As we have all experienced, the body has a natural ability to repair its own tissues. However, poor posture, repetitive lifting, pregnancy, trauma or age-related changes, may cause damage to the body and compromise its capacity to self-heal.

Osteopaths believe that structural changes in the body cause dysfunction and pain. Through careful examination of a person’s biomechanics the osteopath evaluates the changes. Using a variety of safe, gentle, manual techniques, osteopaths improve the structure and mobility of the body, restoring its function and easing pain.

A treatment plan, appropriate to each individual is then applied restoring the body’s natural healing abilities.
