Yes. By improving movement efficiency, joint mobility, muscle balance, and posture, osteopathy helps reduce the risk of injury recurrence and supports long-term performance.

Osteopathy supports recovery after surgery by gently improving mobility, circulation, tissue healing, and overall comfort. It helps the body adapt to post-surgical changes, reduces compensatory strain, and supports a smoother return to daily activities.

This depends on the type of surgery and your surgeon’s guidance. In many cases, gentle osteopathic care can begin once the acute healing phase has passed. Your osteopath will assess your readiness and adapt treatment accordingly.

Yes. Post-surgical osteopathy uses very gentle, non-invasive techniques. Treatment avoids surgical sites until appropriate and is always tailored to your stage of healing, medical history, and comfort level.

Yes. Osteopathy can help improve mobility of scar tissue and surrounding fascia, which may reduce tightness, pulling sensations, and movement restriction. This is done gradually and safely.

Osteopathy may help support recovery from:

• Pain and stiffness

• Reduced joint or spinal mobility

• Scar tightness or discomfort

• Swelling or fluid retention

• Postural changes

• Muscle weakness or imbalance

• Digestive or breathing discomfort after abdominal or chest surgery

Yes. Osteopathy works very well alongside physiotherapy, medical care, and rehabilitation programs. It complements exercise-based rehab by addressing soft tissue, joint mobility, and whole-body balance.

Techniques may include:

• Gentle soft tissue release

• Myofascial and scar tissue techniques

• Joint and spinal mobilisation

• Cranial osteopathy

• Breathing and diaphragm support

All techniques are pain-free and adapted to healing tissues.

Yes. Even months or years after surgery, osteopathy may help address persistent stiffness, pain, postural strain, or compensatory movement patterns that developed during recovery.

Myofascial release is a hands-on technique that targets the fascia—the connective tissue surrounding muscles and joints—to release tension, reduce pain, and improve movement.

Myoskeletal therapy focuses on correcting muscle imbalances and skeletal misalignment that contribute to pain, poor posture, and restricted movement.

They are complementary. Myofascial release focuses on fascial restrictions, while myoskeletal therapy addresses muscle imbalance and alignment. Both are often combined in osteopathic care.

They are commonly used for chronic back and neck pain, shoulder tension, headaches, sciatica, sports injuries, postural issues, and repetitive strain injuries.

During your first osteopathic treatment, your osteopath will ask about your current problem, past medical and family history, and any medications you are taking. You will also need to fill out our new client forms. The osteopath will conduct a manual examination, clinical tests, and movement and postural assessments to diagnose and determine how to manage your condition. Please wear comfortable and loose clothing. The osteopath may examine the area that is troubling you as well as other parts of your body, as osteopathy takes a whole-body approach to assessment and clinical management. For example, if you have a sore back, your osteopath may also look at your knee, ankle, pelvis, and skull. Please allow up to 1 hour for your initial consultation. Additionally, you can book appointments online and explore corporate partnerships, referral programs, and loyalty rewards.

The number of osteopathy treatments you will need depends on the severity and nature of your condition, whether it is an acute or chronic injury. Every individual heals at a different pace. Our goal is to not only treat your symptoms but also to find the root cause and provide holistic care. Typically, acute conditions may require fewer sessions, while chronic issues might need ongoing treatment.

If your condition improves or worsens between consultations, or if there is a change in your medication dosage, it is important to inform your osteopath. This helps us adjust your treatment plan accordingly. Additionally, please arrive early for your first appointment to fill out the initial paperwork.

Completing the paperwork allows your osteopath to record your medical history, which is crucial for understanding the severity of your condition and assisting in diagnosis and treatment planning. You will also be asked to provide your residential address and other relevant contact information. Additionally, under the law, an osteopath must obtain your approval to treat you, so you will be asked to sign an ‘informed consent’ form.

Something comfortable and loose. Your clothes shouldn't restrict movement and should be relatively light.

Depending on the area of your body requiring treatment, your osteopath may/may not ask you to undress to your underwear. If you are asked to remove outer clothes, you should be offered a gown and covered with a towel during the treatment.

Yes, you can have someone present throughout your consultation and treatment. If a baby or young child or is being treated, the parent or guardian will be required to stay in the room during treatment. Teenagers may be requested to have a parent or guardian present in a consultation.
