The Osteopathic Practice

Adult osteopathy is provided for pain, stiffness and tension affecting everyday movement, including back pain, neck pain, sciatica, shoulder pain, elbow pain, hand and wrist pain, hip pain, knee pain, and foot and ankle pain. The Osteopathic Practice in Sheffield works with adults of all ages, using assessment, diagnosis and hands-on osteopathic treatment with advice and movement support where appropriate.

The practice also provides osteopathy for babies and children. Baby services named by the practice include tongue tie osteopathy, baby torticollis, baby plagiocephaly flat head syndrome, baby colic, and baby reflux or colic. Children are also listed as a group the practice can help.

Care for pregnancy, postnatal recovery and women’s health is part of the practice’s stated work. Named services include osteopathy for mums-to-be, Mummy MOT, Reset Consultation and Women’s Health Osteopathy. Cranial Osteopathy is also listed among the services.

At a first appointment, the practice takes a history of the problem and other relevant life factors, then carries out a physical assessment. This is used to form a diagnosis and a treatment plan. A phone consultation with an osteopath is available for people who want to discuss whether osteopathy may be suitable before arranging care.

The osteopaths’ clinical interests include adults and older adults, babies and children, paediatric osteopathy, persistent pain, chronic pain, women’s health, pregnancy and postnatal care, and the relationship between physical discomfort, stress and longer-standing patterns of tension. Some clinicians also speak Hindi, Mandarin and French.

All osteopaths at the practice are fully registered with the General Osteopathic Council.
