Hands-on Osteopathy
Treatments to Suit Your Needs
Osteopathy recognizes the important connection between the body, and how different systems in the body interrelate and function as one.
How Osteopathy can help you
Reduce pain
Osteopathic treatment can be used to alleviate pain in different areas, the most common of which are back pain and neck pain.
Prevent injury
Treatment can help keep injuries or acute conditions from recurring.
Relaxation
Osteopathy can help reduce stress levels by improving blood circulation, reducing blood pressure and increasing the efficiency of the nerve supply.
Relief from discomfort
Your osteopath can also provide treatments that can relieve you from symptoms of chronic illnesses like asthma, arthritis and irritable bowel syndrome.
Our Osteopathic team are highly skilled in
providing excellent and gentle treatment.
Our bodies are subject to different forms of mechanical stresses. Osteopathy is designed to restore the normal functions of the body by addressing and treating the root cause of the pain that has resulted from injury or illness.
Osteopaths focus on your neuro-musculoskeletal system – the bones, muscles, nerves and other tissues that support your body and control its movements. They know how parts of your body should work together and the impact if they do not.
At Coolangatta-Tweed Osteopathy, we have a unique way of assessing our patients and follow a hands-on approach to treatment. Our osteopaths are medically trained professionals that aim to address the underlying cause rather just treating the symptoms.
Our techniques are developed over the years, assessing and treating the body using a combination of gentle and relaxing treatments like massages, repetitive movements, stretching and mobilisation.
Our Osteopaths are trained to provide:
Musculoskeletal and nervous system assessment
They use a range of tools to identify what might be happening in the body.
Manual therapy
Includes a range of ‘hands-on’ techniques such as massage, acupressure, active and passive stretching that may give relief from musculoskeletal pain
Clinical exercise programs
Activities and movement strategies for use at home, work or in other settings. Exercise may help you return to activities you enjoy, for example after an injury or surgery.
As well as:
👉 Movement, postural, positioning advice and ergonomic assessments
👉 Advice about your lifestyle, stress management, diet or other factors that may influence your pain, injury or movement.
