Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of musculo skeletal conditions. It works by balancing the structure (skeleton) and function (muscles) of the body
Osteopaths work to restore your body to a state of balance, where possible without the use of drugs or surgery. Osteopaths use touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage to increase the mobility of joints, to relieve muscle tension, to enhance the blood and nerve supply and to help your body’s own healing mechanisms. They may also provide advice on posture and exercise to aid recovery, promote health and prevent symptoms recurring.
Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial Osteopathy is a potent, yet subtle type of treatment that encourages the release of tension throughout the body. It is a gentle yet extremely effective approach and may be used for a wide range of conditions, suitable for babies and people of all ages.
