability to relax.
