Top Osteopathic Care in Newcastle

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.
