What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy promotes the bodies own natural healing processes. It is a system of diagnosis and treatment aimed to provide relief from problems caused by malfunction of the body’s inter-related muscular, skeletal and nervous systems.

Treatment involves gentle hands on techniques, which may include manipulation, for a range of painful and sometimes disabling conditions such as back and neck pain; shoulder and arm pain; hip and leg pain; and headaches.

Also pain that remains undiagnosed after medical investigations are normal andmay be found to respond. Problems arising in work, sport or any other aspect of life are equally suited to an osteopathic approach.
