Discover the Power of Relaxation Therapies at Kennington Osteopathic Practice, Oxford.

Hey there! I'm Sophie, Osteopath at the Kennington Osteopathic Practice, Oxford, ideally located for Oxford and Abingdon patients. Today, I'm thrilled to dive into the transformative world of my popular treatments and relaxation therapies, including Relaxation Massage, Gua Sha Facial Massage and Pregnancy Massage.

Picture this: a serene space, gentle hands guiding you towards relief, and a personalised approach to wellness that focuses on relaxation as the core element. That's what we're all about here.

At my practice, I'm passionate about blending the science of osteopathy with the art of relaxing massage. It's not just about addressing the physical symptoms; it's about understanding the mind-body connection and how it influences your overall well-being.

During lockdown, I found a considerable increase in stress-related issues presenting in the clinic. I wanted to be able to treat patients' mental and physical health; thus, Relaxation therapies were born.

Why relaxation therapies with an Osteopath, you might wonder?

Let me break it down for you. Osteopathy is all about enhancing your body's natural ability to heal itself. Combining osteopathy's expertise, skills, and anatomical knowledge with relaxation therapy Abingdon can create a harmonious environment where your body can unwind, reset, and recover. Over 70% of patients are asleep within the first 20 minutes.
