Services
Osteopathy
Osteopathy uses manual techniques to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions. Our practitioners address back pain, joint issues, and postural problems through tailored treatments combining soft tissue work, manipulation, and patient education. With four-year degrees and annual CPD requirements, our osteopaths ensure safe, evidence-based care for improved mobility and long-term wellness.
Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial osteopathy employs subtle techniques to relieve stress and improve bodily function. Particularly effective for infants, pregnant women, and chronic pain sufferers, this approach addresses headaches, birth trauma, and nervous system imbalances. Practitioners use precise palpation skills to identify and correct tissue restrictions throughout the body.
Sports Rehabilitation
Specialist sports rehabilitation combines osteopathic techniques with exercise therapy. We treat acute injuries and prevent recurrence through biomechanical assessments, ergonomic advice, and tailored recovery programs. Our practitioners work with athletes of all levels to restore function and enhance performance safely and effectively.
Acupuncture
Trigger point acupuncture addresses musculoskeletal pain through fine needle insertion. Used alongside osteopathy, this technique relaxes muscle tension and improves circulation. Our practitioners integrate acupuncture with other therapies to treat chronic pain, headaches, and sports injuries using evidence-based protocols.
Hair Mineral Testing
Hair tissue mineral analysis assesses mineral status and toxic metal exposure. This non-invasive test identifies imbalances affecting energy levels and chronic conditions. Combined with naturopathic guidance, it informs personalised supplementation plans to optimise cellular health and prevent degenerative diseases.
