Osteopaths consider each person as an individual. Utilising a highly developed sense of touch, they identify problem areas in the body. Using gentle stretching, mobilising and manipulative techniques, an osteopath works with the body to improve function and create the perfect conditions to facilitate the healing process. At Usk Osteopathy, a caring approach and attention to the individual is considered particularly important. Our aim is to not only alleviate your current symptoms, but to identify and correct any factors that may be the underlying cause of your problem, so that we can prevent it from reoccurring. After treatment, we can advise on maintaining a realistic level of health and avoiding those things which might be damaging. For example, remedial exercises to adjust posture or advice on diet and lifestyle can be given as part of a personal health care programme.
