ABOUT OSTEOPATHY

Osteopathy at Pilates Plus London

Osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on approach to healthcare that focuses on the relationship between the body’s structure and its ability to function and heal effectively. By treating the body as a whole, osteopathy aims to address the underlying causes of pain and discomfort rather than just managing symptoms.

At Pilates Plus London, our osteopaths use a range of manual techniques to improve mobility, reduce pain, support circulation, and encourage the body’s natural healing processes. Treatment is always tailored to the individual, taking into account your medical history, lifestyle, and specific needs.

Osteopathy can be effective for a wide range of conditions, including back and neck pain, joint and muscle problems, postural issues, sports injuries, headaches, and work-related strain. It can also be adapted for different stages of life, from pregnancy and childhood through to later years.

Our approach is calm, precise, and patient-centred. We work not only to relieve discomfort but also to improve long-term function, resilience, and overall wellbeing, often integrating osteopathic treatment with Pilates rehabilitation where appropriate.

WHEN YOUR BABY IS ON THE WAY

Pregnancy Osteopathy

Pregnancy places significant physical demands on the body as it adapts to support both mother and baby. Gentle pregnancy osteopathy is designed to help relieve discomfort, improve mobility, and support the body through these changes in a safe and effective way.

Treatment may help with back and pelvic pain, hip discomfort, postural strain, sciatica, rib pain, and general aches associated with pregnancy. Techniques are always adapted to each stage of pregnancy and carried out with care, comfort, and safety as the priority.

Our osteopaths work to support balance, reduce tension, and help the body adapt more easily to the physical demands of pregnancy, as well as preparing for labour and postnatal recovery.

FOR A BABY OR CHILD

Paediatric & Cranial Osteopathy

Paediatric and cranial osteopathy uses very gentle, precise techniques suitable for babies and children. Treatment focuses on supporting healthy development, comfort, and overall wellbeing.

Cranial osteopathy is commonly used for infants experiencing feeding difficulties, unsettled behaviour, sleep issues, head shape concerns, or tension following birth. For older children, osteopathy may support posture, coordination, growth-related discomfort, and recovery from minor injuries.

Every child is treated as an individual, with careful assessment and a calm, reassuring approach. Parents are fully involved, and treatment plans are explained clearly at every stage.

FOR ADULTS OF ALL AGES

General Osteopathy

General osteopathy is suitable for adults of all ages and addresses a wide range of musculoskeletal and functional issues. Treatment focuses on improving movement, reducing pain, and restoring balance throughout the body.

Osteopathy may help with back and neck pain, joint problems, muscle tension, headaches, sports injuries, postural strain, and work-related discomfort. Our osteopaths assess how different areas of the body interact, rather than treating symptoms in isolation.

Treatment is tailored to your specific needs and may include hands-on techniques, movement advice, postural guidance, and rehabilitation strategies. Where appropriate, osteopathic care can be combined with one-to-one Pilates rehabilitation to support long-term recovery and resilience.

YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT

What to Expect at Your First Osteopathy Appointment

Your first osteopathy appointment at Pilates Plus London is unrushed, thorough, and tailored entirely to you.

We begin with a detailed discussion about your medical history, current symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. This is followed by a physical assessment to understand how your body is moving and where restrictions or imbalances may be present.

Treatment will then be carried out using gentle, hands-on techniques appropriate to your condition, age, and comfort level. Our osteopaths explain what they are doing throughout the session and encourage questions at any time.

At the end of your appointment, you may be given advice on posture, movement, or exercises to support your recovery. Where appropriate, we may recommend ongoing osteopathic care or Pilates rehabilitation to support long-term results.
