Draycott Osteopathy

Draycott Osteopathy in Derby provides osteopathy for musculoskeletal pain, sports injuries, chronic conditions and postural problems. Its clinical areas include back pain, neck pain, joint issues, arthritis, fibromyalgia, poor posture and repetitive strain injuries.

Liam Slater is the osteopath at the practice. He graduated from the College of Osteopathy in 2022 and describes his work as patient-centred, with assessments used to identify the factors linked to pain and dysfunction. Treatment plans may include manual therapy, exercises and lifestyle advice.

The practice offers initial appointments and follow-up appointments for osteopathy treatment. Its osteopathy care focuses on diagnosing, treating and preventing musculoskeletal issues, with hands-on techniques used around joint mobility, muscle tension and the blood and nerve supply to tissues.

Sports injury rehabilitation is a stated focus of the practice. Sports massage with Liam is available, aimed at athletes and active people, with work targeted at muscles used in physical activity. The practice also offers dry needling for muscle pain, trigger points, muscle tightness and sports injuries.
