The Greenhill Practice - 01789 267888

A long established osteopathy service for the local community and beyond

As osteopaths we aim to adopt a thorough, caring and wholistic approach to your health and physical well being. Osteopaths do not look on patients as e.g. just back pain sufferers, but rather as individuals with their own unique requirements for health. Treatment is directed to restore as much normal biomechanical function as possible and, in combination with specific advice and exercise, to engage the body's own natural healing processes.

Osteopaths do not simply treat the symptoms but also try to identify as many of those factors contributing to a disturbed state of natural health as is possible. In practice many people will consult an osteopath complaining of common musculo-skeletal conditions affecting muscles, joints and nerves e.g. low back pain, lumbago, sciatica, frozen shoulder, knee pain as well as arthritic pain and muscle stiffness or spasm.

Osteopaths are often able to play a role in aspects of the management of other more chronic conditions, especially those conditions which have effects on the musculo-skeletal system. Injuries caused by sporting activities and work related disorders are also areas where osteopaths may have a role and many patients find treatment can reduce the after effects of stresses imposed on the body by e.g. both pregnancy and childbirth
