And just as no two people are the same, neither is the treatment they need, so our Osteopaths and Therapy Practitioners work with you in a way that’s in tune with your individual needs, providing an effective tailor-made treatment plan. Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions. Osteopathic treatment does not target symptoms only, but treats the parts of the body that have caused the symptoms, based on the principle that well-being depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues all functioning smoothly together. Osteopaths believe that your whole body will work well if it’s in good structural balance. So, we carefully unravel what's happening and gently work to restore your body to this state using touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage to increase mobility, relieve muscle tension, enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues, and to help your body’s own healing mechanisms.
