Manual Osteopathy
The study of alignment, form and function, Manual Osteopathy is an advanced form of manual therapy using a range of techniques, such as joint mobilization, myofascial release, and soft tissue manipulation, to unwind the body and reset posture, alignment and the nervous system.
The therapist assesses areas with postural problems, pain symptoms, compounded tension, weakness, and scar tissue to address a variety of issues like joint and muscle pain, neural and organ dysfunction, limited range of motion, poor circulation, misalignment, and digestive issues.
This gentle therapy was developed to treat the body as a whole, because the body works and moves as a unit! Underlying issues are addressed to treat any compensation patterns that may be contributing to a chief complaint or underlying issue.

Meet Our Manual Osteopath
Lloyd Chung, Lead Therapist, provides a gentle, sophisticated and thorough service with Manual OsteopathY, cranial sacral Therapy, viscera and Myofascial release.
How Does it Work?
In practice a Manual Osteopath assesses the whole body, not limiting the examination and treatment to just the chief complain. A Manual Osteopath takes in to account any reported symptoms of pain, discomfort or imbalance. For example, if a client is complaining of knee pain, the Manual Osteopath will assess the form and function of the knee, but will also look for any contributing factors within the body that may be a result or cause of dysfunction in the knee.
Once the Manual Osteopath has assessed the whole body they will use a combination of techniques, such as joint articulation, myofascial release, visceral manipulation, and cranial sacral techniques, as needed for each client. The result is that the knee will have less stress placed on it, allowing for healing and a decrease in pain, while also improving the functional biomechanics throughout the body which may improve that difficult digestion and decrease those headaches that seemed to have nothing to do with the knee pain.
