What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is an effective treatment which is used to medicate a wide variety of medical conditions including back ache, neck pain and arthritis. If you have any doubt on whether osteopathy is the right choice for you, please just get in touch. At your appointment we will provide you with additional techniques on how to prevent symptoms from recurring such as posture modification, lifestyle changes and exercise recommendations. Osteopathy includes a range of gentle, manual techniques including soft tissue, manipulation and stretching. It increases mobility to spinal and peripheral joints, eases muscle tension and increases blood supply to tissues. This, then helps reduce the body's inflammatory responses and reduces the pain in the targeted area.

What can you expect?

Your initial consultation lasts around 30 minutes. Firstly, we will discuss your medical history and details in order to get a fuller picture of your symptoms and general health. This also gives the practitioner an idea if a GP referral is necessary. Then, we will examine relevant joints and treat where necessary all within the first session.

Treatment should not be painful. It aims to reduce inflammation, muscle spasms and provide pain relief. Our most commonly used techniques include:

Articulation - A range of gentle joint movements

Soft tissue - Applying light to firm pressure on relevant muscle tissues

Manipulation - This is often accompanied by a clicking sound and will only be used if the patient is comfortable
