Services
Osteopathy
Osteopathy at Petts Wood Osteopathic Clinic addresses musculoskeletal issues through hands-on techniques. Our practitioners treat back pain, joint problems, and sports injuries using spinal manipulation and soft tissue therapy. Patients receive tailored rehabilitation programs to prevent recurrence, with proven success in complex cases like disc injuries and post-surgical recovery.
Sports Injury Treatment
Specialised sports injury management combines osteopathic treatment with performance psychology. We address acute injuries and chronic conditions through biomechanical assessment, targeted therapy, and exercise prescription. Our approach helps athletes improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance performance, supported by decades of clinical experience in sports rehabilitation.
Pilates Classes
Clinical Pilates sessions focus on core stability, flexibility, and functional movement. Tailored exercises accommodate varying fitness levels, with modifications for older adults and rehabilitation needs. Classes incorporate postural correction and muscle strengthening techniques to improve overall physical conditioning, as evidenced by patient testimonials reporting enhanced stamina and well-being.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture services integrate traditional Chinese medicine principles with modern pain management strategies. Fine needles stimulate specific points to alleviate chronic pain, reduce inflammation, and promote natural healing processes. This complementary therapy works synergistically with osteopathic treatment for conditions like neck stiffness and joint discomfort.
Performance Psychology
Performance psychology services enhance athletic achievement through mental skills training. Techniques include goal setting, visualisation, and stress management to optimise focus and resilience. This service complements physical rehabilitation, helping clients overcome psychological barriers to peak performance in sports and daily activities.
