What is Structural Osteopathy
Structural osteopathy is a physical hands-on approach to treatment, involving actively moving, massaging, stretching, and mobilising the joints of the body. When using structural techniques, your osteopath will move your joints using gentle but firm pressure. Whilst the techniques do not cause pain, sometimes the tissues can be mildly tender to work into – this is because a new mechanical alignment of the body is being encouraged by the techniques. Your osteopath will always check in and make sure that treatment is comfortable for you – it is a comfortable and relaxing process.
