Backbone Osteopathic Practice

The Backbone Osteopaths

The Backbone Osteopathy Practice treats people of all ages with many different problems using a variety of techniques which may include massage, stretching, articulation, dry needling, cranial osteopathic techniques, taping, electrotherapy and home exercises. All their Osteopaths are fully insured and registered with The General Osteopathic Council.

Osteopaths treat more than just your pain. They take into account all the things that may have an effect on your health including your posture related to work or carrying children, hormonal effects of pregnancy or other issues, general health, overall fitness levels and many other factors and help to provide you with a long term solution rather than a quick temporary fix.

Osteopathic Treatment During Pregnancy and Postnatally:

The Backbone Clinics Osteopathy treatments are individually tailored to the patients needs so are safe and suitable for the changes during pregnancy. Due to the hormonal effects and the increased weight related to pregnancy (normal pregnancy is up to 24lbs) women often find that their digestive system can become irritable or they may have pelvic/lower back/upper back or neck pain.

The Osteopaths at The Backbone practices not only work on the painful areas to ease your discomfort but address other factors such as joint restriction in other areas or muscle weakness. These pains can often be managed and reduced with treatment. The Backbone Osteopaths also assist new mums with the increased strain from repeated lifting and carrying of their precious new bundle.

Please note that The Backbone Osteopathic Practices treat pregnant women AFTER the first trimester.

Osteopathic Treatment of Babies:

The Backbone’s Osteopaths are trained in Cranial Osteopathy techniques and have undergone further paediatric training and are able to assist with gentle release work for babies and young children.

It is a common belief that babies and children should have no structural stresses and strains in their bodies, because they are “so young”. However, being born isn’t always a straight forward. Complications can arise. Cranial Osteopathy provides a gentle, medicine free, effective approach for both baby and mother. Even if there isn’t any obvious problem with baby, we still recommend a preventative treatment and check-up as it can be relaxing and a nice treat for baby.

At The Backbone Clinics some of the more common issues presented by babies are:

Digestive difficulties.
Muscle tension.
Inability to relax. The baby sleeps for only short periods, may sleep little and wake to the slightest noise- “jumpy”.
Tenderness and restriction within the jaw or neck related to the birth process which may give difficulties with opening the mouth or tenderness in the skull which may be affected by feeding positions
