Osteopathy

Osteopathic Treatments Osteopathy Brookmans Park Osteos

Osteopaths know all about pain and treat more than just backs and necks! From toes to fingers, knees to wrists, we are trained to treat the whole body. The majority of our patients come to us for back and neck pain, but if pain is in your life, you need to talk to us because osteopathy might help you.

We also don’t just click backs! We work on ligaments, muscles, tendons, joints … in fact we look at the whole body. As osteopaths we like to find the cause of your discomfort, treat your injury at the source, and help to prevent it occurring in the future. We assess and treat you as an individual and tailor our treatment and exercise plans to your needs. We always inform you of how we will treat. We will obtain your permission and consent before ‘clicking’ or using acupuncture.  With us you will feel secure and can completely relax feeling safe in our hands.  

Osteopathic treatments use a combination of techniques like massage, articulation and manipulation. Below (the Diagnostic Ultrasound section) on this page, you will see we offer alongside osteopathy treatments: **Sports Massage **Medical Acupuncture **Kinesiology taping **Exercise rehabilitation** and a lot more

We will probably use these techniques anyway, but if you would  like us to incorporate any one of these into your treatment, just write it in the notes or comments box in the online booking form.  Or mention it at your appointment with your osteopath. We are happy to use any or all of these to make you better!  We can also refer you for MRI scans, X-ray, DEXA scans (and of course diagnostic ultrasound here at this clinic!)

Whether you are 2, 22 or 99 years old there are likely to be things we can do to get you back on your feet. And if you’re not sure whether we can help, book a free 20 minute consultation.  We will help you work out what to do with your pain.. We look forward to helping you become pain free.
