Osteopathy
Whole-body care rooted in structure
Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy that focuses on the structural and functional integrity of the body. Our osteopaths are university-trained Allied Health professionals who work with a complex range of health problems.
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, osteopathy looks for imbalances in the musculoskeletal system that may be contributing to pain or reduced function, addressing those at the source.
Most patients notice improvement in pain, mobility and energy within a few sessions.
No GP referral required. Medicare rebates available under a Chronic Disease Management plan.
If you need to book an appointment for an infant or baby please book with Anna Davies or Simon Robinson.

Dry Needling
Precision trigger point release
Dry needling uses fine, sterile acupuncture needles to target myofascial trigger points, the tight bands of muscle that cause localised and referred pain. Unlike acupuncture, dry needling is grounded in Western anatomical and neurophysiological principles.
It is highly effective for chronic muscular pain and tension that has been resistant to other treatments. Most patients experience immediate improvement in pain and range of movement.

Fascial Manipulation®
Hands-on release for deep, lasting change
Fascial Manipulation® is an effective soft tissue manual therapy method with certain guidelines that approach the patients individually and globally, especially in the field of myofascial pain and dysfunction, locomotor problems as well as internal dysfunctions. This method was found and has been developed by Italian physiotherapist Luigi Stecco with the scientific support of his daughter Dr. Carla Stecco and his son Dr. Antonio Stecco.
Fascial Manipulation® Method does not focus on the symptoms or just the area of pain or discomfort. Most of the time myofascial pain and dysfunction can be caused by a previous problem in different areas of the body. The following local or global compensations can cause altered perception of body position/movement, motor coordination and distribution of load on myofascial structures and joints. This may create injury risk, pain and local or global dysfunctions.
