Osteopathy uses a wide variety of gentle hands-on techniques that focus on releasing tension, improving mobility and optimizing function, together with providing useful health advice and exercise if required.

Osteopathy is based on the principle that the structure and function of the body are intimately related. If the structure is not balanced and healthy then the function is affected. Osteopathy works under the principle that there may be a number of contributing factors to the symptoms and will therefore we evaluate not only the area which is producing the symptoms, but also associated areas that may be contributing to the issue, including past trauma, environmental factors and the family’s health history.

Most people come to see an osteopathic manual practitioner because they are in physical pain, feel disharmony within their body, feel disempowered within their health and want to feel freedom, ease, joy and love for their body temple, health and wellbeing, whilst connecting back to their inner strength and power.

Fascia is a term to describe the 'skin under the skin'. It is interconnected, woven around our muscles, organs and bones and is connected to our nervous systems. When we engage in repetitive movements like running, weight training, sitting for long periods of time, and even stressful life experiences, can all lead to adhesions in the fascia, leading to limited range of motion of our joints and ...

Fascia is a term to describe the 'skin under the skin'. It is interconnected, woven around our muscles, organs and bones and is connected to our nervous systems. When we engage in repetitive movements like running, weight training, sitting for long periods of time, and even stressful life experiences, can all lead to adhesions in the fascia, leading to limited range of motion of our joints and internal organ systems (think stiffness and pain!). This non-invasive approach mobilizes your whole body, especially your glutes, hamstrings and lower back, and serves as a calming tool to regulate your nervous system. In other words, it will help to calm any anxiety you may have and leave you feeling stretched, mobile and pain free! I recommend it for anyone who works out, sits for long periods of time and/or experiences chronic anxiety and stress.
