OUR SERVICES - the proof

There is little financial incentive to undertake clinical trials for the efficacy of osteopathy, (and how do you really "double-blind trial"
hands-on treatment?), so few have been done.  However there is clinical evidence that osteopathy works with the following conditions:-
  • Back pain 
  • Neck pain
  • Shoulder pain
  • Elbow pain
  • Pelvis problems
  • Hip problems
  • Leg problems eg sciatica
  • Sports injuries
  • Muscle and joint pain associated with driving, work and pregnancy
