Osteopathy aims to boost one's overall health & wellbeing by promoting your bodies natural healing abilities.  

 

Osteopaths are university trained for a minimum of 4.5 years to use a combination of orthopedic assessment, range of motion testing, postural assessments to formulate a treatment plan that is tailored to each individual's needs. 

The osteopath applies their knowledge in anatomy, physiology, pathology, nutrition, medical diagnosis and osteopathic techniques to address underlying source of chronic and acute pain and injuries and the effect they have on the body as a whole.
