What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a successful and safe way of detecting and treating troubled muscles, joints, ligaments, and nerves. Using gentle manual techniques, your osteopath will unwind and release compressions, strains and torsions that build up in the body and cause symptoms. When the body is balanced and efficient it will function with energy and vitality.

We are also very interested in long term complex health problems. What are the stresses that have built up to cause the trouble? What pressures are stopping natural healing proccesses from taking over?

When we can help these deeper tensions to rebalance all sorts of nasty chronic disabilities may become solvable.

Very severe migraines, arthritis, horrible shoulders and many general health "syndromes" are often surprisingly responsive.
