Osteopathy is a distinct and complete system of health care which places special emphasis on the importance of body mechanics in maintaining health. it uses diagnostic skills to detect and manipulative techniques to correct faulty body structure.

What conditions can benefit from Osteopathy?

• Joint pain and stiffness
• muscle aches
• headaches
• sciatic pain and other nerve compressions
• postural problems
• whiplash

When osteopaths examine babies and children areas of tension may be found in the spine or head which indicate that they are uncomfortable. A baby cannot complain of backache or headache, and will typically express this by crying and being unsettled or irritable. Children are able to express discomfort but not always accurately.

Gentle manipulation could help soothe and relax such discomfort.
