SERVICES
Initial Consultation - Adult
The initial consultation includes a thorough case history, a holistic examination with orthopedic testing, and a discussion of your diagnosis and treatment plan. If necessary, referrals for imaging will be made. Hands-on treatment and relevant exercises will be provided to support your recovery.
Follow Up - Adult
In the follow up sessions, we will check your progress, conduct an examination for comparison and continue with hands on treatment. Exercises will be changed or modified as appropriate. Ideas, concerns and expectations around your diagnosis, the recovery, lifestyle factors will all be addressed.
Initial / Follow Up - Child
The focus in the session is keeping the child calm and at ease, and the treatment will reflect that. Whether the child wants to be with the parent, on the floor, on the treatment table or wherever they are most comfortable. We have story books, wooden blocks and balls to play with.
ABOUT
Rose graduated from the European School of Osteopathy in Maidstone, Kent, UK. Her training provided in depth knowledge and experience of cranial osteopathy, visceral osteopathy and the classical style. Treatment sessions combine a mixture of techniques, including joint mobilisations, muscle energy technique, cranial sacral, balanced ligamentous tension, soft tissue work.
Rose has completed further training in
- women’s health issues, such as endometriosis, pelvic pain, C-section scarring, rectus diastasis (stomach muscle seperation and bladder dysfunction.
- retained reflexes and neurodevelopmental delay which are often found to exacerbate symptoms of ADHD and autism.
- paediatric osteopathy and common complaints suffered by newborn babies and children.
Rose's approach looks from the ground up. What are the foundations of the body through the arch of the foot like? How does that translate up to the pelvis, spine and neck? How does the breathing pattern and nervous system tension affect the patients presentation?
Are there maintaining factors in the patients lifestyle that can be addressed and provide relief for the presentation?
Through approaching the whole of the individual, Rose provides effective, efficient, holistic care.
