The way we work
At Active Life Osteopathy, every patient is unique, which is why we tailor our practices for every individual. Our aim is to stop a problem or injury from recurring by taking away those reasons that allowed it to occur in the first place. Treatment can vary depending on the age of the patient and what the condition is.
Once we’ve found the root causes, we start by using gentle stretching and mobilising techniques to relax muscles, free stiff joints and alleviate pain. Rhythmic joint movements, muscle release techniques and specific adjustments can also be used. Additional advice will also be given to aid your recovery. This will include lifestyle changes, postural correction, strengthening and/or stretching exercise, hydrotherapy and nutrition.
By looking at the relationship between how well your body could be working to how well it is currently working, we can use our medical knowledge and palpation skills to relieve strains and rebalance interconnections between different areas of the body, improving circulation, mobility and reducing pain. This will naturally increase vitality, and encourage healing and relief to follow.
