Yes you can. You do not need to be in pain to see an Osteopath. Prevention is better than cure so whether or not you would like reassurance that everything is moving ok to prevent a reoccurring complaint or because you have a demanding job or you are a new parent and need a little bit of TLC or would like a general check up of your baby after labour we can offer some treatment.
Optimal health depends on good circulation of fluids and free impulse of nerves. Restrictions in the joints or tension in the tissues can prevent optimal health. GOT (General Osteopathic Treatment) is a very holistic treatment approach that can help restore mobility and function of the whole body.
Osteopathy and Massage is a complete treatment using GOT combined with deep soft tissue massage techniques aiming to reduce joint stiffness or restrictions that may prevent good circulation of fluids and improve function of the nervous system to help encourage the whole body’s self-healing mechanism to reach it’s optimal potential.
We use specific and tailored soft tissue techniques and continuous and rhythmic articulatory techniques to mobilise all the joints in the body in a specific order. HVT (high velocity thrust techniques), which is mobilisation of the joint with an audible “click) can also be used with patient’s consent. For treatment on babies we mainly use cranial treatment as well as gentle articulation techniques.
