Osteopaths treat muscle and joint pain anywhere in the body using a range of specialised hands-on techniques, including massage, joint manipulation, trigger-point therapy, stretching and exercise prescription. We adopt a holistic approach, applying the principle that a person's well-being depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues working smoothly together. We treat the whole body and not just the painful area, tackling the cause and not just the symptoms, and our overall aim is to restore the optimal functioning of the body and alleviate pain.
We'll take a detailed medical history, carry out a biomechanic assessment and diagnose the cause of your pain.
Your osteopathic treatment will involve a range of specialised hands-on techniques, including massage, joint manipulation, trigger-point therapy, stretching and acupuncture.
We'll always provide advice for self-treatment, exercise prescription and lifestyle or training modifications, to maximise improvement between sessions.
We'll discuss how you've responded to treatment, conduct a brief assessment and then determine the most appropriate ways to progress your recovery.
Barry was a great help when my back and hip seized up after a 16 hour charity walk. He really helped release the tension and relieve pain. This was my second appointment and I would highly recommend The Moving Body.
