Holistic Approach

Osteopathy is a type of manual medicine that is “hands on” and diagnoses, treats and manages conditions of the musculoskeletal system. Osteopathy is based on 4 main treatment principles that include:

• The body is a unit

• The body has self-regulation mechanisms

• Structure and function are reciprocally interrelated

• Rational treatment – body unity, self-regulation, and the interrelationship of structure and function

Osteopaths focus on the persona as a whole, taking into consideration all aspects of health - physical, mental, social and environmental.

Our role is to:

• Reduce and improve your Pain

• Improve healing time

• Prevent Injury

• Improve joint mobility and muscle stability and flexibility

• Educate our patients on their conditions and best management plans specific to them

What to Expect

During your consultation, our team of 4 Osteopaths will take a full medical history, perform an examination and diagnose your presenting complaint. You will receive a full explanation on your condition, and with your consent will use techniques that are evidence based, effective and specifically tailored to help you.

This may include soft tissue massage, mobilization of the joints and muscles, joint manipulation, muscle energy techniques, myofascial release, dry needling and rehabilitation techniques.

Each person and their pain is individual, and therefore treatment and management will be specific for each person that we see, even if they have a similar problem.

Osteopaths treat the body as a whole unit – we focus on all areas which may be causing pain or contributing to the presenting complaint. This allows us to get to the root cause of the pain itself.
