Treatments
Osteopathy combines joint mobilisation and articulation, soft tissue and massage treatment with rehabilitation, so you’ll be supported through your recovery both inside and outside the treatment room. At your appointment, we’ll take a case history and ask you questions about your symptoms, your health and lifestyle. We offer neurological and orthopaedic assessment, provide diagnosis and evidence-based treatment for a broad range of chronic and acute musculoskeletal and neurological conditions including sports injuries, joint pain including osteoarthritis, tension headaches, disc injuries, sciatica and pre/postnatal care.
Tailored treatment will address your symptoms as well as considering your general health, your body’s patterns of movement and the activities you do, to help you get back to feeling to your best.
Rehabilitation is at the core of effective osteopathic treatment - whether you need help with a specific injury, or want to manage a recurring pattern of pain or postural discomfort - everything we work on together in the treatment room will support what you do between appointments.
Please note Paediatric appointments for babies and children aged 0-17 are only available with Emilie.
Osteopathy
Sports / Deep Tissue Massage
Massage targets areas of tension and fatigue that may have built up through physical activity or the strains of daily life.
This is a targeted, remedial treatment which will address specific areas of tension and discomfort, improving blood flow and aiding recovery. It’s particularly useful if you are training regularly, increasing your usual training or have an event coming up. . It’s best to allow at least five days between a sports massage and your marathon or other big event. Please note K-tape is only available with Lily.
Please do not book this appointment if you have an injury, if your movements are restricted or painful, or you have any neurological symptoms. Please book an Osteopathy appointment where we will be able to carry out an assessment, make a diagnosis and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
Medical/Western Acupuncture
This technique involves inserting very fine needles into the body to stimulate sensory nerves in the skin and muscle. This can effect endorphins and serotonin levels, relieving pain in areas of muscular discomfort.
We include medical acupuncture as part of any Osteopathy appointment when appropriate, so there is no need to book a separate appointment for this treatment. Please note acupunture is only available with Lily or Emilie.
Oncology Osteopathy & Massage
If you are going through cancer treatment please book with Emilie. She is qualified to provide treatment at every step following a cancer diagnosis, whether you are in active treatment, recovery or beyond.
Treatment can help to positively effect sleep, alleviate some of the side effects of cancer treatment, and can be useful in helping regain mobility after a mastectomy or other intervention. It can also help alleviate peripheral neuropathy associated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and support your return to exercise following cancer treatment. Read more about this treatment here.
