Osteopathic treatment can help osteoarthritis, bursitis, sports injuries and plantar fasciitis.
Is hip, knee or ankle pain stopping you from doing the things you love? This pain is often related to many treatable conditions including a trapped nerve, bursitis, arthritis, sports injuries (inversion and eversion ankle injuries) or plantar fasciitis and dropped or high arches.
Examination
I will carry out a detailed examination of your spine, hip, knee and foot, determining the cause of your pain. I will explain clearly what is happening and how I can help. I find many people have never been given a clear diagnosis – and this in itself provides understanding and often much relief.
I will also address the imbalance of muscles maintaining the problem and pulling the patella out of alignment – often weak core muscles, poor posture, prolonged sitting, driving, past falls and injuries and heavy lifting.
Your Treatment
I will use a wide range of safe and effective pain free treatments, depending on your age, fitness and diagnosis, tailored specifically for you. It will involve a variety of techniques to reduce pain, muscle spasm and inflammation.
My aim is to increase movement and reduce the pressure of compressed nerves and rebalance muscles and structure. I will provide you with the latest Pilates based exercises to maintain your recovery in the long term so you are less likely to re-injure.
