Osteopath Newmarket
Hands-On Treatment Techniques
Osteopaths use a variety of manual techniques to address musculoskeletal issues, including:
- Soft Tissue Manipulation: Gentle pressure and massage-like techniques to improve circulation, reduce muscle tension, and promote healing.
- Joint Mobilization: Controlled movements to restore flexibility and range of motion in stiff or restricted joints.
- Myofascial Release: A technique that targets tight connective tissue (fascia) to relieve tension and improve movement.
- Cranial Osteopathy: Gentle manipulation of the head and spine to relieve tension and support nervous system function.
- Visceral Manipulation: Light pressure applied to the abdomen to help improve organ function and overall body balance.
Post-Treatment Guidance
- Your osteopath may provide exercises, stretches, or lifestyle recommendations to support your recovery and maintain mobility.
- They may also suggest follow-up treatments if necessary, depending on your condition and progress.
Osteopathic treatment is typically gentle and non-invasive, making it suitable for a wide range of conditions, from chronic pain to sports injuries and postural issues.
Is Osteopath for me?
Osteopathic medicine is suitable for individuals of all ages, from newborns to seniors. The use of Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) focuses on the muscles, joints, and tissues, promoting overall health and wellness. Osteopaths treat the body as an interconnected whole, allowing for a more comprehensive approach to healing, rather than focusing solely on one isolated condition.

Visceral Therapy
Visceral therapy is another cornerstone of Manual Osteopathy, focusing on the organs and soft tissues within the body. This therapy helps to identify restrictions or dysfunctions in the organs, which can be linked to a variety of health issues, including digestive problems, respiratory conditions, and pelvic discomfort. Through gentle, hands-on techniques, visceral therapy works to release tension and improve the mobility of internal structures, which can lead to improved organ function, reduced pain, and enhanced overall health.
Cranial Therapy
Cranial osteopathy is a specialized technique that focuses on the bones of the skull, spine, and sacrum. It is particularly effective for addressing issues related to the head and neck, including headaches, migraines, jaw pain, and stress-related and sleep disorders. By using gentle, rhythmic motions, cranial therapy can help release tension in the nervous system, promote relaxation, and alleviate discomfort. This non-invasive therapy is especially beneficial for people dealing with tension, trauma, or chronic conditions affecting the head and neck.
