Osteopathy is a holistic system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions. It works on the principle that the well-being of an individual relies on the optimal function of all the body’s structures, as well as carefully considering the effect of environmental and psycho-social factors to health. Please be aware this session is only suitable as a follow up session. Treatment is a hands on therapy, using palpation, soft tissue massage, stretching and careful joint manipulation. This aims to reduce muscle tension, restore joint mobility, and enhance blood flow and nerve supply to tissues. Diagnosis is reached through thorough health screening and appropriate medical examination. Osteopathy primarily treats conditions such as: •Back pain •Neck and shoulder pain •Sciatica and slipped discs •Stress •Headaches and migraines •Repetitive strain injuries (RSI) •Arthritic pain •Sports injuries •Back pain during and after pregnancy •Poor posture
