Osteopathy
Osteopathy
Osteopathy is an established recognised system of diagnosis and treatment, which lays its main emphasis on the structural and functional integrity of the body. It is distinctive by the fact that it recognises that much of the pain and disability which we suffer stems from abnormalities in the function of the body structure as well as damage caused to it by disease.
Cranial Osteopathy is a gentle yet extremely effective type of osteopathic treatment that encourages the release of tension and restrictive patterns throughout the body. It is often associated with newborns and children as the enormous forces the baby is subjected to at birth can lead to retained moulding and compression of the cranium (the head) .Cranial osteopathy can be an ideal therapy for some babies. At Huddersfield Osteopathy we actively encourage pregnant mothers to be to have an osteopathic check up before and after labour for the ongoing health of themselves and for their babies.
Trauma & Injury
Trauma & Injury
Most people will have suffered trauma at some point in their lives such as from road traffic accidents, falls or through sport. The effects of the strain on the joints can make them more vulnerable to arthritic change and cause undue fatigue because the body has to compensate to perform every day tasks. The body therefore requires regular maintenance and servicing like a good car as it gets older (if it wants to do the extra mileage! Hee hee)
Osteopathic treatment is aimed at improving the circulation around the joints to improve and slow the rate of deterioration and to ease old strains held within the body. A full medical history is taken and the treatment procedure is tailored to the individual with patient comfort being the main priority.

Back Pain
Back Pain
Eighty percent of people suffer from back pain at some point in their lives. Back pain is the second most common reason for visits to the doctor, outnumbered only by respiratory infections. There are many different conditions that can result in back pain and it can be severe and debilitating when it is acute or chronic suffered over many years. As long as it is healthy and functioning correctly, the back can withstand tremendous forces without injury. However, if the back is out of line or has weakened supporting muscles, something as simple as doing up your shoe laces or drying your toes after a shower can cause an injury. It is important to take back pain seriously and seek professional osteopathic care. So contact Huddersfield Osteopathy (based in huddersfield West Yorkshire)now on 01484 517 808
