Southwold Treatment Rooms

Osteopaths study for 4 to 5 years for a Bachelor of Science Honours degree, which is similar to a medical degree but with more emphasis on musculoskeletal medicine. It is the most frequently used complimentary therapy and was the first to gain statutory regulation, which means osteopaths must register with the general osteopathic council: so you know you are in safe hands.Osteopaths have a holistic approach to treatment and believe that your whole body will work well if your body is in good structural balance. We treat each patient as an individual and tailor your treatment to your specific needs.Your consultation allows plenty of time for us to listen to you, discussing your complaint and your medical history, before we begin evaluating your posture and movements. We then use orthopaedic tests to reach a diagnosis and discuss this with you before starting your treatment.
