It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. I came to see Rupinder after having tried a lot of alternative treatments with both physios and chiropractors, almost having given up that I would ever feel pain free again Within the first 30 minutes consultation he had managed to not only put my mind at ease with his refreshing frank and direct style, but also worked out what was going on and also also provide treatment that helped ease my pain instantly I'm not cured by any means but for the first time in a long time I now can see light at the end of the tunnel and have found someone that not only understands my pain and symptoms but is also effective at solving them!

We are open every weekday, with early and late appointments available most days.

read moreThese are conditions which we know are backed by research findings. However, this is a rather 'un-osteopathic' way of looking at things: there is always a debate in the osteopathic profession about the "treatment of conditions". In our clinic in South Oxhey we profess to treat people, not conditions. Why is this? Don't we have enough proof of the efficacy of osteopathy in the treatment of such diseases as asthma, hypertension or athlete's foot? The problem is that "conditions" or labelled diseases are just that, labels: describing the symptoms is one thing, working out why they are occurring in a particular patient is quite another.

read moreIn our osteopathic clinic in Haddenham we see people with a wide range of problems. Usually there is something that hurts. It could be anything from a sore foot to a headache, but we are concerned not only with the symptoms but with what may underlie them. The first thing we need to do is to build up a picture of your problem: where it is, what it feels like; what makes it better, what makes it worse. So, we begin to get an idea of where the symptoms are coming from, what tissues are involved, what kind of process might be occurring.

read moreAll the osteopaths in our long-established South Oxhey clinic use a variety of osteopathic approaches. Osteopathy itself is a system of diagnosis and treatment which works with the structure and function of the body, to treat a wide range of conditions. Maintenance of optimal mechanical function is essential to good health. Problems in the body structure can disturb the circulatory system or nerves to any part of the body, and affect any aspect of health. Osteopaths aim to return the structure and function of the body to as near a state of balance and harmony as possible, to restore the whole person to a state of good health.

read moreThe commonest type of symptoms we notice in the back is the muscle aching we get from overdoing work or exercise - from digging in the garden, carrying heavy objects, playing sports, or maintaining a position too long at a computer or in a car. These aches normally disappear after a short while with stretches, hot baths and so on, and normally indicate muscle fatigue. Too much strain or too frequent repetition of a movement may damage the tissues around the facet joints at the back of the vertebrae - this may be very painful if it causes the local muscles to spasm or if it causes a build-up of inflammation.

Clinical Pilates, which is what we provide here at Haddenham Osteopaths - is designed to improve muscle and joint health as part of a pain or injury treatment plan. Pilates is great for strengthening the core muscle groups that can help keep you free from pain and injury. And if you're a guy, can we just take a moment to debunk a common myth? Don't be deceived by all the images of women in tights and leotards that seem to make up most of the promotional material around Pilates.
