Hello! I’m Nicola

Nicola is drawn to osteopathy by its holistic philosophy and gentle hands on approach. She values the large range of techniques available to osteopaths that enable her to care for clients of all ages and treat a wide variety of conditions.
‘I particularly love working with clients over a longer term, to truly unravel their mechanical puzzle. The result is longer lasting balance and optimised function.’

What I Offer
Nicola has a passion for caring for and empowering the ‘whole person’. She believes that good health is a daily practice for which each individual is responsible. As a health practitioner, her role is to guide, facilitate and educate, ultimately empowering clients towards greater health. Her approach to healthcare strives to be holistic and takes into consideration all factors that affect health.
Osteopaths primarily see people for the management of pain and injury. Practitioners use a combination of manual therapy, movement and health education strategies to promote health. Osteopathy is considered a holistic modality, that aims to dynamically balance the whole body, using a global or systems thinking approach to care.
Conditions that osteopaths commonly see are:
- Postural aches and pains
- Joint pain and arthritis
- Neck pain, back pain and sciatica
- Headaches and migraines
- Pelvic pain and Jaw pain
- Muscle strains and tears
- Ligament sprains
- Tendon injuries and bursitis
- Repetitive strain injuries (RSI)
- Sports and Occupational Injuries
- Pregnancy pain and post natal care
Nicola also cares for babies, children and adolescents of all ages.
