The effects of ageing on the body’s structure give rise to symptoms, including:
- Generalised early morning stiffness and reduced mobility
- Lower back pain and stiffness
- Neck, shoulder, arm or hand pain
- Hip, knee and foot pain
- Arthritic pain and joint swelling
Osteopathy can help to relieve these distressing symptoms and can also help with:
- Rehabilitation following surgery/joint replacement (for example: back, hip or knee)
- Keeping shoulders, hands and wrists mobile for tasks of daily living, including cooking, writing and driving
- Avoiding or delaying the need for surgery
- Exercise prescription
