Osteopathy works with the structure and function of the body, and is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues functioning smoothly.  

 

Osteopaths work to restore your body to a state of balance, where possible wihout the use of drugs or surgery. Using touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massaging, they increase the mobility of joints to relieve muscle tension, to enhance the blood and nerve supply to the tissues.
