Osteopathy is a treatment which looks at your whole body, taking all the systems into account. Rebecca uses a variety of gentle techniques directed at improving and correcting the mechanics of your body to bring the systems back into balance. If the structure of your body is aligned and free to move, then it will function a lot better. Its like your car, if it is not working well mechanically, then it will not function well. Your Osteopath is like a mechanic for your body.
Rebecca has been helping people with pain and discomfort for 10 years. She can help with pain anywhere in the body. Head, neck, shoulders, arms, back, legs feet - whether its an ache, stabbing pain, pins and needles or hot/cold sensation, it could be helped by Osteopathic treatment.

THE CONSULTATION
A medical history will be taken to get a picture of how your body is working generally. Then Rebecca will examine how your body moves, and determine the areas of mechanical strain in the body that need treatment. Care is taken to make you feel comfortable during the treatment with the clothing remaining on, or appropriate use of towels.
During the treatment, soft tissue techniques will be used such as myofascial release, trigger point inhibition, muscle energy technique and biodynamic craniosacral therapy. These are combined with joint treatments such as articulation and mobilisation to restore the balance between the musculo-skeletal, nervous, circulatory, gastrointestinal and lymphatic systems of the body. A dry needling technique may also be used in the treatment if required.
Rebecca has treated professionals in many different sports over the years such as AFL, basketball, cricket, water polo and swimming. She is dedicated to educating sports people in the benefits of Osteopathy as an effective treatment as well as prevention of injury. She can help with flexibility and pain and stiffness in all sports.
Being a musician, Rebecca has a special interest in treating pain in musicians and working to correct postural problems to prevent pain and injury.
