What is Osteopathy
Report
Osteopathy is a gentle treatment using a variety of hands-on techniques to diagnose and treat structural and bio-mechanical dysfunctions in the body. As Osteopaths, the emphasis of our treatment is on the whole person and not solely on their symptoms. We treat muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints and fascia to support the body's self-healing mechanism, to gently release any strains present, relieve pain and discomfort and improve mobility.
What to Expect
Report
A thorough case history is taken followed by any relevant physical and orthopaedic examination. Treatment involves hands-on techniques, which will help your body to restore its natural state of balance, alignment and function. Most people feel increased movement and decreased muscle spasm / strain after treatment.
Dry Needling
Report
Dry needling is a technique involving fine filament needles, (similar to those used in acupuncture) it's application is used to release myofacial trigger points (MTP) and tight muscles. By placing the needles in either a shortened muscle or a MTP it stimulates a healing response to release and lengthen or deactivate and desensitize the affected muscle.
