As The Shrewton Osteopath I aim to provide osteopathic healthcare to
all ages of the community. I provide treatment for conditions affecting the body's musculoskeletal
system (eg. the spine, muscles, nerves, ligaments, limbs and all joints).
Osteopathy can benefit many conditions including
- Back pain
- Sports injuries
- Tennis elbow and repetitive strain injury
- Headaches
The strength of osteopathy lies in the
unique way the patient is assessed from a functional, postural and lifestyle viewpoint. Using many of the diagnostic
procedures used in conventional medicine an osteopath will examine, diagnose and aim to treat painful or restricted
parts of the body to restore mobility and improve function. Osteopaths treat not just the symptoms but also the underlying
causes. To support the hands on treatment advice may also be given regarding diet, exercise and lifestyle.
Osteopaths are statutorily regulated health professionals
and form an integral part of primary care teams.
Osteopathic healthcare
is available from registered osteopath Caroline Sampson.
