What can Osteopathy treat?
Osteopaths can treat people of all ages from new-born babies to senior citizens. Patients seek treatment for a wide variety of conditions, including back pain, repetitive strain injury, changes to posture in pregnancy, postural problems caused by driving or work strain, the pain of arthritis and sports injuries.
