04.01.2022 Biodynamic Osteopathy is a traditional form of osteopathy where we use our hands to connect with the health and treat the whole patient. The post-graduate curriculum in Biodynamic Osteopathy designed by James Jealous D.O. recognises the embryological forces that create our form also drive growth, development and healing throughout our lives. Dr. Jealous’ contribution to osteopathy continues and expands on the lifeworks of William Sutherland D.O. (founder of cranial osteopat...hy) and Andrew Taylor Still M.D. (founder of osteopathy). Osteopaths understand that the body has an innate capacity to heal and regenerate, influenced by the activity of the autonomic nervous system. Treatment co-operates with the laws of nature at work within our tissues, allowing the patient to come to a point of rest and stillness. Biodynamic osteopathy requires a very light touch to observe and perceive living anatomy. This creates an opportunity for the patient to re-establish their connection to the whole and release tension. Patients may feel a sense of ease and relaxation during the treatment. WHO IS IT FOR? Biodynamic Osteopathy is suitable for anyone who prefers a more indirect approach. At our clinic we use this treatment for: Babies Children Pregnancy Post-partum including birth trauma People with chronic or complex illnesses The elderly Physical and emotional trauma Osteopaths, Dr. Michelle Sherriff and Dr. Margaret Beckman have studied Biodynamic Osteopathy at a post-graduate level and are able to offer this treatment for all age groups.

02.01.2022 October is breast cancer awareness month Finding breast cancer early provides the best chance of surviving the disease. Remember you don’t need to be an expert or use a special technique to check your breasts. Changes to look for include: ~ a new lump or lumpiness, especially if it's only in one breast ~ a change in the size or shape of your breast... ~ a change to the nipple, such as crusting, ulcer, redness or inversion ~ a nipple discharge that occurs without squeezing ~ a change in the skin of your breast such as redness or dimpling ~ an unusual pain that doesn't go away. Most changes aren’t due to breast cancer but it’s important to see your doctor without delay if you notice any of these changes. For more information and to donate go to https://nbcf.org.au
