About the Business
Osteopathy is an established recognised system of diagnosis and treatment looking at the whole body system. Developed in the 1850s, medicine of the time had few answers and many questions to musculo-skeletal problems. One practitioner in particular, Andrew Taylor Still, was inspired to 'start again' from scratch by looking in detail at the skeleton and its muscular attachments, nerve tracts and blood supply. This led to the concept that, with a completely balanced and efficient system, the body would be able to repel 'dis-ease'. At Poole Bay, we view the body not just a series of organs bolted together but as a whole working structure. Efficient interaction between the structure of the body and the functions required of it will produce good health. The human body has the amazing ability to regenerate and repair itself and we hope to realise this in all our patients.
