What is Osteopathy

Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. It works with the structure and function of the body, and is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues functioning smoothly together.

Quick facts about osteopathy

  2. Osteopaths are primary health care practitioners, therefore are able to refer for further tests if needed such as X-rays and MRI’s.
  3. Osteopathic intervention can help you recover from back pain, headaches, tennis elbow, shoulder dysfunction and postural problems to name just a few.
  4. Treatment can also help with nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic symptoms.
