Osteopathy uses manual treatment techniques such as deep tissue massage, stretching, joint mobilisation and manipulation to treat a range of musculoskeletal issues and assist in relieving pain and increasing mobility. Osteopathy takes a whole-body approach to injury and pain management. Thus, Osteopathic treatment looks beyond localised pain and considers whether your musculoskeletal system is functioning properly as a whole.
As Primary Health Care practitioners, our experienced Osteopaths can diagnose the cause of your complaint using a detailed medical history and physical examination. Your Osteopath will then tailor an individualised treatment plan incorporating manual treatment techniques with at-home nutrition, work and lifestyle advice.

I had my first reiki session and it was so much more than I could of hoped for.
I’ve had a tough year of feeling lost and my reiki session gave me the direction I needed to get back on my own path of what I’m meant to be doing. Sharry is kind, gentle, and compassionate. I am looking forward to working with Sharry again.

I love all that work at Holistic Bodyworks. I have gone to everyone at least once and each therapist and apprentice have something unique to offer. I especially love to get Myofascial Release with Sharry. She is so great at providing exactly what my body needs to feel better.

Autumn did an amazing job with my deep tissue massage! I felt completely comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire session. Her hands were strong and smooth. The lobby and room have a very relaxing feel and I wish my massage could have lasted for hours. I will definitely be back to see Autumn again.

I have pinched nerves in my neck along with awful sciatica pain in my right leg. I looked into myofscial release as a treatment option and it seemed interesting. I booked an appt with Jamie and honestly wasn’t expecting much (I’m new to all this but willing to try anything to help with the pain) but it was so great for me. After one session I’m no longer feeling a radiating pain from the sciatica, and there’s much less tension in my neck. My physical issues will require more work as they’re pretty intense, but I noticed a huge difference after just one session and will definitely be back

Very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Jamie is very good at explaining with what he's doing and what is happening with the body. He is easy to listen and talk with. Its great to see the crystals at work and the comparison from the beginning of Jamie's work to the end of his work. My bottom 3 chakras were going anti clockwise in the beginning and by the end, though they were going slowly, he got them to go in a clockwise direction so that the energy has more flow throughout the body. In the end he basically debriefed me which was a nice sum up and explanation with things to do to help with

I bought a Groupon for a one-hour reiki session. It took awhile to hear back from them, but I got the appt. set up the following week. It was a bit of a drive to me, but it was worth it to try out a new practice. It was easy to find and easy to park. Front desk was very warm and welcoming. Check in was quick and easy.
I feel bad for totally forgetting my reiki practitioner's name! He was really friendly and put me at ease as I was in a mood that day. This was the only session I've had where we talked the whole time, but I learned a lot of good info as I practice reiki myself. Overall, a good experience
