Frequently Asked Questions

Osteopathy is a holistic form of manual therapy. We treat the whole body, and look at all the parts of your life that contribute to your health. If you have back pain we might be looking at your hips or your neck, or even your feet, as all the parts of the body affect each other. We might look at stressors that are contributing to your experience of pain and find ways to calm your nervous system. We might also look at activities in your daily life such as work ergonomics, sleeping position, footwear and type of exercise. Osteopathy works from the belief that these parts are connected, that the way you use your body will affect its structure and vice versa, and that your body has a self-healing mechanism that will bring you back to health when blockages to its function are removed.

Osteopathic treatment can range from gentle to strong manipulations. In my practice I prefer to work with fascia, ligaments and muscles in a gentle way, also using your own movements to assist in releasing tension. I can also offer a very subtle approach with cranial osteopathy. I generally do not crack joints.
