A common misconception is that Osteopaths only deal with back pain. Back pain in Britain is the nation's greatest single cause of lost working days and whilst this does account for a large proportion of the cases seen by Osteopaths, we actually treat problems from head to foot. Because treatment is individual to the patient, it is suitable for all ages from babies to the elderly and can be very helpful during and after pregnancy.
Osteopathy may also be of great value in the treatment of the following:
Body pains
Like Sciatica, neck/shoulder problems, headaches/migraines, tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, carpel tunnel syndrome, childhood growing pains
Injuries
Like sports injuries, knee/ankle injuries, muscular/ligamentous sprains, repetitive strain injuries
Other Conditions
Like sinus problems, arthritis, postural problems, asthma, menstrual problems, pregnancy, infantile colic
