Osteopathy is a gentle and effective hands-on approach to healthcare, based on the principle that the way your body moves influences how it functions. Osteopaths are highly competent healthcare professionals.
Acupuncture – Juli Stewart
In an Acupuncture treatment, fine needles are gently inserted, improving blood circulation by dilating the blood vessels and therefore, circulating oxygen more efficiently around the body. This results in decreasing inflammation, stimulating the release of pain-relieving beta-endorphins and generally relaxing the body, bringing back balance and relieving pain.
You may experience slight aching, heaviness, tingling or electric sensation traveling along a meridian. This is not unusual. If any discomfort is experienced, it is usually mild. Overall, your treatment should be virtually painless
Many patients will leave their first treatment relaxed. Others feel a difference by the next day. A course of 4-6 weekly, accumulated treatments is best to experience positive changes.
Patients with chronic conditions find a maintenance treatment every 4 or 6 weeks, keeps their issues manageable or at bay.

Homeopathy - Clare Norris
Homeopathy is a safe, gentle complete system of medicine, with no side effects, based on the principle of “like cures like”. It stimulates the body’s ability to heal itself. It is a complementary therapy which can be used alongside other treatments and conventional medicine.
It can be used through pregnancy, labour, for babies and children, all times of life, it is especially helpful for transitional stages, such as puberty and menopause.
Homeopathy treats the whole person with the symptoms, and not just the symptoms or disease name. During the first consultation you will be asked about what is concerning you most as well as your previous health history and any significant events in your life.
Length of treatment varies depending on how long you have had your symptoms. Time between appointments is generally 4 weeks, I may ask you to check in after 2 weeks to see how you’re doing.
