Osteopath in Horsham

Osteopathy is a well-established system of diagnosis and treatments recognised by the British Medical Association. It is recognised as a 'discrete clinical discipline'. Osteopathy places emphasis on structural and mechanical problems the body encounters. It seeks to overcome a wide range of conditions, disabilities and pains that result from disturbances of the body's framework and moving parts.

What Can Osteopathy Treat?

Any pain is a symptom of an underlying problem and should be diagnosed and where appropriate treated with Osteopathy. The most commonly treated conditions are:

• Back pain - e.g. sciatic irritation, disc injuries

• Headaches

• Joint pains - e.g. arthritis in hands, hips, knees etc

• Migraines

• Muscle strains

• Neck and shoulder pains

• Sporting injuries etc

• Structural problems in pregnancy

What Do Osteopaths Do?

Working with their hands, Osteopathic treatments consist of soft-tissue massages, gentle circulation and passive mobilisation techniques to the affected joints. A series of stretches and exercises are formulated, tailored to benefit the particular issue, and then closely monitored.

An Osteopath will diagnose and treat faults in your body’s mechanical system and through the practice of Osteopathy get the body to function as efficiently as possible.

Why Go and See An Osteopath?

As Osteopath considers every patient as a unique case and will develop treatment regime that is tailored to the individual. Osteopathic treatments are designed to correct each patient’s mechanical problem to best stimulate their own natural healing processes. Osteopaths have a comprehensive approach, in order to consider all factors which may be contributing to a disruption in good health
