​

Osteopathy is a primary healthcare system, complementary to other medical practices based on biomedical sciences, that takes a holistic approach to the body and internal systems. An important principle of osteopathy is the stimulation of the body's natural self-healing mechanisms.

 

Osteopaths treat the whole person and consider all aspects of the patient's life, enabling them to maintain optimum health. On your first consultation, your osteopath will compile a detailed case history, followed by a thorough examination. The main tool used for diagnosis and osteopathic treatment is touch. Analysis of your body's movements is also an important aspect. Once a diagnosis is reached and explained to you, your osteopath will use a wide range of manual techniques suitable for your treatment.

 

Osteopathic treatment helps uncover the cause and also act to relieve symptoms you may have. These techniques include:

 

• Articulation work

• Trigger-point therapy

• Stretching

• Gentle joint manipulation

• Soft tissue and myofascial techniques

• Visceral manipulation

• Cranial osteopathy
