Growing Bones: Osteopathy & Movement Therapy
We work with people from all stages of life to reduce pain, fix musculoskeletal issues and improve your overall well-being. We believe the body is one of the greatest healers and each of our treatments are directed at treating your body holistically to help bring about postural alignment, optimal blood flow and a healthy nervous system.

Whether your problem is physical like back pain, sciatica, pelvic pain, postural concerns. Or something more internal like headaches & migraines. We offer holistic care to help get your body back in balance. And get you and your family feeling more like yourselves again. Physical pain can prevent you from doing the things you love and enjoying life.
Services
We only adhere to hire the most highly trained staff available to provide expert quality care & treatment. We have a holistic team of practitioners that work together to ensure that we're getting you the best results for your pain, mobility and quality of life. Here's just a few things that set us apart from other Osteos in Melbourne.
The growing bodies of babies and children are literally sculpted by the way they use them. In our early years it is body function, body movement, environmental and muscular forces that inform our structural growth. Holistic osteopathy for babies and children promotes balanced body posture and optimal body function throughout the early years to give little bodies a head start.
Please note if a receptionist cannot answer your call, you may be diverted to an answering service. Please leave a message and we'll get back to you ASAP. Easy to locate in the heart of Yarraville shopping district, our clinic ensures patient privacy while providing a bright and cosy environment to facilitate relaxation during treatment.
As a Melbourne Osteopath we work with people from all stages of life to reduce pain, increase musculoskeletal flexibility and strength, and improve posture so you can live your best life. From newborn babies, new mums going through pregnancy, sports injuries and the elderly.

We believe the body is one of the greatest healers and each of our treatments are aimed at treating your body holistically to help bring about postural alignment, optimal blood flow and a healthy nervous system.This gives your body the best opportunity to heal itself. Using our knowledge, experience and compassion we develop treatment plans designed uniquely for you the person, not the problem.
Osteopathy for babies helps release physical tension, address movement concerns, promote body symmetry and encourages optimal physical function in newborns. We have special interest and years of experience working with infants, and have multiple osteopaths who are recognised as advanced paediatric osteopaths with additional training and focus.

Really impressed! Beautifully presented, clean clinic with excellent hygiene practices in response to covid-19. I saw Paris and she really listened and took the time to address each individual concern and I felt great after our session. I also liked that they use lovely smelling natural products around the practice, like for the massage creams and hand soaps.

A beautiful clinic with friendly staff and great services. Specialist care for during and post-pregnancy are especially great. All practitioners I’ve seen (massage and osteo) have given me great exercises and advice to help between treatments.

I was 8 months pregnant when I decide to see an osteopath for my really bad lower back pain. Melissa was super helpful and efficient during the appointment, talking through what she was doing/ massaging and what was wrong In my body. Would definitely recommend and go back if needed.

I can’t recommend this place enough.
The practitioner I had, Jessica, had an excellent bedside manner. Explained everything she was doing as she went along, made me relaxed in a place I usually would have anxiety in. I’m actually pretty sad that I’m all fixed up, which means I won’t be going there anymore. The best.

My 8 year old son saw Stephanie and she was amazing!! Stephanie connected with my son on his level, made him feel safe and protected. He understood her instructions and is looking forward to his next appointment.

That is a place I 100% recommend. Our son benefited from treatment when he was 10 days old and then in 3 months time. His sleep and mood are much better now. We also got advice on what sort of exercises we should do with him to release any tension from his neck, shoulder and back.

I've been attending the clinic for almost 6 years now. Osteopathy has helped me recover from pain and injury before kids, during pregnancy and beyond. Now my whole family attends, Melissa and Elizabeth have been wonderful with my babies, gentle treatment and practical advice. Oh and I LOVED pregnancy massage here, and thank goodness for Lauren the pelvic floor physiotherapist who saved my pelvic floor!!

Such wonderful services.
I have been seeing Kirsten from 20weeks pregnant to postpartum. The care and treatment she provides is fantastic, with an obvious knowledge and passion for the anti and postnatal period.

We've seen 3 practitioners at Growing Bones, & each of them have been amazing. Melissa has helped our baby with pre & post tongue tie issues, Steph has helped with my post pregnancy body, & Sonya gave me one of the most nourishing massages of my life. The clinic is easy to find, is very child friendly & has 2 hr parking right out front. You can even book your appointments online! I'm so glad we found this practice to take care of our little family.
