Osteopathy is suitable for people of all ages and backgrounds and can treat a variety of common conditions, including changes to posture in pregnancy, babies with colic or restlessness, people of all ages for neck or back pain, work-related injuries, pain caused by arthritis, and sports injuries.

Our government-registered, fully qualified Osteopaths use a broad range of manual therapy techniques, including stretching, mobilising and manipulative techniques, the cranial osteopathic approach, and teaching you how to prevent illness and injury through maintaining a healthier lifestyle.

Our aim is to restore your body’s natural abilities to heal, by using a combination of hands-on treatment methods with advice on lifestyle, posture, stress, diet and exercise.
What is Osteopathy?
Do any of these apply to you?

Osteopathy is a way of detecting and treating damaged parts of the body such as muscles, ligaments, nerves and joints.

When the body is balanced and efficient, it will function with the minimum of wear and stress, and therefore with reduced pain and disability.

This leaves you with more energy for living.

In Australia, Osteopathy has been practised since 1909 and is recognised as a discrete medical discipline.  Osteopaths are statutorily registered after completing a five-year, full-time university training.  Osteopathy is widely practised throughout the United Kingdom, Europe, New Zealand and the United States.

Osteopathic treatment attracts rebates from all private health funds and a Doctor’s referral is not necessary.
