OSTEOPATHY

We begin with a thorough history of your condition or issue, giving you the chance to tell your story.

We then assess your movement and function to determine a diagnosis and treatment plan that is tailored for you and your goals.

We explain what the treatment plan will look like, which may involve some form of manual therapy, followed by exercise rehabilitation to get you stronger and moving better.

Our Team

Arie van der Merwe Osteopath After completing a Bachelor of Science and a Masters of Health Science (Osteopathy), I spent the last four years working in a variety of settings; private practice, aged care and football clubs. Through these experiences, I became proficient in diagnosing and treating a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, utilising manual therapy techniques (soft tissue release/massage, joint manipulation, dry needling) to improve patients symptoms and exercise rehabilitation to get them back moving freely. I have always been very active in sport, particularly in Athletics throughout my teenage years. I dealt with a lot of injury and chronic pain, often being left frustrated by the lack of results I achieved with various practitioners. This led to me becoming an Osteopath, motivating me to provide the solutions that a lot of people never receive. My goal of every session with a patient is to hopefully have them feeling more confident about their own body and their future than when they first walked through the door. My approach and treatment philosophy is often fairly simple: Calm sh*t down and build it back up. I want to get you less reliant on hands on treatment and more capable and confident to exercise and move freely. I know how it feels to be unable to enjoy the things you want to do, and I want to be able to work with you to achieve those goals.
