Osteopathy aims to restore a person’s natural state of wellbeing & function, promoting the neurological, musculoskeletal, circulatory & visceral structures to work in balance together.
We focus on how joints, muscles, nerves, connective tissues, internal organs & circulation function as a holistic unit. Pain, stiffness or altered function in one area of the body can result from restrictions &/or compensations in another area of the body.
Pain can be heightened if you are particularly stressed, tired, worried or anxious. We treat you, the person, & not your injury or condition. After all, each person’s experience of pain or dysfunction is individual & successful treatment should always reflect this.

Treatment can include hands-on manual therapy, education, lifestyle advice & exercise prescription.
Occasionally, we may need to refer you to another health professional for additional or more appropriate care, or for medical imaging.
Osteopaths are evidence-based practitioners, combining scientific research, clinical experience & patient preferences to direct our treatment choices.
Ask us what evidence exists for your condition & its treatment.
We can help to reduce the pain & loss of function associated with many musculoskeletal injuries. The most common we see are back pain neck pain headaches joint pain, such as the shoulders, hips & knees nerve pain, such as sciatica and carpal tunnel muscle, tendon or ligament injuries We feel that helping you to recover fully, to minimise the risk of re-injury, is just as important as your shorter-term goals of reducing pain & getting back to everyday activities.
Often painful conditions, such as arthritis, can be ongoing or can, like headaches, reoccur regularly. Our aim with more chronic conditions is to help you to find ways to minimise its impact on your life, and to get you back to doing more of the things you enjoy. Over the longer term, you become less defined by your condition & you can better manage any flare-ups.
