Osteopathy/Cranial Osteopathy
|
Osteopathy is a system of treatment based on the simple idea that if the structure of the body is not right,then the body will not work properly. Osteopathy specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of structural disorders of the body. Gentle manual treatment to the joints and soft tissues is used to normalise their position, mobility and tone,thereby allowing normal function and the stimulation of the bodies own healing properties.
CRANIAL OSTEOPATHY (The Involuntary Mechanism)
Cranial Osteopathy is a branch of Osteopathy. The Osteopath is trained to sense the motion within the bones of the skull,or the cranium. Cranial techniques are extremely gentle and can be used on young babies, children, the elderly, and people suffering from the chronic effects of trauma, such as whiplash. More and more babies and children are benefitting from this approach, which can also prevent problems developing in later life.
Osteopathy is best known for treating low back pain, neck pain and other spinal problems.
But did you know it is also helpful for other joint disorders? For example:
foot, ankle and knee pain
rib pain
shoulder pain - including 'frozen shoulder'
elbow and wrist pain
Many other problems can be helped:
asthma
sinusitis
adhesions
vertigo and tinnitus
Childrens problems can be helped too:
sleep disorders
colic
glue ear
'growing pains'
cerebral palsy
