“To find health should be the object of the practitioner. Anyone can find disease.”

A. T. Still, founder of Osteopathy

We, as Osteopathic therapists, get to the root of your injury by using our hands to discover the places in your body that are out of balance.  With gentle hands on manipulation to free restricted joints, tight muscles, tethered nerves and blockages around organs you will find your symptoms begin to clear. 

We tend to find that there are 2 major impacts from our treatments that you will likely benefit from:

1. 1.Perhaps you’ve been in pain for a while and within the first session with us you are suddenly able to move in a way that an hour ago you couldn’t because the pain you were experiencing is less and the restriction or tightness feels easier.
   

2. 2.Activities you stopped because of your injury are a possibility again.  Yes, there is a healing period that means you may not be able to do the activity the same day as the treatment but now it’s just a case of a few days, maybe a few weeks, until you are feeling well in yourself and more mobile than you’ve been for a long time.
   

Osteopathy isn’t new, it was actually first developed as a system and philosophy of health care in the 1870’s by a medical doctor who was disillusioned with the practice of prescribing drugs and performing surgery at the time.

He developed a form of hands on healing that recognized that the body is always striving for health and that adjustments are only necessary to allow health to flow back to an area that is out of balance.

Our Core Principles

1. 1.We treat with our hands, connecting to you as an individual rather than using a standardized approach. 
   

2. 2.We look at the whole body.
   

3. 3.The aim of our treatment is to encourage your innate drive for health (that has been evolving for millenia) to do the work it should be doing.
   

Manually trained Osteopathic therapists are different from Osteopathic Physicians. Osteopathic Physicians are trained as medical doctors in the U.S.A. and work in similar way to medical doctors, for more information about Osteopathic Physicians please look click here.
