Make sure your joints and bones are healthy at all times

WHAT IS OSTEOPATHY?

Osteopathy is a safe, recognised manual therapy for both diagnosis and treatment of primarily musculoskeletal conditions which takes the whole person's health into account. It aims to improve your general health as well as provide relief for specific conditions.

During your first consultation, Fiona will take a full case history of both your medical health and current symptoms. She will then conduct a physical examination including essential orthopaedic and neurological tests. After a thorough evaluation of your posture, movement and the tone of your body tissues, she will arrive at a diagnosis and discuss an individual treatment plan with you. 

What does treatment involve?

Treatment involves a carefully selected combination of techniques including soft tissue massage, joint mobilisations, gentle stretches and manipulation. All treatments are individually tailored and carried out according to your needs. Advice will be given on posture and how to prevent future problems, as well as exercises to do at home.
