Osteopathic treatment is an extremely safe and natural approach to healthcare which works with the body’s own heath and repair mechanisms.
Osteopathy is a recognised health profession, and has the same safeguards that you would enjoy if you visited a doctor or a dentist.
Osteopathic treatment is gentle, some approaches are so soothing that the strongest sensation is of warmth, relaxation and tension being drawn out of the body.
Appointments are £75 for a first appointment, and £60 for a follow up appointment. Additionally, extended follow up appointments lasting one hour are £75.
A ‘hello baby check’ is £75 and a percentage of this will be donated to Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity and the Special Care Baby Unit at Jessops.
