Osteopathy Treatment for Neck Pain

The aim of Osteopathy treatment is to improve blood flow around the body by using a combination of massage and stretching techniques to improve mobility in the muscles and tissues around the neck and shoulders.

Spinal manipulation is a technique used to effectively improve joint function in the neck and back. The improved movement in the neck following this technique, will relieve muscle tension and essentially, relieve pain.

Osteopathy Treatment for Low Back Pain

Osteopaths treat all types of back pain. The most common causes of low back pain involve sudden or sustained lifting and bending movements. In young adults, this can be due to disc problems, which can result in sciatica, a symptom of shooting pain down the back and side of the leg. In others, low back pain can accumulate following repeated stresses on the lower back.

Osteopathy treatment for low back pain involves a variety of techniques to alleviate muscle tension in the lower back that initially forms to protect the back.

Spinal manipulation is a specialised technique where our Osteopaths use their hands to apply a controlled thrust to a restricted joint in the upper and lower spine. once carried out, the surrounding muscle tension will ease and allow the back to heal.

What to expect on your first visit…

Your Osteopath will greet you and begin by asking what brought you to us. We are always keen to understand the root cause of your issues, therefore your Osteopath will carry out an efficient and effective case history to identify them. This will also be essential to rule out any complications before you start your treatment.

Before any treatment begins, your Osteopath will carry out an active and passive examination, along with relevant Osteopathic and orthopaedic testing to understand your issues. Your Osteopath will give you a thorough explanation of their findings so you can understand what the cause of the problem is and how best to treat it. Your Osteopath will ensure that sufficient time is spent to get to the root cause of your issues.

  Would (and have) recommend back to health wellness. Treatment and care based on science and fully listening to the needs of the patient. Andrew has made a big difference to my back pain and migraines already, and is very knowledgeable with what he does.

  Andrew's passion for his work is obvious from the first visit, his enthusiasm and clear explanations of the root cause of an injury really help you understand an injury and set you on the right track towards recovery. While I was not able to complete the full plan of sessions for my rehabilitation due to time constraints, his explanations and exercise plans have helped me continue making progress after our sessions had ended.

  From my first visit in Aug 2020, when I was in constant low level pain with numb feet following spinal surgery 3 years previously and 6 months of working from home at a screen, Andrew has been remarkable. He put me at ease instantly, and his level of knowledge and expertise meant I had no reservation about signing up to the adjustment/correction package. He has been fully invested in my treatment, ensuring I wanted to put the work in in between sessions to get maximum results. Sticking to the plan with traction, exercises and regular corrections over 17 months, my spine is stronger and more stable than it has ever been, achieving near perfect vertical alignment and my pelvis has equally improved horizontally. I can walk taller, further and longer. Andrew is exceptional in his approach and I’ll be forever grateful. Apparently this structural change is for keeps with a little maintenance; a small price to pay and a delight working with such a lovely chap.

  Been with Back to Health for about 2 years or so and always been treated by Andrew. Service is brilliant, always very helpful and come away from every session feeling a lot better than when I'd come in. Due to the excellent treatment from Andrew, there have been noticeable improvements in my movement! Have been to other chiros previously and the combination of muscle work and chiro adjustments really made me feel this is the best place I've been to.

“Excellent service! I’ve needed to see osteopaths for years now and this is one of the best – they actually fixed the source of my spinal issue and got everything back into shape rather than just a quick fix like I’ve experienced at other places. They are so friendly and funny as well – quite enjoy seeing these guys regularly!”
