PROFESSIONAL EXCELLENCE IN OSTEOPATHIC HEALTHCARE

A caring team of Osteopaths offering treatment 6 days a week with evening appointments available – based in Nailsworth, Stroud, Gloucestershire.

During your first appointment your Osteopath will take a detailed case history, discuss your symptoms and give you his/her diagnosis. Osteopathy not only involves manual techniques but also gives good advice on lifestyle to avoid future problems. The White Practice takes a pro-active approach to healthcare – prevention rather than cure is our aim.

Reduce Stress and Self-Heal

Osteopathy is a system of manual healthcare, which works by reducing excessive muscle tone in areas of the body where there is tension and improving the mobility of joints that have become restricted and painful. Osteopathy works on the principle that given a normal uninterrupted blood, lymph and nerve supply the body can function efficiently and is capable of self healing.

A variety of Osteopathic techniques

The Osteopath uses a variety of techniques ranging from soft tissue massage, stretching, joint articulation and mobilisation, high velocity thrusts, and very gentle cranio-sacral work involving the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. The Osteopath will choose the appropriate techniques to facilitate your recovery.
