Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a medicine based on the principle that our bodies
have an inbuilt capacity to self regulate and self heal. If
there are mechanical imbalances within the body's structure,
these will disturb the body's overall well being.
Obviously, osteopathy is an excellent treatment for many
problems affecting the musculo-skeletal system. However, because
of the intricate relationship between our structure and how
well we function, osteopathy offers much wider benefits.
Having taken your medical history, the osteopath will conduct
a full physical examination including any orthopaedic and
neurological tests necessary.
The osteopath's skill lies in their highly trained ability
to observe the body's lack of balance and to feel tensions
whether in the spine, the joints, or within the delicate balance
of the cranium.
They use a variety of gentle manual techniques to release
tensions throughout the body to help restore harmony and relieve
pain and thus allow the body's own "internal physician"
to help restore balance and health.
