Services
Osteopathy
Our osteopathy treatments use gentle manual techniques to address musculoskeletal issues, including back pain, joint problems, and sports injuries. We combine mobilisation, manipulation, and soft tissue work with exercise prescription to improve mobility and reduce pain. Patients receive tailored treatment plans addressing both symptoms and underlying causes through holistic assessment of the body's interconnected systems.
IDD Therapy
Specialist IDD Therapy targets disc-related pain using computer-controlled decompression to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves. This non-invasive treatment addresses herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic back pain through targeted traction combined with rehabilitation. Our protocol includes progressive courses of treatment designed to restore spinal mobility and prevent relapse through structured maintenance programmes.
Sciatica Treatment
We offer comprehensive sciatica management combining osteopathic techniques with IDD Therapy for disc-related nerve compression. Treatment addresses both immediate pain relief and long-term functional restoration through decompression, muscle relaxation, and targeted exercise programmes. Our approach focuses on reducing nerve irritation while improving spinal mobility and preventing future episodes through patient education.
Injury Rehabilitation
Our rehabilitation programmes integrate osteopathic treatment with progressive exercise prescription to restore full function after sports or musculoskeletal injuries. Using manual therapy alongside Rehab My Patient software, we develop individualised recovery plans incorporating core stability work, stretching, and muscle energy techniques. Treatment focuses on restoring mobility while building strength to prevent re-injury through structured progression.
Corrective Massage
Corrective massage addresses muscular imbalances and chronic pain through myofascial release and trigger point therapy techniques. This treatment improves range of motion by releasing soft tissue restrictions while complementing osteopathic care through targeted muscle relaxation. Sessions incorporate stretching protocols to enhance mobility and support long-term pain management outcomes through structural realignment.
