James Bentley - Osteopathy has a couple of spaces left this week (Tues, Thurs & Fri) please call 01929 426506 to book an appointment with him.

Osteopathy is a way of detecting, treating and preventing health problems by moving, stretching and massaging a person's muscles and joints.
Osteopathy is based on the principle that the wellbeing of an individual depends on their bones, muscles, ligaments and connective tissue functioning smoothly together.

Osteopaths use physical manipulation, stretching and massage with the aim of:
• increasing the mobility of joints
• relieving muscle tension
• reducing pain
• enhancing the blood supply to tissues
• helping the body to heal

When it's used

Most people who see an osteopath do so for help with conditions that affect the muscles, bones and joints, such as:

• lower back pain
• uncomplicated neck pain (as opposed to neck pain after an injury such as whiplash)
• shoulder pain and elbow pain (for example, tennis elbow)
• arthritis
• problems with the pelvis, hips and legs
• sports injuries
• muscle and joint pain associated with driving, work or pregnancy

Hot Stone Massage - Smooth, heated, natural basalt stones are used in a dynamic way to warm the body, penetrating deep into the muscle tissue, promoting blood flow to tight sore muscles, helping to reduce muscular aches and pains and alleviate stress and tension. The deeply relaxing effect of heat can enable deeper not harder work to relieve tension and pain. Heat seems to have a direct effect on reducing tight muscles, often the cause of common chronic pain conditions, such as fibromyalgia and other autoimmune disorders.

If you are suffering with muscle pain, combining hot stones with a deep tissue massage can greatly increase the effectiveness of the treatment. The therapeutic addition of heat penetrates deep into the muscle tissue, increasing blood flow, easing tight sore muscles and enabling deeper more effective work.

To book please call 01929 426506

Acupuncture Treatment
A wide variety of people of all ages come for acupuncture treatment with a range of conditions. This could be merely the knowledge that your health is not as it should be, or an unexplained disturbance. You may simply want to maintain your health or improve your immune system or else be facing difficult circumstances where you feel you need additional support.
Acupuncture is often beneficial for both acute and chronic conditions of ill health which may be disturbing you physically or in your mind, emotions, or spirits. It is of value regardless of age.
To give an idea of the range of conditions which are frequently treated:
– Back ache and other aches and pains
– Digestive disturbance and sensitivities
– Asthma
– Headache and migraine
– Sleep disturbance
– Menstrual irregularities
– Unexplained inability to conceive
– Exhaustion
– Lowered immune system
– Emotional swings and depressions
– Low spirits
– Feeling unwell with no specific diagnosis
– Optimising and maintaining good health
– Helping and supporting people through cancer or other serious illness treatment
– Convalescence from a variety of conditions or incidents
One of the hallmarks of traditional acupuncture is its focus on treating the person rather than just the illness itself.
