Osteopathy North East – Principles

Osteopathy is based on the principle that the body works as a whole. In other words Mandy will look at your whole body, not just the area that feels stiff or where you have pain.
Osteopaths try to find out the cause of the problem by using palpation and movement tests. If you had previous examinations, please bring the results to your first appointment.
It is best to wear loose-fitting clothes or sports clothes. You might be asked to undress to your underwear as this helps with some tests and parts of the examination.
Please let her know if you are uncomfortable with this. You can also bring somebody with you to the appointment. Children under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.

Cranial Osteopathy North East

Cranial osteopaths work with subtle changes of tissue quality and tension. They treat the whole body, not just the head as the name might imply, and work with people from all age groups. This is an especially gentle approach, often used in the treatment of children.
