Osteopathy

Osteopathy is a gentle and effective hands-on approach to healthcare, that can be used on patients of any age, from babies to the elderly. It is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the different parts of the musculoskeletal system functioning smoothly together.

Osteopaths are highly trained holistic healthcare professionals, with expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, who tailor treatment to your individual needs. They use gentle touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage to increase the mobility of joints, relieve muscle tension and enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues to help your body’s own healing mechanisms.

They also provide advice on exercise and posture to aid recovery, and to promote long term health and wellbeing of their patients. 

We are trained to screen for medical conditions and will advise you if you need to see another health professional such as your doctor or midwife.

We are statutorily regulated, primary healthcare professionals, recognised by the NHS and carry professional indemnity insurance.
