Osteopathy at Pure Moves

 

Osteopathic treatment recognises the importance of the link between the structure of the human body and the way it functions, and so focuses on the body's skeleton and joint function, along with the underlying muscles, soft tissue and internal organs.

Treatment usually consists of a combination of gentle soft tissue releasing techniques, along with specific adjustments and manipulation of affected joints. It is highly personalised to the individual and aims to work with the body to create the perfect conditions to facilitate the healing process.

Osteopathy can help with the following conditions:

Back and neck: Sciatica, ‘slipped’ discs, whiplash injury, muscle and ligament strains, stiffness Joints: Arthritis, joint hyper-mobility, joint sprains, carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder Sports injuries: Muscle strains/tears, tendinitis, ‘golfers/tennis’ elbow Infant and children’s health: Colic, reflux, feeding problems, crying, sleeping disorders Headaches and migraine Postural problems Respiratory problems: Sinusitis, asthma Work-related injuries: Repetitive strain injuries, ergonomic problems Digestive problems

Osteopaths undertake a rigorous 4-5 year medical degree in order to acquire and maintain their registration with their statutory body, the General Osteopathic Council.
