What is Osteopathy?

Maintaining a healthyframework can improve the support of everything inside, and the function of the whole musclulo-skeletal system is optimised when in a situation of good balance.

Treatment methods are all “hands on” aiming to improve the mobility, relax tissues to maximise inflammatory fluid drainage, or stabilise an area, depending on the problem diagnosed. Any problem through the mechanical framework of the body can have a knock on effect on the organs within. Maintaining a healthy framework can help the body cope better with conditions such as asthma, digestive problems and period pain.

Cranial Osteopathy

This is a refined, subtle treatment which works on the tiny ranges of movement possible between the different bones of the skull. There is normally a rhythmic motion throughout the system, and any restrictions in the framework can create wide-ranging problems. The infant skull naturally has greater mobility, it is prone to more problems but it is also very reactive to treatment.
