Particularly proficient at diagnosing and dealing with backache, osteopaths also attend to conditions ranging from carpal tunnel and frozen shoulder, to Irritable Bowl Syndrome and sinusitis. A variety of techniques are used to improve mobility, reduce swelling and restore function to all parts of the body. Minor sports injuries can be treated to speed recovery and advice given to avoid further injury. Cranial technique, an extremely gentle approach, can benefit all ages, from the most precious new born babies through all stages of life. All ages can benefit from osteopathy, from babies to self-employed tradesmen who can't afford to miss a day's work, to the active retired who want to make the most of their time. Osteopaths help millions of people every year and, just as we service our cars, a regular check up with the osteopath could help maintain a healthy body. Ailments of ageing can be significantly improved by the therapeutic approach of osteopathy.
