What is conjured in your mind when you hear
or see the word 'osteopath'? Probably something along the lines of back pain,
neck pain, and maybe headaches. But osteopathic care is so much more than just
looking at pain.
You aren’t the only one in Newcastle I can
assure you!
But this blog is going to concentrate on
what a truly great osteopath will concentrate on when aches, pains and troubles
become too much.
But first….I want to dispel an unbelievable
myth.
Pain is a symptom, not a problem. Yes you
read that correctly….pain is not the problem! And that’s where a great
osteopath will excel in helping you get rid of that horrid symptom.
When looking at what causes pain, typical
osteopathic care will not just concentrate on your symptoms. A good osteopath,
such as the ones at our Newcastle clinic, will look at the lifestyle factors
that brought the pain on. A good osteopath will take in to account past
injuries, current niggles, significant traumas and other such mitigating
factors that will continue to 'bug' you for weeks, months or even years.
Shield Clinic has a growing reputation
amongst the people in Newcastle as a progressive and forward thinking
osteopathic care clinic, offering top class treatment coupled with advanced
technology to help us identify the true causes of your pain, and not just to
gloss over the symptoms.
