Our Techniques

The techniques we use are based on the researched work of several eminent clinicians working mainly in the osteopathic field in North America, France, Belgium and Holland.

Some of the clinicians Helen Thomson has studied under include: Andry Vleeming. J.MA. Mens, Paul Chaffour, J.P. Barrall, Kerry P. Ambrogio, Frankz Busset, Wolf Schamberger. The courses have taken place in New York, Boston, Rotterdam and London.

These techniques have been accessible for many years, constantly being questioned and updated by successive generations of clinical researchers, and in which have been further developed and expanded upon by our clinicians.

The practice has evolved through the gradual introduction of researched modern techniques acquired at post graduate level in America, Holland and London.

What The Techniques Do

The specialist Physiotherapy techniques enable the clinician to assess skeletal, joint and muscle position looking for both mal-alignment and joint restrictions. The presence of these conditions would give rise to adaptive changes within the body, thus leading to discomfort and pain.

Our treatment objectives are to restore totalbody symmetry, balance joints and restore optimal skeletal position. This in turn,

Balances, Strengthen & Lengthens Muscles
Balances & Mobilises Joints
Unravels Tendons, Ligaments & Soft Tissue
Unravels Nerves, Blood Vessels & Lymph Vessels
Changes Position & Off Loads Diaphragm, Chest & Abdominal Organs
Aids Faster Recovery & Rehabilitation

Our techniques allow the clinician to evaluate and treat all of the systems which make up the human body, i.e.

Skeletal System - Bones & Joints
Myo-fascial System - Muscles, Tendons, Ligaments & Connective Tissue
Neural System - Brain, Spinal Cord, Nerves plus their Supportive Membranes
Visceral System - Lungs, Abdominal & Pelvic Organs & Diaphragm
Vascular System - Arteries, Veins & Lymphatic Vessels
Skin - Scar Tissue

A restriction, injury or dysfunction in one or more systems will impact on the whole body, giving symptoms of pain, pins & needles, numbness, reduced joint movement and swelling which is often far removed from the site of pain.
