Gentle Touch Osteopathic Practice

Gentle osteopathic treatment for the whole family from expectant mothers and newborn to adults.

I use mainly very gentle and subtle techniques commonly known as "cranial" osteopathy to help the body function to the best of it's ability. Where appropriate I will also use soft tissue techniques (similar to massage) and some manipulation (the "click" often associated with osteopathic treatment), but this is entirely with your consent. My aim is to look for any areas of the body that are not working as well as they could do, due to tension, twists, compression, injury or compensation for other injuries, which may be leading to pain or discomfort.

People with a wide range of problems can be helped by osteopathy. If you aren't sure whether it could help you or your child, please get in touch!
