Osteopathy is a primary health care profession, specialising in the manual treatment of joint and muscle problems. The osteopath provides  hands-on treatment using manual techniques to release tight muscles, stretch ligaments and joint capsules, and mobilise joints.

 The goal of the osteopath is to provide a comprehensive patient assessment  and thereby discover the  pain causing factors. An osteopathic evaluation looks for biomechanical, orthopaedic, and postural dysfunction in the body.

The success of osteopathy lies in its ability to assess and treat the dysfunctions found.  In order to correct the problem, the osteopath may need to treat areas other than just the painful ones.

Having thorough knowledge of the basic medical sciences in addition to having undergone extensive clinical training, the osteopath is equipped to make a specific evaluation and treatment plan.

Through his skill of palpation (highly developed sense of touch) and precision of treatment application the osteopath is successful in relieving joint related pain.
