How does stuart use osteopathy to treat patients?
Osteopathic sessions offer a safe and natural approach to treating discomfort, using manual (hands-on) techniques to alleviate pain and improve function. Mobilising joints, stretching muscles and ligaments, using soft tissue work, and prescribing exercises, can:
- Increase the mobility of joints
- Relieve pain and muscle tension
- Enhance the blood supply to tissues
- Help the body to heal
- Optimise physical function
My approach involves explaining the source of your pain, making a tailored management plan, and showing you specific exercises to keep you on track between sessions.
My aim is to relieve your current pain and enhance your general mobility - improving your resilience for the future.
