Big news ✨ We’re now accepting private healthcare referrals for osteopathy appointments with Emilija!

This means if you have private health insurance that covers osteopathy, you may be able to access treatment with us as part of your policy—making it easier to get the care you need, when you need it.

So, who is this for?
✔️ Ongoing back, neck or joint pain
✔️ Headaches or tension linked to posture
✔️ Sports injuries or recurring niggles
✔️ Anyone feeling “not quite right” and wanting a whole-body approach

Osteopathy isn’t just about pain relief—it’s about helping your body move better, recover faster, and function as it should. Emilija takes a tailored, hands-on approach to get to the root of the issue, not just the symptoms.

Important: All sessions must be pre-approved by your insurance provider before booking, so be sure to contact them first to obtain your authorisation.

Once you’ve got that sorted, just get in touch and we’ll take care of the rest.

If you’ve been putting off getting help, this could be your moment.

⚡️Did you know Emilija, Osteopath, is trained in kinesiotaping?

🧵 Kinesiotaping can be used alongside osteopathic treatment to support recovery from a range of issues we commonly see in clinic—such as back and neck pain, sports injuries, joint strains, and muscle tension. It works by supporting muscles and joints, helping to reduce discomfort and allowing you to keep moving while you heal.

Whether you’re coming in with a recent injury or a longer-term problem, kinesiotaping can be a helpful addition to your treatment plan where appropriate.

If you’d like to know more, feel free to ask during your appointment, book online www.ashbyosteopath.com, call 01530440442 or WhatsApp 07821388283 to explore how we can support your recovery.

Shoulder pain isn’t just “shoulder pain.”
The type matters.
The cause matters even more.

Here are a few common types we see:

1. Rotator cuff strain or tear
Pain when lifting your arm, reaching overhead, or lying on that side in bed. It can build up over time or happen after a sudden movement.

2. Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
Stiff, painful, and progressively harder to move. Everyday tasks like putting on a jacket can become frustrating.

3. Shoulder impingement
A sharp pinch when raising your arm, especially between shoulder height and overhead. Often linked to posture or repetitive activity.

4. Referred pain from the neck or upper back
Sometimes the shoulder isn’t the real source. Restriction in the neck or upper spine can refer pain into the shoulder.

5. Postural strain
Long hours at a desk or on your phone can overload the muscles around the shoulder blade.

Here’s the key point: no two shoulders are treated the same.

Even if two people both have “rotator cuff pain,” the reason behind it can be completely different.

That’s why diagnosis comes first.

We assess how you move, where you’re restricted and how your shoulder is working with the rest of your body. From there, treatment is tailored specifically to you.

There’s no standard template. No generic sheet of exercises handed out to everyone.

Your treatment may include:
• Targeted joint mobilisation
• Specific soft tissue techniques
• Individualised rehab exercises
• Practical advice based on your job, sport, and daily habits

Personalised care is more effective because it addresses the real cause, not just the symptom.

If your shoulder has been lingering, guessing won’t fix it. A clear diagnosis and a plan built around you will.

Menopause & Frozen Shoulder: what’s the connection? ❄️

Did you know frozen shoulder is more common during the peri- and post-menopause?
Hormonal changes (particularly falling oestrogen) can affect connective tissue, inflammation levels, pain sensitivity and how well tissues repair — all of which can contribute to shoulder stiffness and pain.

How osteopathy can help
At Ashby Osteopaths, we look beyond just the shoulder. An osteopathic approach may include:
• Gentle joint and soft-tissue techniques to improve movement
• Addressing neck, upper back and rib mechanics that often overload the shoulder
• Supporting the nervous system and stress response, which can amplify pain
• Advice tailored to where you are in your menopause journey

Sarah, our menopause specialist, has completed post-graduate training in menopause care and takes a whole-body, whole-person approach 💜

Helpful tips if you’re struggling with a frozen shoulder during menopause:
✔ Keep the shoulder gently moving — complete rest often worsens stiffness
✔ Avoid aggressive stretching or “pushing through” pain
✔ Manage sleep positions to reduce night pain
✔ Consider strength, posture and load — not just flexibility
✔ Seek support that understands hormonal change, not just mechanics

Frozen shoulder can be frustrating, slow and painful — but you don’t have to manage it alone.

Postpartum Care at Ashby Osteopaths

The postnatal period is a time of huge physical change. Pregnancy, birth, and the early months of caring for a baby can all place new demands on your body. At Ashby Osteopaths, we offer dedicated Women’s Health osteopathy appointments to support your recovery and help you feel more comfortable and confident as your body adapts.

These appointments are tailored to you. They may focus on issues such as back or pelvic pain, scar recovery, abdominal weakness, postural strain, or tension through the neck and shoulders from feeding and lifting. Treatment is gentle and guided by how your body is feeling on the day.

As part of our women’s health services, we also offer Mummy MOT® appointments. This is a specialist postnatal assessment that looks in detail at pelvic floor function, abdominal muscles, posture, breathing, and movement. It provides a clear picture of how your body is recovering after birth, along with personalised treatment and advice to support your next steps.
If you’re not sure which type of appointment would suit you best, please get in touch.

Whether you’re a few weeks or many months postpartum, support can still make a real difference. Recovery doesn’t have an expiry date.
