What is Osteopathy?

Arjun Mehra, osteopath and physiotherapist, providing hands-on treatment to a patient

Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions. It considers the relationship between the musculoskeletal system and other systems of the body, and how changes in function may influence movement, comfort and symptoms.

Osteopaths use touch, soft tissue techniques, stretching, joint mobilisation and manipulation to help improve joint mobility, reduce muscle tension, influence circulation and nerve function, and support the body's natural healing processes.

Osteopathy also encourages people to take an active role in their recovery. Treatment may be supported by exercise, rehabilitation and advice around movement, posture and lifestyle, helping you stay active and reduce the likelihood of symptoms recurring.
