Your body is changing due to fluctuating and declining levels of oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone.

Repetitive strain injuries (RSI) occur when a person repeatedly does the same action for long periods of time such as working on a computer or repetitive physical work. It can also be related to leisure activities.

RSI can present in two forms; medical conditions such as tennis elbow or carpal tunnel syndrome or where it doesn't fit into a recognised condition and is referred to as non-specific or diffuse pain.

Osteopathic treatment can help the problem by treating the symptomatic area and checking the rest of the body. For example, if you have RSI in your forearm, your osteopath will ensure that the elbow, shoulder, neck and upper back are all functioning correctly. They will also give you advice on exercises and strapping.

If you feel we can help, book online at osteo.co.nz or contact us on 03 351 8262.

Osteopathy is a drug-free, non-invasive form of manual medicine that focuses on the health of the whole body, not just the injured or affected part.

Osteopathy is about treating your body as one system, not isolated parts. By addressing the connection of muscles, joints, bones, and nerves, osteopathy helps restore balance and support your body’s natural healing processes.

When you treat the body as a whole, everything starts working better together. It’s the key to feeling like your best self—not just in one area, but in every way.

To find out more, phone us on 03 351 8262 or visit our website osteo.co.nz to book an appointment.

If you are seeking a more holistic approach to managing osteoporosis beyond medication, osteopathy might be worth exploring. Osteopathy is gaining recognition for potential benefits in supporting those with osteoporosis.

Osteopaths use a hands-on approach to diagnose and treat various conditions, including osteoporosis. Their treatment approach aims to improve overall body mechanics and function, which can positively impact bone health.

Osteopathy isn't a miracle cure for osteoporosis – nothing is – but it offers a gentle, hands-on approach that many find valuable in maintaining mobility, managing pain, and improving quality of life while living with this condition.
