Osteopathy is unique and highly effective treatment taking into account your whole self in finding and treating damaged parts of the body such as muscles, ligaments, nerves and joints.
An Osteopathic treatment is composed of massage, soft tissue techniques and gentle manipulation which will guide and encourage your body to regain its natural position, thus promoting your own bodies ability to heal. It does not have to include bone crunching and our Osteopath will outline the best treatment protocol for you plus a stretch and exercise rehabilitation guide.
Upon your first visit you will undertake a health screening process so that our Osteopath can try to understand the root cause of your problems, you may find, at times, that where you are experiencing the pain is not actually where the problem begins. Depending on the site of the pain the removal of clothes may be required to effectively diagnose and treat the area. This is very important so that quick, cost effective healing can take place.
When your body is balanced and efficient, just like a well tuned engine, it will function with the minimum of wear and tear, leaving you with more energy for living. Problems commonly arise in the musculoskeletal system through injury, disease or abuse and misuse.
Osteopathy can treat:
• Spinal Pain
• Neck pain
• Headaches
• Arthritis and other joint inflammatory conditions
• Pregnancy symptoms
• Sports Injuries, tendonitis and muscle strains
First Appointment 60 minutes - £40

A highly professional experience. Being a very keen cyclist, covering over 100 miles a week, I had developed an uncomfortable crick in my neck, making it very uncomfortable to turn and look over my left shoulder and move my left ear towards my left shoulder (looking right was fine as I spend most of my time looking out for traffice this side). I saw Laurence for 2 Osteopathic treatments and was amazed at the range of movement I now have again. I am able to look, pain free, with no crunching noises, over both shoulders. I no longer have to rotate my whole body to look left, I no longer get the burning sensation in my left shoulder and neck and I am able to sleep more soundly. Laurence gave me some homework to do (simple stretches that I could easily incorporate into my everyday life) and suggested I only come back when I felt it was necessary, not every week for the the next 3 months, like some other back care specialists I have seen.
The whole experience, from the moment I walked (painfully) through the door, to the moment I left (pain free) was excellent, I cannot reccommend Laurence enough.
