Emma Broom Registered Osteopath

Based on the principle that the body has the ability to heal itself, osteopathic care aims to strengthen the musculoskeletal systems, treating existing conditions and preventing further injury. Every treatment is tailored to the individual patient.

Using a highly developed sense of touch (palpation), a variety of manipulative techniques can be applied to work with the tension in the tissues of the body to affect the position of the bones.

Treatment involves stretching, massage and physical manipulation with the aim of increasing the mobility of joints, relieving muscle tension, enhancing the blood supply to tissues and so helping the body to heal.
