Directions to Cardonald Therapy Centre Osteopath Glasgow
Osteopaths at Cardonald Therapy Centre Osteopath Glasgow are happy to treat patients with any condition listed above.
Whiplash
Whiplash injuries are frequently the result of a road traffic injury. As a vehicle comes to a sudden stop the head is thrust backwards at great velocity like the end of a whip. Whilst associated with car accidents, whiplash can occur on fairground rides and even from a simple fall. The result may be damage to neck and back discs, joints, ligaments and nerves. The sensitivity of the neck is such that whiplash symptoms can effect all of the body both physically and psychologically. The osteopathic approach is to work these injuries very gently over a number of sessions to carefully treat the tissue and joints. Soft tissue massage techniques will be used to soften the muscle before gentle manipulaiton or articluation techniques are performed in an attempt to restore natural movement ranges.
Learning Disorders
Learning disorders are similar to the issues surrounding delayed development in that they are often misdiagnosed as a child being less able than others. In fact the problems the child is having with learning may have a very simple physical explanation which can be treated successfully and with fairly rapid impromement. The cause of the syndrome may be congenital, but in many cases the cause may simply be a physical neurological issue which will benefit from cranial osteopathy. Gentle treatment to unblock a neural pathway may yield substantial benefit - although clearly not in all cases. The typical course of treatment would be 6 to 8 sessions.
