Osteopathy is a hands-on, holistic approach to healthcare. Osteopaths diagnose a range of injuries and physcial complaints, based on detailed case history taking, and thorough physical assessments.

They offer highly individualised treatment plans that include a combination of joint manipulation, muscle stretching, soft tissue massage, exercise prescription, and rehabilitation advice.

Osteopaths are highly qualified healthcare professionals, regulated by the General Osteopathic Council, and fully recognised by the NHS.

Sports massage is the application of advanced massage techniques for use with the prevention, maintenance and rehabilitation of sporting injuries. Sports massage therapists are skilled in the assessment of musculoskeletal injuries.

Sports massage helps alleviate the stress and tension that builds up in the body’s soft tissues during physical activity. The massage will help prepare the athlete for peak performance, drain away fatigue, relieve swelling, reduce muscle tension, promote flexibility and prevent injuries.

It is also effective on injuries not incurred through sports such as day to day work related aches and pains.

Medical acupuncture is a modern adaptation of the ancient Chinese practice of acupuncture. It is defined as a therapeutic technique that involves the insertion of fine needles into certain points across the body to encourage healing and pain relief.

Acupuncture is effective in a range of painful conditions and is commonly used for short-term relief of chronic low back pain and neck pain, and can help with knee pain caused by osteoarthritis.

There is good evidence that it is effective in the short term relief of tension type headaches and migraine, and of temporomandibular (jaw joint) pain.
