Back Pain Treatment
Our back pain treatment addresses mechanical issues through manual techniques targeting muscles, ligaments, and joints. We identify root causes like posture or lifestyle factors, employing soft tissue work and joint mobilisation to restore function. Patients receive tailored exercise programmes for long-term management, with most requiring 2-3 sessions for effective resolution of acute conditions.
Sports Injury Therapy
Specialised care for sports-related injuries combines injury prevention strategies with targeted rehabilitation. We treat common issues like sprains and strains using techniques that improve circulation and reduce inflammation. Treatment plans incorporate functional movement analysis and sport-specific exercises to ensure safe return to activity while preventing re-injury through biomechanical correction.
Arthritis Management
Our approach to arthritis management focuses on improving joint mobility and reducing stiffness through gentle manual techniques. We complement medical treatment by addressing compensatory movement patterns, providing pain relief through soft tissue work and joint mobilisation. Patients learn self-management techniques including controlled exercise programmes to maintain mobility and reduce symptom flare-ups effectively.
Postural Correction
Comprehensive postural assessment identifies mechanical imbalances contributing to pain. Treatment combines spinal adjustments with muscle energy techniques to realign the body's framework. We provide workplace ergonomics advice and corrective exercises to address modern lifestyle-related postural issues, preventing chronic pain development through proactive biomechanical optimisation.
Pregnancy Care
Gentle osteopathic techniques address the physical stresses of pregnancy, focusing on pelvic alignment and postural adaptations. We alleviate common discomforts like back pain and sciatica through safe, non-invasive methods suitable for all trimesters. Treatment includes postural advice and preparation exercises to support the body's changes during pregnancy and facilitate easier labour.
