Services we Offer
Whether you are seeking support for your newborn, recovering from injury, managing long-standing discomfort, or simply wanting to move more freely, we are here to listen and work with you.
Effective treatment for a variety of conditions
Osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on approach to healthcare that focuses on restoring balance within the body. Treatment is tailored to the individual and can help with a wide range of concerns, from back and neck pain to postural strain, sports injuries, headaches, and the physical stresses of pregnancy and early parenthood.
Sports Injuries & Rehab
We also help with rehabilitation from injury, combining hands-on osteopathic treatment with tailored exercises and practical advice to support recovery, improve strength and mobility, and help prevent recurring pain.
Maternity Clinic
Pregnancy is a unique and demanding experience for every woman. Her body changes rapidlyand must adapt to hormonal, postural and circulatory changes.
Due to previous injuries or excessive demands elsewhere in life some women find that this adaptation is not as easy as it could be.
Babies and Children's Clinic
Some babies experience physical tension following long labours, assisted deliveries or caesarean birth. This may show up as feeding difficulties, unsettled behaviour, head preference or sleep disruption.
Postural Advice
Many patients wrongly assume that aches and pains are part of growning older when poor postural habits often to blame. Osteopathic treatment helps ease chronic postural muscle tension by stretching tight muscles and restoring balance to the body. We will also provide you with the correct postural exercises to help keep you pain free.
Treatment and Advice for Every Stage of Life
Movement is vitally important at every stage of life. Older patients often assume that pain and limited mobility are the inevitable result of ageing when this is often not the case. Our hands-on treatment and exercise programmes will help keep you active and healthy as you get older.
