Osteopaths Treating the cause of the pain
Warragul Osteopathic Clinic has been caring for the Baw Baw community for more than 10 years. They pride themselves on their team approach to care, individual patient rapport and commitment to continued professional development.
Osteopathy is a form of manual healthcare which recognises the important link between the structure of the body and the way it functions. Osteopaths focus on how the skeleton, joints, muscles, nerves, circulation, connective tissue and internal organs function as a whole unit.
All of the Osteopaths at their clinic have completed a five year university degree and are government registered primary healthcare professionals.
An osteopathic approach to treatment is unique; as it looks at the body as a whole unit with all parts interconnected and relying on each other to function at its optimum.
Dr Tania McDonald says, “Treatment is not just aimed at the site of pain, but often an osteopath will treat several regions of the body to address the true cause of the pain, or where the problem may have actually started.”
Osteopaths also give rehabilitation exercises and lifestyle advice to get you back on track as quickly as possible.
Common presentations at their clinic include low back pain and sciatica, neck pain and headaches, sports injuries, tendinitis, postural pain and problems, pregnancy related pain, arthritis, and children and babies. Osteopathy is a safe and gentle form of manual healthcare for all ages from newborns to the elderly.
The clinic is at 24 Gladstone Street, Warragul and is open Monday –Thursday 8.30am6.30pm, Fridays 8.30am-4.30pm, and Saturday mornings.
