About Me
I qualified from the British School of Osteopathy in London in 2005. I have over 19 years of experience practicing in several multi disciplinary clinics and GP practices. I enjoy working with all age ranges from babies, expectant mothers, children and adults. I use both structural and cranial musculoskeletal techniques. I work in West Sussex.
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathic treatment involves manual therapy – a range of gentle hands-on techniques that focus on releasing tension, stretching muscles and improving mobility – together with exercises and helpful advice designed to help you relieve or manage your pain, keep active and maintain the best of health. (IO)
Osteopaths are highly trained Allied Health Professionals who are well known for their expertise in the evaluation, diagnosis and management of the entire musculoskeletal system and its relationship with other systems in the body (IO)
Osteopaths have a well-deserved, evidence-based reputation for expertise in the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, such as back, neck, joint, muscle and arthritic discomfort.
People also visit osteopaths for a variety of other health reasons including neuromuscular conditions such as sciatica, digestive issues, headaches and migraine prevention. (IO)
