Osteopathy

How can osteopathy help?

My approach starts with an accurate diagnosis and clear explanation of what is going on with you. Depending on the type of injury, healing times vary. Right from the outset I will be clear with you about what you should expect.

What does treatment involve?

Treatment is aimed at reducing pain, speeding recovery and promoting healing. This can include manipulation, soft tissue release, acupuncture and exercise.

Longer term it may be appropriate to look at underlying factors such as posture and stress to maintain your well-being. Exercise, postural education and relaxation are all effective ways of helping.

What can I do?

Being actively involved in your recovery helps a great deal. If you understand what is going on and why it is happening then finding ways to help yourself recover and stay well becomes easier.
