Providing osteopathic treatment in Todmorden and the surrounding areas of West Yorkshire and Lancashire. Osteopathy is a holistic system which can treat a wide range of medical conditions. It is a scientifically founded method of treatment with foundations in the disciplines of Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pathology. It can complement orthodox medical treatment - some conditions respond better to osteopathy, and some conditions respond best when treated both osteopathically and through orthodox medicine. Contrary to popular opinion, osteopathy looks at more than just 'bad backs'. The scope is far greater and can involve treating the entire body from head to feet. Using hands-on techniques such as manipulation and articulation; stretching and massage; an osteopath will assess your musculoskeletal function, and adjust it to allow the body to heal naturally and efficiently. Treatment is not painful and rarely uncomfortable and can help many conditions (click here for more information). Long-term health and continued improvement is important: an osteopath can advise on exercise rehabilitation, ergonomics and in some cases diet.

Patients of all ages - from babies to old-aged pensioners, and situations - pregnant women to sports fanatics, can benefit from seeing an osteopath to alleviate a wide variety of complaints.
