Tara has spent the majority of her career working in Regional Victoria and has developed a great understanding of what makes regional areas what they are, and the health concerns that can come with it. Being aware of few choices when it came to alternatives for care, Tara established the clinic in 2001 to aim to fill this void.
Osteopathy uses a holistic approach in addressing an individual, it focuses not only on the problem area but considers the impact other body regions and systems may have to your complaint. Osteopathy uses manual techniques focused on total body health, treating and strengthening the musculoskeletal framework and promoting the effects of the nervous, circulatory and lymphatic systems.
A usual Initial Osteopathic Consultation consists of a Case History, a detailed Osteopathic Examination and Treatment if appropriate, usually lasting between 30mins and 1hour depending on your condition. You will be asked about your complaint, your medical history, any medications that you take and other questions your Osteopath may need answered in working out the best way forward that may not appear directly related to your problem.
Osteopathy was founded by the American doctor, Dr. Andrew Taylor Still in 1874. Dr. A.T. Still had found he was able to clear his own headaches by manipulating and massaging his neck. From there he began to investigate the manipulation of the joints which he believed would release the body's abilities to heal itself and in doing so has developed the Osteopathy we know today.
