Osteopathy, it’s not just for when you are sore!

Day to day we can have a lot of stress in our lives and we love to hold on tight to this stress in our bodies. We may not even feel a slow build-up of tension, as we adapt and create compensation patterns which can show up at really inopportune times.

I recommend regular treatment as part of a big-picture maintenance plan for keeping your body feeling good and moving forward.

Why?

• Can help prevent injury.

• Maintain flexibility and mobility.

• Manage existing conditions such as persistent pain, headaches, lower back pain, breathing dysfunction, desk-bound posture

• Keep you more body aware.

• It makes you feel good!

How often should you have maintenance treatment?

It depends on your body and its unique makeup. Maintenance treatments should not be a source of stress so I take a what works best for you approach, this could be anything between  2 to 8 weeks. Getting into this routine also tends to encourage people to get injuries seen to quicker. Taking a wait-and-see approach to injury can sometimes lead to longer recovery time.
