Osteopaths treat injuries of the whole musculoskeletal system including the pelvis, spine, ribs, neck, hips, legs, knees, ankles, feet, shoulders, arms, elbows, wrists and hands and even the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) for jaw misalignment. By manually correcting the imbalance of the musculoskeletal system, nerve interference's are removed, allowing the structure and the organs of the body to function normally.
 

Osteopaths treat all muscles and all joints of the body including the supporting tendons, ligaments, and fascia. Osteopaths also treat constitutional problems such as headaches, migraines, TMJ syndrome, constipation and other digestive disorders.

 

Injuries and dysfunction can occur from sports such as soccer, football, basketball or skiing, incorrect lifting at work in the gym or garden, from falls off horses and bikes, from bad workstations or poor posture, simply too much time at the computer, slouching in the car or relaxing at home.

 

Osteopaths not only treat acute injuries but many pain syndromes that Osteopaths treat are chronic in nature being cumulative result of gradual deterioration, a sum total of the above factors. Eventually, your musculoskeletal system can reach the point that triggers protective muscle guarding (muscle spasm) and joints seize and become painful.

 

Therefore, Osteopaths not only treat specific injuries but incorporate a holistic approach to better health and well-being.
