Studying Physiotherapy and Osteopathy has allowed me to understand the physiological connections within the human body and its relationship to performance.

I follow the philosophy that therapy is most successful when people are treated as whole human beings, not as individual parts, and my work is focused on finding and treating the root caus of physical issues.

My Approach to Physio

Having taken a history, I will advise you of your therapy plan before treatment. Examinations are based on orthopaedic and neurological tests as well as tests of movement and strength which give an indication to the structures involved.  As needed, we may request a laboratory test to evaluate the function of your internal physiology, such as an Xray or MRI.  The laboratory examinations will be only used as clinically indicated and used in relation to your treatment.

Techniques of treatment Include

  • Muscle energy techniques
  • Joint manipulation
  • Stretching exercise
  • Myofascial trigger points release
  • Soft tissue techniques
  • Dry needling
  • Visceral manipulation
  • Cranio-sacral techniques

After treatment, I may also provide you advice on posture and exercise to encourage a faster recovery and help prevent problems reoccurring.  I will teach you exercises and stretching to do at home and also I will recommend you how to reach a healthy life without pain.

Along with physiotherapy, I also practice osteopathy, a system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions. It works with the structure and function of the body, and is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments, viscera, fascia  and connective tissues functioning smoothly together, using physical manipulation, stretching and massage to increase the mobility of joints, to relieve muscle tension, to enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues, and to help your body’s own healing mechanisms. It also provides advice on posture and exercise to aid recovery, promote health and prevent symptoms recurring.

Treatment may involve gentle articulation movements, soft tissue manipulation and/or gentle cranial osteopathic techniques. Patients may then be given further advice on posture, prevention and exercises. All techniques are chosen for each patients individual needs, allowing for the most effective treatment for that individual.

Post surgery: to reduce your recovery time and assist the body’s’ rebalancing.
Pregnancy: During pregnancy, your body undergoes huge changes to accommodate the growing fetus. The extra weight creates a shift in your body’s centre of gravity. Your ligaments become softer.
These changes can lead to sciatica pain, symphysis pubic dysfunction, shortness of breath, hip pain…
Osteopathic care can restore and maintain normal pelvic alignment and mobility during the pregnancy but also after the birth.
