Osteopathy is a hands-on system of health care that acknowledges the body’s ability to heal itself. Using hands on treatment osteopaths address the causes of your musculoskeletal complaint or injury.
A thorough knowledge of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics is essential in understanding how the body structure can affect its function.
At Be Well Clinic, we love to find out “WHY?” you are experiencing pain or problems. In order to provide you with an accurate diagnosis, we often require detailed information about your ailment and aspects of your lifestyle, so we can treat your body as a ‘whole’.
Treatment may involve techniques to bones and muscles, but also fascia and connective tissue, ligaments and membranes, and the circulatory and nervous systems. We love to address the cause of the problem and not just treat symptoms.
In an effort to stop problems returning, we may give advice on exercises, posture, or your work station setup.
The more involved you can be in your recovery and healing, the more likely you will maintain your new, more comfortable body!
