What can Osteopathy do for the sportsperson?

Mobility of the body is of the utmost importance to the sportsperson. Poor flexibility in the joints and muscles, will prevent the body from performing at its optimum and is often a contributory element to injury. By assessing the posture and condition of those structures which make the human body a dynamic machine (The bones, joints, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues), the osteopath is able to promote a rapid recovery from injury.

Osteopathy can help prevent as well as treat injuries. It is particularly effective for sports that require controlled body mechanics such as golf and tennis.
