Osteopathy is a recommended approach to healthcare, based on
a well established system
of clinical diagnosis
........................................................
Osteopaths work primarily through the neuro-musculo-skeletal system to improve the function and overall health of the body, using natural, gentle and manual techniques, osteopaths are very effective in releasing the tension and restrictions that are causing pain and dysfunction.
By appreciating the integrative nature of the body, we can determine the root cause of a problem and work through
any compensatory patterns, rather than focusing on just treating the symptoms.
Founded by Dr Andrew Taylor Still in 1874, Osteopathy has developed into one of the world’s leading alternative healthcare approaches. Still's interpretation of cause and effect in the evolution of disease gives osteopathy a very special place in the history of healthcare.
"when all parts of the body
are in line, we have health"
In the UK there are 4600 registered osteopaths, carrying out over seven million consultations every year.

The British Medical Association’s guidance for general practitioners states that doctors can
safely refer patients to osteopaths.
NICE (the National Institute of Clinical Excellence) guidelines recommend manipulative therapies like osteopathy for the treatment of low back pain.
