What is Osteopathy? It’s a medical practice based on a drug-free non-invasive manual therapy. As an approach to healthcare, it emphasises the role of the musculoskeletal system in the maintenance of optimal health and the prevention and treatment of illness.

It is underpinned by a philosophy of the body as an interrelated unit of structure and function. Alteration in the structure of the body leads to reduced or impaired function in its organs and tissues. Compensation gradually builds up until the body is unable to accommodate more change, at which time it may break down at the weakest part, even after something quite trivial.

Osteopaths therefore focus on manual techniques to balance all the systems of the body, rather than focus on isolated problem areas. These therapeutic interventions facilitate the patient’s inherent recuperative powers.

Osteopathy in Practice

Osteopathy is a ‘hands on’ manual therapy which takes into account a patient’s personal and medical history. In combination with dietary, postural and occupational advice as well as counselling, it is a practical and effective treatment for the treatment of a range of illnesses and injuries and also assists in the ongoing management of pain and disease.

By paying attention to the significance of any change in structure or function (the joints, muscles, ligaments, bones and connective tissue) an osteopath is able to interpret whole patterns of aches, pains and general health problems.

Headaches, for example, are the final symptom of lower back or foot related problems. An osteopath therefore will find and treat the underlying cause of the problem rather than treat the symptoms of a problem with drugs and medication. Osteopathy can be helpful in the management of: acute and chronic pain, back and neck pain, joint pain and stiffness, headaches and migraine, knee, hip and ankle arthritic pain, muscle ache/pain/spasm/cramps/stiffness, sciatica, lumbago, frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel syndrome, rheumatic pain, pins and needles, numbness, trapped nerves, neuralgia, and bursitis. Other problems: asthma and chest complaints, period pain, congested sinuses/sinusitis, circulatory problems, stress and fatigue, digestive disorders, .Common trauma/injuries: postural/occupational strain, lifting strains, whiplash/car injuries, spinal disc injuries, repetitive strain injury. Baby/child problems: newborn checkup, ear infections/glue ear, infantile colic, behavioural problems, aches and pains, asthma/chest infections,. Discomforts of pregnancy: aches and pains, heartburn, breathing difficulties.

Osteopathy is a manual therapy that doesn’t simply look at presenting symptoms. Osteopaths believe that symptoms often hide the underlying cause of disease.By paying attention to the significance of any alteration in structure or function (the joints, muscles, ligaments, bones and connective tissue), an osteopath is able to interpret whole patterns of aches, pains and general health problems.Alteration in the structure of the body leads to reduced or impaired function in the organs and tissues. Compensation gradually builds up until the body is unable to accommodate more change, at which time it may break down at the weakest part – even as a result of something quite trivial.Headaches, for example, could be the final symptom of lower-back or foot-related problems of which the patient may not even be aware. Osteopathic patients benefit because the underlying cause of the problem is treated.Osteopathic treatment can improve many parts of the body by restoring normal movement in areas that have become dysfunctional. This allows for the restoration of normal function and enables the tissues to repair themselves more naturally.While immediate pain relief is an important consideration, the aim of osteopathy is to get patients well and to keep them well. Therefore, depending on the needs of the patient, treatment may be used in conjunction with other treatment methods such as medication, surgery, and X-rays.
