Osteopathy
Stuart Beardwell MA, BSc (Hons) Ost 2006
I graduated from the European School of Osteopathy, a school I selected because it had the most eclectic range of treatment approaches and taught Cranial Osteopathy at Undergraduate level. This allows me to adjust my treatment approach flexibly to the needs of the patient. I have become increasingly interested in the behavioral patterns and beliefs that underpin individuals health and dysfunction. It is important for the patient to understand the cause of their suffering and the things they can do to improve their situation. Small habitual acts can lead to great changes.
My treatment approach is practical and based on working with the patient to address habitual patterns that can be changed to effect rapid results.
