WHAT IS OSTEOPATHY?

Osteopathy is a patient focused and holistic approach within primary healthcare that offers a complete, safe and effective system of manual medicine. It uses all methods of diagnosis and treatment underpinned by the understanding of how muscles, joints and soft tissues work.

Over 30,000 people every day visit an osteopath suffering from a variety of conditions including: neck, shoulder or back pain; sports injuries and recurring headaches.

In recognition to the contribution made to UK health - Osteopathy has been given Allied Health Professional (AHP) status by NHS England.

Why you should consider Osteopathy Recreational pursuits and activities for daily living require adequate rotation of the spine where the risk of injury through poor conditioning compounds with age. Osteopathic techniques and treatment can decrease anxiety and reduce blood pressure, optimise range of movement, modulate pain and normalise function so you can return to an active and healthy lifestyle. Osteopathy exemplifies and puts into practise an understanding of the patient’s mind, emotion and physical state to find and restore health. Osteopathic manual medicine is a system of assessing, diagnosing, treating and preventing a wide range of health problems including: Sciatica Neck pain Headaches Shoulder pain Hand and elbow pain Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow Back pain Foot pain Knee and ankle pain.Descriptive text for the image
