Would you like aches and pains to be a thing of the past? Come and see us at our friendly and professional Osteopathic and Massage Therapy clinic tucked away in an oasis of calm in the heart of the city, just near to Blackfriars Station. We specialises in obstetrics (pregnancy), paediatrics (babies) and also work related musculo-skeletal disorders such as repetitive strain injuries, neck and back pain. What is Osteopathy? Osteopathy is a primary health care system, complementary to other medical practices. It is suitable for almost anyone and can contribute to the treatment and management of a wide range of problems. Primarily osteopaths work through the neuro-musculo-skeletal system, mostly on muscles, joints and fascia, using a holistic and patient-centred approach. Osteopaths must be registered with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsc) in order to practice and call themselves an Osteopath. Patients may be referred by their doctor, or may opt to see an Osteopath independently. Please feel free to call us for a free and informal chat to see if we may be able to help you.
