What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a successful and safe way of detecting and treating troubled muscles, joints, ligaments and nerves.  Your Osteopath will unwind and release compressions, strains and torsions that build up in the body and cause symptoms.  When the body is balanced and efficient it will function with energy and vitality.
 
Diagnosis
The diagnostic skills used in osteopathy are based on a precise study of types of “somatic dysfunction”. Here, the pattern of movement of the body’s structures can localise poor function.  Most commonly it is the muscles and soft tissues of the body that have become distorted.

At the Buddha Bar:
Dr Philip Latey (Osteopath) is one of Australia’s most experienced “integrative” practitioners.
After a thorough study of health status and history, Dr. Phil explores all the body impacts and torsions that modern life imposes.  He uses slow unwinding, decompression and deep soft tissue techniques to release acute or chronic seizures.
His aim is to encourage smoother function and much livelier vitality of the whole person.  With many years of practice he does very well with severe complex problems like crippling migraines, arthritis and many other stubborn ailments.
Phil keeps up a tactful and light-hearted conversation that can help with stress management.
Occasionally quick manipulations are helpful, but only with the patient’s consent.
Appointments are available on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays at the Buddha Bar.
