Structural Osteopathy

What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is focused on the body's musculo-skeletal system (the bones, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues) and on the way in which this system interrelates with the body as a whole. Osteopaths can diagnose and treat a wide variety of problems which occur within this complex system as a result of injury, disease and stress. We are members of the General Ostepathic Council (as described in the Osteopaths Act 1996).

What can your Osteopath treat here at the College Practice?

We can treat slipped discs, sciatica, headaches (including migraine) and trapped nerves in both the lower back and neck. Many other conditions can be relieved, including:

• Joint pains (shoulder, elbow, knees and feet)
• Wrist problems including RSI (repetitive strain injury) and Carpel Tunnel Syndrome
• Asthma
• Arthritis
• Heartburn (from hiatus hernia)
• Constipation
• Period pain

We specialise in treating sports injuries, Osteopathy for women during pregnancy and post-childbirth, paediatric Osteopathy (for babies and young children), and cranial Osteopthy. We also have a dedicated Pilates Rehabilitation studio.
