People in the community should not have to put up with joint and muscle pain, according to the team at Casey Osteopathic Health Service. Allied Health professionals (osteopaths) are considered an essential service and therefore remain open during these hard times. The team at Casey Osteopathic Health Services comprises of five osteopaths and a myotherapist, who work together to gain the best outcome for their patients.

Osteopathy is a drug-free, non-invasive manual therapy that aims to improve health across all body systems by manipulating and strengthening the musculoskeletal framework. Osteopaths use a wide range of techniques to treat musculoskeletal problems such as back and neck pain, headaches, joint pain, sports injuries, repetitive strain injury (RSI) and sciatica. Treatment is suitable for all ages, including children, the elderly, and for pregnant women. Osteopaths look for the cause of the problem and don’t just treat the symptoms.

Myotherapy is the systematic assessment and treatment of the muscles, and connective tissues of the body to assist in pain and injury management. Various treatment methods such as myofascial cupping, trigger point therapy, and dry needling as well as soft tissue manipulation can be used to provide the best possible outcome from the treatment.

Owner Dr Spyro Antoniou encourages patients to visit the Beaconsfield-based practice where they will be treated in a sanitised, hygienic environment with staff maintaining social distancing and other precautions where practicable.

“We are here to help during this difficult time. Our staff understand people’s concerns, and want to reassure our patients. We don’t want people living in discomfort during this time which is stressful enough without the added burden of pain.”
