Osteopathy treat of a wide variety of musculo-skeletal problems, but it also has a role to play in the management of a number of other conditions. The most common complaints for which patients consult Osteopaths include:
- back and neck pain,
- sciatica,
- headaches,
- pains in peripheral joints such as shoulders, knees and ankles, tendinitis and muscle strains,
- work-related and repetitive strain injuries, and
- sports-related injuries.
However, Osteopathy can also play a significant role in pain management or when used in conjunction with medical treatment.
Many mothers-to-be find Osteopathic treatment very beneficial both to reduce back pain during pregnancy and also to help prepare the body for birth. In addition, there is a wide variety of gentle non-manipulative techniques for use on infants and small children.
