Services
Traditional Osteopathy
Manual therapy using joint mobilisation and soft tissue techniques to address musculoskeletal imbalances. Treats spinal misalignments and joint restrictions through high-velocity thrusts and rhythmic movements. Promotes natural healing by restoring mechanical function across muscular, ligamentous and skeletal systems.
Cranial Osteopathy
Gentle treatment targeting cranial rhythm imbalances through subtle manipulations of skull bones and sacrum. Particularly effective for infants post-birth trauma and adults seeking stress relief. Utilises precise palpation to release deep tissue tensions without forceful adjustments.
Visceral Osteopathy
Specialised technique addressing connective tissue restrictions around internal organs. Complements spinal adjustments by restoring mobility to viscera and associated neural pathways. Addresses functional disorders through gentle manual engagement of abdominal and thoracic organ systems.
