Osteopathy for adults

Osteopathy is best known for success in treating musculo-skeletal problems in men and women. Stresses of every day life play a part in body pain - so the body draws our attention to what is happening through the feeling of pain in the body. Cranial Osteopathy is especially helpful for facial pain and helping resolve physical trauma patterns and the emotional toll that facial pain takes on us.

Beyond this Osteopathy can be helpful for a wide variety of other health issues, particularly for people who have not found a solution to their health problems elsewhere.

I give you a thorough review of your well-being. I will assess how well you breathe and ask about your sleeping and eating patterns. Together, we will look together at how to help you back to good health through making simple lifestyle changes.

The usual problems that people to see me for are around:

• Body aches and pain especially in the neck, shoulders and back, or limb joints

• Headache, migraine prevention and jaw pain

• Injuries

• Joint problems including ankle, elbow and wrist hip, knee, foot, shoulder, sciatica

• Nerve pain

• Sports injuries

The range of presentations can be diverse including:

• Circulatory problems and cramp

• Chronic fatigue

• Digestive problems such as reflux, IBS, constipation

• Fibromyalgia

• Inability to relax

• Rheumatic problems

Please note that treatments may be tiring. I advise that you shouldn’t do any vigorous exercise for 48 hours after your appointment.

A typical treatment plan is 2-4 appointments.
