About Osteopathy

Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy that sees the body not as individual parts, but as one holistic unit. Founded more than 100 years ago, modern osteopathy aims to relieve pain, improve function, and assist with a patient’s musculoskeletal health.

Utilising in-depth assessment, diagnostic, and management skills, our osteopaths can identify, assess, and manage injured areas using a range of techniques. As well as this, our friendly osteopaths may offer you advice, including lifestyle and exercise recommendations.

Visiting the Osteopath Preston

When you visit a Physical Healthcare osteopath for the first time, they will take your injury and medical history and assess your problem areas. As a tailored form of manual therapy, your osteopath will offer you specific treatments to meet your goals.

Your appointment may include a mix of massage, stretching, and joint manipulation, as well as other hands-on techniques.
