Osteopathy involves manipulating the bones and joints of the body for theraputic benefit - i.e. for the release of pain and repair of injuries.

Because we work with bones and joints, osteopathy is particularly appropriate for back pain, postural alignment and related problems like sciatica.

Many aches and pains are rooted in muscle and joint tightness or restriction of motion and can be effectively treated with osteopathy.
