Any problem joint in your body can be manipulated painlessly into a more functional position; immediately reducing associated muscle, tendon, ligament and fascial tension.

This reduction in unnecessary tone releases trapped nerves, restores proper joint motion and gets rid of pain !!

Lymph and blood can then move through tissues without restriction improving healing, removing toxins and reducing inflammation.

JOINT MANIPULATION WORKS !!!

GP diagnosis: Golfers Elbow
In reality the elbow is a red herring: Thoracic Facet Joint Dysfunction (upper spine joints) is causing Thoracic Outlet Syndrome which has put pressure on the Ulnar nerve causing forearm tendons attached to the elbow to be painful

Think you have a Knee Joint problem?

It's often just painful leg muscles caused by Facet Joint Dysfunction in the low back

Many people are concerned that something more serious is going on, especially when both their GP consultation and physio referral have been useless!! .. As an Osteopath I regularly put people's minds at rest, the vast majority of conditions are nothing to be concerned about and are often very easily treated !!

Think you need an MRI? An Osteopath can help you decide with a neuromusculoskeletal assessment. If necessary a referral can be made to a private imaging provider.
I currently refer regularly to pro-scanimaging.com in Newton le Willows. As soon as the referral is made they are rapidly in touch to arrange your scan at very competitive prices.

What really works for backs;;

Using assessment to determine the position of spinal joints and pelvic joints.
Mobilization, stretching, HVT or MET of the problem joint in the opposite directions to those found in the assessment.

As all the nerves to muscles emerge from the spinal joints, work on the spine thus reduces nerve irritation; causing tight muscles to immediately reduce in tone and feel less painful. Muscles then change much quicker when massaged or inhibited with direct pressure techniques.
