Janine Leach Osteopath

Osteopathy was founded by Dr AT Still in America in 1874. It is a system of healing which aims to improve the structure and function of the musculo-sketetal system in order to relieve pain, improve circulation and restore healthy function of the body as a whole. Cranio-sacral therapy is applied to the head and down the spine, gently unwinding deep tensions, especially following a difficult birth, head injury, whiplash injury or emotional shock. Naturopathy is a multi-disciplinary approach to health that aims to strengthen the body's own healing powers, through better nutrition, hydrotherapy, natural remedies, de-toxification, physical therapy, and promotion of a healthier lifestyle.

This is a specialised, evidence-based osteopathic protocol for chronic fatigue syndrome. It combines therapy from the practitioner with advice for patients about self-management using massage, gentle exercises, specific supplements and lifestyle changes.
