Luisa Whitlock Osteopath & Naturopath

Luisa Whitlock Osteopath & Naturopath Fully registered with 25 years of treating babies, pregnancy, sports injuries, back/neck pain, msk I may also use cranial osteopathy or acupuncture.

Osteopathy is a manual therapy focused on optimizing the body's function by keeping it's structure stable and balanced. Osteopaths are trained to diagnose and treat musculo-skeletal conditions. I look at treating the whole body to find the cause of the problem and not just treating the symptoms. Treatment can include soft tissue massage, joint mobilisations, stretching techniques and manipulation

to promote healing of the joints, muscles, ligaments and enhance the blood and nerve supply to an area.

🌿 keeping joints mobile
🌿muscles strong

☀️ ahhhhh sunshine, you can’t help but smile when it’s here

☀️ It’s warmth and brightness is great for lifting your mood, boosting your vitamin D, supporting your immune system, and helps reset your natural sleep rhythm.

☀️ Even 10–15 minutes outside—morning coffee in the garden, a walk at lunch, or just pausing to feel the warmth on your face—can make a difference….

…. so step outside ….. breath deeply ….. and smile 😊

🌿 Self-care isn’t selfish — it’s an essential part of staying healthy.

🌿 Taking time to rest, move, breathe, and recharge helps to increase our energy, boost our mood and help our immune system.

🌿 Sometimes you just need to slow down and take care of yourself 💫

There are many reasons to be happy that spring is in the air, but arguably the best one has to be that you can hang your washing outside!! 🙌 🤣

Just to feel the warmth of the sun on your skin instantly brightens your mood and with the days getting longer and the garden beginning to stir, it leaves you feeling lighter, fresher, and full of new energy.

Spring is here, so get out and enjoy it! 🌺 ☀️

- headaches
- slows gut movement

- contributes to poor pelvic floor tone

🎯 how are your January goals going?

Usually people give up quickly when they make too many unrealistic goals, so take a step back and really look at what you want to achieve.

Start small:

🍌 want to eat more fruit and veg? Have a banana with your coffee or add one extra veg portion with dinner
💧 want to drink more water? Have a glass of water while waiting for the kettle to boil
🏃🏻‍♀️ want to exercise more? Find one class and attend regularly
😴 want to sleep more? Go to bed 15mins earlier than you normally do
🧠 want to reduce stress? Get outside everyday, whatever the weather

It’s much easier to make small changes and build from there, and if you don’t achieve it today, there is always tomorrow 😉

If an ache or pain is stopping you achieving your goals, get in touch today 📞

😴 Having trouble sleeping?

I often get asked what is the best pillow, but the answer depends on :
🛌 what position you sleep in
🛌 how good your mattress is
🛌 how warm/cold you get
🛌 and if you are in any pain

Pain, pregnancy or post-surgery can mean you are not able to sleep in your usual position, so using pillows can help to support you while your body heals.

If you are not sleeping well, get in touch and see if I can help get you a good night sleep 😴
