More about Osteopathy in Hassocks at The Pain Relief Clinic
Osteopathy is a form of drug-free non-invasive manual medicine that focuses on total body health by treating and strengthening the musculoskeletal framework, which includes the joints, muscles and spine. Osteopathy is therefore a holistic (whole body) approach to health care. Many patients perceive this in and of itself a benefit; because they appreciate the focus is on their overall health and wellbeing, beyond simply the specific injury or pain that is causing them a problem.
Osteopaths use their hands to carefully realign the joints, a process called a ‘manipulation’ or an ‘adjustment’, which has a specific direction and pressure allowing the joints to establish good movement and position. Your treatment may also include soft tissue and mobilisation techniques, or gentle cranial osteopathy. The treatment is tailored to each individual, whatever age, health condition or special circumstances, such a pregnancy or arthritic conditions.
The Main Benefits of Osteopathy
Pain Relief
The primary benefits are the general improvement in mobility and structural stability of the body. In turn, other systems of the body such as the circulatory, nervous and lymphatic systems function more effectively too. There’s good evidence that Osteopathy is effective in treating persistent lower back pain, and in the UK the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends it as a treatment for this condition.
Reduction in Discomfort Associated with Chronic Illness
Osteopathy can also reduce discomfort from chronic illness such as asthma, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) etc. An osteopath can treat and alleviate symptoms associated with such chronic illness, even though they are not addressing the disease itself.
Improved Quality of Sleep
Another related benefit of treatment by an Osteopath is a reduction in restlessness and improvement in the quality of sleep. An effective Osteopathic treatment outcome often reflects the first signs of recovery with a good night’s sleep.
A Relaxing Experience
A further and more profound added benefit of Osteopathic treatment is that it allows patients time just to think about themselves and their body. Consultations tend to be relaxing and Osteopathy is known to reduce your stress levels by increasing the efficiency of your body’s systems (such as your blood flow, nerve supply and immune system).
