NATUROPATHY
Naturopathy is a practice of healthcare that uses natural medicines to treat and prevent disease. It integrates conventional health sciences with a range of natural therapies to treat the mental, emotional and physical states. Your therapeutic plan will include dietary advice, utilising common, wholesome foods that are specific to your presentation. In addition to this, herbal medicines, vitamin and mineral supplements may be recommended to assist the body in its healing process.
OSTEOPATHY
Osteopathy uses manual therapy techniques similar to those applied by a chiropractor and physiotherapist. These include: manipulation, soft tissue work, stretching, muscle energy techniques and more specialised applications such as; cranio-sacral work and balanced ligamentous tension. Treatment aims to assess the function and structure of the body and determine why it has a problem. Determining why the body produces specific symptoms assists in providing diagnosis and treatment whilst developing a strategy to prevent its recurrence in the future.
