Our Services
We are dedicated to providing our community with high quality health care and well- being support. Currently we offer osteopathy, sports massage, dry needling and kinesology taping. But we hope to expand our services soon to offer reflexology, acupuncture, massage and counselling.
Osteopathy
Osteopathy helps your body move more comfortably. Using gentle hands-on techniques, an osteopath eases tight muscles, improves joint movement, and supports your body’s natural ability to heal itself. It’s commonly used for back pain, neck discomfort, headaches, and everyday aches.
Osteopathy is a hands- on manual therapy that takes the body into consideration as a whole; in order to find the root of the problem and not just treat the symptoms. Osteopaths believe that the body is a unit and not a set of individual systems functioning independently of one another. Therefore, pain felt in one area may be caused by another area or body part. It is our job to get to the root of your discomfort and address the cause not just the symptoms.
Treatment involves gentle joint articulation, manipulation, soft tissue massage and stretching in order to improve mobility, reduce discomfort and restore balance to the body.
Treatment is personalised to the patient taking into consideration their symptoms, medical history and treatment preferences. Often exercises and advice are given to support treatment for patients to complete at home.
Sports Massage
Sports massage isn’t just for athletes! It is a form of deep tissue massage aimed at relieving muscle tension, improving circulation, enhancing muscle function and recovery. It also helps to ease muscle soreness and can help reduce the risk of injury. It is great for those training for an up-coming event to aid recovery from those long sessions and help prevent injury where muscles are tightening and fatigued from accumulative training load.
Dry Needling
Dry needling or Western Medical Acupuncture uses small, very fine, sterile needles inserted into soft tissues to help relieve pain and reduce tension and improve movement. It is quick, gentle and most people find it very comfortable. It is commonly used in treatment of shoulder and back pain as well as repetitive strain injuries such as tennis elbow.
Dry needling can be booked as a stand alone treatment or incorporated into an osteopathy treatment.
Kinesiology Taping
Kinesiology taping is the muscle taping you often see athletes wearing at big sporting events. This tape is thin and very flexible allowing full range of movement in the area it is applied (often when it is favoured by competing athletes). It helps support the muscle, improving blood supply and drainage, reduces pain and can help reduce swelling. It is most-commonly used as an adjunct to osteopathy or sports massage to help support joints and muscles following treatment and to aid recovery.
