Complementary therapies and treatments

1-2-1 Pilates

Our osteopaths are also trained Pilates instructors. This means they can give you a Pilates session that is tailored to suit you and any particular issues or ailments you may be experiencing. They can monitor how far you need to push yourself, and tell you exactly what you need to work on to add strength. If you are a Pilates beginner and don’t want to attend a group class, then these sessions are perfect for you.

Your osteopath can give you Pilates exercises specifically for your problem, building your confidence in just a few sessions. Pilates is great for improving your circulation, and also helps build strength and relieve pain. It can be particularly good for relieving back pain, which is often cause by a lack of core strength.

Dry needling

This treatment is a westernised version of acupuncture. It is used for tight muscles and helps to encourage blood flow and release muscular tension. It also helps to reduce pain and stiffness levels, encouraging a better range of motion and flexibility of the muscle.

Cranial osteopathy

This is a very gentle technique used to help correct any dysfunctional patterns or strains throughout the whole body. It can be used to treat babies, children and adults.

Insoles

We provide insoles for patients who have dropped arches or have a leg length difference. This helps to ensure the pelvis is level, and therefore the spine has a better chance of being in the correct position.

Wellness drop ins

We provide online relaxation sessions. This involves 25 minutes of stretching and strengthening led by one of our osteopaths, and 10-15 minutes of another form of wellness therapy, led by a different guest practitioner each week. Please contact the clinic for more information and timetable.

Massage

We offer aromatherapy massages, Thai yoga massages, deep tissue massages and hot stone massages in our OsteoWellbeing treatment room. These forms of massage can help release tension, improve the appearance of skin, increase circulation, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve sleep. Massage therapies complement osteopathy very well, allowing your osteopath to work on correcting the root cause of your aches and pains more specifically.

Facials

Facials can help to cleanse your face and rejuvenate your skin. They can also help improve blood circulation, detoxify your skin and reduce stress.

Temple Spa treatments

Our osteopath Süheyla is a Temple Spa consultant. She can host a Temple Spa class for up to eight people in your home, teaching you how to complete a facial treatment on yourself using products that are right for your skin type.

Süheyla can introduce you to some of the amazing Temple Spa skincare products in the clinic too. They will leave you feeling like you’ve visited a spa, but in the comfort of your own home. Please just ask next time you’re in – Temple Spa offer true luxury for reasonable prices.

Counselling

Counselling is a talking therapy that involves a trained therapist listening to you and helping you find ways to deal with emotional issues. At your appointment, you’ll be encouraged to talk about your feelings and emotions with a trained therapist, who’ll listen and support you without judging or criticising.

The therapist can help you gain a better understanding of your feelings and thought processes, and find your own solutions to problems.
