Our Complementary Therapies

Osteopathy
Osteopaths focus on the body's skeleton, nervous system and joint function; when these areas are not working correctly pain can be the result. Gentle stretching and mobilising techniques are used, as well as manipulating joints, to create the perfect conditions to facilitate a healing process.

Treatment consists of the Osteopath placing his/her hands on the patient, usually on the head or along the spine, although work can be done from any point of the body. The touch is very light and gentle.

Nutrition - Coming to Park Practice in June

The food we eat can have a significant effect on every aspect of our lives. Making adjustments to your nutrition and lifestyle can make a big difference to the way you feel and your health.

If you suffer with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, evidence is showing the relatively new FODMAP diet can significantly improve symptoms in 75% of people. Studies show that reducing weight by 5-10% can cut risks of heart disease, diabetes and stroke and reduce blood pressure and cholesterol.

So whether you want to improve your energy, take control of your weight, improve your performance in sport or have a specific health concern, a consultation with a registered dietitian could benefit you.

Each consultation is tailed to your specific needs, to suite your lifestyle and to help you make achievable changes.

Dietary analysis is also available where your diet is nutritionally analysed, this is useful to check for vitamin or mineral deficiency, carbohydrates and protein intake for sport or for assessing overall energy intake or weight gain or loss.

So whether it's for a specific reason, or just to help stay fit and healthy, a dietitian can be beneficial to everyone.
