Patient-Centred Osteopathy at The How Osteopathic Clinic

Osteopathic treatment at the How Osteopathic Clinic is tailored to the individual and a combination of osteopathic techniques including Traditional Osteopathy, Cranial Osteopathy, Electrotherapy, Vibrotherapy and Sports Remedial Massage may be used to treat your condition.

The How Osteopathic Clinic in Edinburgh is also one of the only osteopathic clinics in Scotland to use Shockwave Therapy, a gentle and effective adjunct to quality rehabilitation and hands on osteopathy.  Rehabilitation is a slow progressive and some people it takes from 4 months to a year or two that is because we all forget that one cannot speed up the natural biological of cellular tissue repair and the cells repair more slowly as we get older so the journey of rehabilitation can be longer with various ups and downs

From the beginning of training to be an Osteopath as the European School of Osteopathy, all Osteopaths prescribe exercises.  Helen did Core Stability or Pilates many years ago with Mark Buckingham Physiotherapist

Helen continues to learn with many physiotherapists Injuries Prevention and Rehabilitation  Here is a list with the links for the Courses held throughout the UK and Globally for other Healthcare Professionals, Physiotherapists Osteopaths and others as Helen is always being asked for details of these brilliant courses

Very Effective Treatment at a Very Reasonable Cost

I have been going to Helen for over 18 months now and have been delighted with the results. Over the years I have had various forms of treatment from different private health care therapists. These treatments have been expensive, with extremely short appointments and in the long term were ineffective. Helen’s treatments by contrast are half an hour or an hour long and have been extremely effective.

The combination of traditional osteopathic manipulation and massage techniques that Helen uses alongside use of her flexomatic massage machine and the NMES, or shockwave therapy has been a great combination for me. Overall I’m delighted I found Helen…not only is she a great osteopath but she is also always very kind and welcoming.

Helen will always provide rehabilitation exercises or suggest returning to your General Practitioner for other options and medical assessments Helen would like to thank Beony Mathews and Glen Robbins and many other physiotherapists for their excellent lecturers which you can see here
