About the Business
This is, as you will see, actually a really broad definition of the scope of what Osteopaths can treat, and not in any way a restrictive definition. Also please bear in mind here that Osteopaths actually treat REAL PEOPLE and not merely medical conditions, but that is not in the list.
A lot of patients seek osteopathic treatment regarding 'wear and tear' related aches and pains. Osteopathic treatment has a good effect on degenerative conditions. The more advanced the Arthritis the less response to Osteopathic treatments. Basically wear and tear is to do with an increase in the mechanical pressure through the affected joint, following overuse, mechanical trauma, age, weight gain, or and genetic predisposition. This leads to a decrease in synovial fluid, in turn increases the wear of the cartilage layers of the joint. The reaction from the body is to tighten or shorten muscles moving this particular joint, to prevent further wear.
