Christian Scharsach and Associates

Christian Scharsach and Associates treats back pain, neck pain, joint pain and other musculoskeletal problems with osteopathy, cranial osteopathy and naturopathy at its clinic in Berkhamsted.

The practice sees adults and children. Conditions treated include acute and chronic backache and back pain, sciatica, neck pain, joint pains, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, arthritic pain, muscle spasms, neuralgia, minor sports injuries, cervicogenic headache, migraine prevention, rheumatic pain, cramp, circulatory problems and digestion problems. It also works with tension, difficulty relaxing and fibromyalgia.

Osteopathy at the practice uses manual diagnosis and treatment, with attention to joint mobility, muscle tension and posture. Cranial osteopathy is offered as a specialist branch of osteopathy, using a refined and subtle approach to stresses and tensions in the body, including the head. Naturopathy is also part of the practice’s work, with a focus on physiological, physical and mental or emotional health.

The practitioners’ stated areas include osteopathy, cranial osteopathy, naturopathy, manual therapy, rehabilitation, sports injury, pain relief, stress relief, women’s health and visceral osteopathy. The practice ethos is holistic, with treatments adapted to the individual and an emphasis on comfortable, unrushed care.

The osteopaths are registered with the General Osteopathic Council and are members of the Institute of Osteopathy.
