Osteopathy is a form of manual or hands on medicine that can be used for people of all ages. Osteopathy recognises the important link between the structure of the body and how it functions.

An osteopath will focus on all of the components of the body that work together to form a unit, including the muscles, joints, connective tissues, organs, nerves and blood vessels.

They will use skilled methods of assessment to form a diagnosis and treatment plan for your individual presentation.

An Osteopath can communicate with your GP and other Allied health practitioners to participate in group management of your condition.

An Osteopath can refer you for radiological imaging as allowed under medicare rules in Australia.

An Osteopath has completed a minimum of 4.5 years of university and Masters level education.

Osteopaths are required to complete ongoing professional development each year in order to maintain registration.

Osteopaths are Primary healthcare practitioners, meaning they are trained to recognise conditions that require medical referral.
