Directions to Oving Clinic
Osteopaths at Oving Clinic are happy to treat patients with any condition listed above.
Cerebral Palsy
Science has not yet unlocked the mystery of cerebral palsy and there is no cure. Nevertheless a number of treatments have been recognised as helpful to patients. The Henry Spink Foundation which is one of the leading research charities for cerebral palsy recognises the benefits of a number of techniques, some of which are physical treatments. These treatments include Feldenkrais, Acupuncture, Acupressure and the mainstream physical treatments - osteopathy, chiropractic and physiotherapy. The way in which cranial osteopaths treat cerebral palsy patients is by seeking to drain the lymphatic system with gentle massage, increasing blood flow and draining sinus fluids.
Back pain
More than 65% of British men and women will suffer at least one episode of severe back pain during their adult lives. Pain can be caused by a trauma such as an accident or fall or as the result of bad posture, cramped working conditions at a computer or behind a steering wheel or as a result of lifting heavy loads. Frequently the cause is an unexpected event which triggers an underlying disc weakness. The result can be intense pain and, in extreme cases, a complete lack of mobility. Traditional treatment protocols ordinarily resort to drugs and rest. However, the physical therapy professions such as osteopathy can often significantly speed recovery through massage, manipulation and mobilsation of joints.
