Osteopathy for Lower and Upper Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek osteopathic care — and it’s no surprise. When your back hurts, even simple daily tasks like tying your shoes or getting out of bed can become a real challenge.

Back pain can develop for many reasons, including poor posture, awkward lifting, sudden movements, a lack of support from your mattress, or strain from sports or workplace activities. It’s also common during pregnancy or as part of the natural wear and tear that comes with age.

Osteopaths use a variety of hands-on techniques — such as joint mobilisation, stretching, soft tissue massage and gentle manipulation — to help relieve discomfort, restore movement and support the body’s natural healing process.
