What Is Osteopathy
Osteopathy is described as a therapeutic manual medicine that addresses entire body health through treatment of the musculoskeletal system.
Osteopathy focuses on structures such as our muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints and connective tissue as well as nerves and circulation to achieve the best results for our patients.
Osteopathy is a holistic allied health profession that treats all patients ranging from children, athletes as well as the elderly.
