Osteopathy concentrates on the relationship between the structure of the body — bones, muscles, ligaments and connective tissue — and the way the body moves.
Many patients choose regular sessions to maintain overall wellbeing, not only to ease a flare-up.
Treatment is different for every patient. Techniques may include soft-tissue massage, muscle stretches and gentle joint movement to release tension, relieve pain, mobilise joints, enhance blood supply to tissues and help the body to heal.
The body functions as a complete system, so a problem in one area can upset the balance of general health. An osteopath will not simply want to ease pain and stiffness, but also to understand what is causing it.
Health at Hart offers osteopathy for back pain, neck pain, posture, sports injuries and wider musculoskeletal concerns.
Initial session 60 minutes. Follow-up 40 minutes. A full consultation is included in the first visit.
