OSTEOPATHY

Osteopathy is a form of manual healthcare which recognises the important link between the structure of the body and the way it functions. Osteopaths focus on how the skeleton, joints, muscles, nerves, circulation, connective tissues and internal organs function as an entire unit.

Osteopaths are not just limited to the treatment of the spine or rehab, but treat all areas of the body including, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments. We take a more thorough look at the biomechanics of your body and piece today why your problem has occurred in the first place, whilst treating the presenting issues. 

​

In Australia, osteopaths are government registered practitioners who complete a minimum of five years' university training in anatomy, physiology, pathology, general medical diagnosis and osteopathic techniques.

 

Osteopathy is a from of manual healthcare that recognises the important link between the structure of the body and the way it functions. Our practitioners use skilled evaluation, diagnosis, and a wide range of hands- on techniques to identify the reasons for your pain, injuries or dysfunction. They are also trained to perform standard medical examinations of the musculo-skeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory and nervous systems.

 

Osteopathy is covered by most private health funds and by Medicare's Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Plans. Osteopaths are registered providers for DVA patients, as well as by workers’ compensation schemes and motor accident insurers." - Osteopathy Australia
