About Osteopathy #01

What is Osteopathy ?

Osteopathy is a safe and natural approach to healthcare. It focuses on the musculo-skeletal system (the bones, muscles, ligaments and connective tissue) and the way in which this inter-relates to the body as a whole.

At the Bounds Green Osteopathic Clinic we believe in th ethos of a hands on approach. The osteopaths use soft and deep tissue massage, stretches, joint mobilisations, manipulations and various other techniques to gently and safely bring about healthy changes.

What do Osteopaths Treat?

Many conditions benefit from osteopathic treatment. However, you do not need to be in pain to visit an osteopath. You may require postural alignment due to imbalances caused by either occupatonal or recreational activities, or even to release tension that has built up in your body as a consequence of stress. The list below indicates which problems are most commonly treated at the Bounds Green Osteopathic Clinic.

  • Back pain or stiffness

  • Postural Imbalance

  • Headaches

  • Sciatica

  • Joint Disorders

  • Neck pain and stiffness

  • Sports injuries

  • Muscular strains and sprains

    The osteopaths are always happy to speak to individuals regarding their specific conditions.
