Osteopaths assess and treat people of any age from newborn babies to the elderly and from pregnant women to sports people. They not only treat the symptoms but also treat the parts of the body that may be causing the symptoms and help to prevent them returning. This is done using a wide range of techniques including soft tissue manipulations (a bit like massage), joint mobilisation, cranial techniques (cranial osteopathy) and acupuncture.
