“I like Roseanne because she is gentle with her hands. She helps my body heal and feel better.” (Out of the mouth of 4 year old Lucas)

“Roseanne has been working with our son since he was three years old to help treat his joints from the effects of juvenile arthritis (JIA). She has been able to treat him effectively even when he was nervous or cranky! Her calm and friendly manner quickly reassures our son. Roseanne, we appreciate all the input and care you have given Lucas over the past 18 months.”

About Osteopathy

About Osteopathy

Osteopathy is a holistic form of health care which helps individuals improve or restore health and wellbeing. We use palpation to determine restrictions within the body including the fascia, muscles and joints.

Cranial Osteopathy

Cranial Osteopathy

This form of osteopathy uses a finely tuned sense of touch to observe subtle motion in the cranium. This is used to diagnose and treat a range of conditions. The treatment is very gentle and appropriate for babies, children and adults.
