Over 60s
As we age, mobility is key to independence and well-being. But the ageing process results in physiological changes in body tissue; we lose elasticity and our ability to recover. This can adversely impact agility and movement.
Osteopathy may reverse typical ageing patterns by reducing soft tissue tensions, improving fluid movement and drainage and increasing joint freedom. Many people report that after osteopathic treatment, they feel supple and can carry out daily routines more easily.
Osteopaths are general health care practitioners and are recognised providers by Veterans Affairs and Medicare funded Chronic Disease Management Scheme. You may like to discuss your eligibility with your general practitioner as a medical referral is required in these cases.
