How can Osteopath help me?

Osteopathy is a holistic approach to health care that looks at the body as a whole

If you are suffering from back pain, there are many advantages associated with visiting an osteopath. Osteopathy is a holistic approach to health care that looks at the body as a whole and uses gentle manual manipulation techniques to relieve pain and improve functionality. An osteopath will take their time to understand your individual circumstances, taking into consideration your lifestyle, stress levels and other factors before coming up with a tailored treatment plan for you. 


Having a professional treatment plan is especially important for those with chronic back pain, as it can be more difficult to resolve without targeted guidance. Osteopathic treatments involve manual massage and stretching of the muscles, joints and ligaments to increase circulation and reduce tension, help with reducing inflammation, relieving pressure points and improving joint alignment. In addition, osteopaths may also provide postural advice, lifestyle tips and simple exercises to aid in recovery. 


Overall, an osteopath offers a safe and effective solution for those struggling with back pain. By working together in partnership with a qualified practitioner, you can make an informed decision on how best to manage the issue and ensure long-term relief.


Why go and see an Osteopath


Osteopathy is a natural, non-invasive form of healthcare that helps to reduce and eliminate pain by restoring normal joint and tissue mobility. It works by viewing the whole body holistically and treating the source of the problem instead of just addressing the symptoms. 


An osteopath can help you be free from pain by using a variety of techniques including soft tissue massage and manipulation, to realign the structure of joints and muscles.


How long will it take? 


The amount of time it will take for you to be in less pain depends on several factors such as the severity of your condition, the general state of your health, and how your body responds to treatment. 


Generally speaking, however, most people who seek osteopathic care notice a significant degree of relief within four treatments. 

Your osteopath will work with you to determine what type of treatment plan and timeline is best for your individual needs.
