MyOsteo

MyOsteo Osteopaths realise that within every person there are inherent self-healing and self-regulating mechanisms.

Osteopaths assist, accelerate and enhance this natural healing process.

28/01/2026

Ever wondered what actually happens during an osteopathic treatment? It’s rarely the dramatic twisting or stretching you might imagine. Instead, it’s usually a gentle easing - subtle, steady, and often surprisingly liberating.
Your osteopath begins by watching how you move in very ordinary ways: how you turn your head, bend forward, reach for something, or shift your weight when you stand. No Cirque du Soleil-worthy contortions required. As the session unfolds, the hands-on work isn’t about “fixing” you, but about helping your body reveal where it’s holding tension and where it can soften and heal. The appointment usually ends with personalised guidance to help you carry that ease back into your everyday movements.

You might think you need to run a marathon 🏃‍➡️ or blast through a high-intensity workout for your movement to “count” - and brilliant if you enjoy that - but your body also thrives on the small, surprising stuff.
Mindfully sinking into a squat to pick something up, bear-walking your way up the stairs, or giving your feet a slow stretch before you even step out of bed all help keep your musculoskeletal system mobile and balanced. And if you want a little more, a gentle ten minute stretch session will do you a world of good!
If you’re feeling stiff or out of rhythm, the osteopaths at myOsteo are here to help support your mobility and ease those daily niggles. Hop online to book an appointment.

📚 Let’s take a moment to appreciate a word that quietly carries a great deal of biological importance - lymphatic.
The term comes from the Latin ‘lympha’, meaning water or clear spring. 💧 This root also relates to ‘nymph’, the mythological spirits of water and nature - a poetic nod to the lymphatic system’s clear, fluid-based pathways that move like hidden streams through the body. The adjective ‘lymphaticus’ appeared in medical Latin around the 17th century, and by the eighteenth century physicians were using the “lymphatic system” to describe the network of vessels responsible for fluid balance, immune defence, and waste transport.
Osteopathic techniques work to encourage lymph flow, reduce tissue congestion, and support recovery - a reminder that this “watery” word has powerful clinical relevance.
Even the most clinical terms can have poetic origins! What’s your favourite whacky word fact? Let us know in the comments below. 👇

Fun Fact of the Day 🧠

Did you know your skull isn’t fully solid bone until your mid-20s? The process called ossification — where cartilage gradually turns into bone — continues well into early adulthood.

This means young adults’ skulls are still a bit more flexible and resilient, which can affect how their head and neck respond to impacts or strain.

That’s why wearing a properly fitted bike helmet is so important, especially for younger riders. It helps protect that developing skull from injury.

From an osteopathic perspective, the ongoing ossification means gentle care is essential for children and young adults. We work to support healthy growth, alignment, and mobility of the head and neck structures as they mature.

Hop online to make an appointment with an osteopath at myOsteo. We’re here to help keep your head—and body—healthy and supported.

🤯 Your headache might feel like it’s “all in your head,” but the science tells a more intricate story. Many headaches originate from biomechanical and neurovascular dysfunctions in the cervical spine and upper thoracic region. Tight muscles, restricted joints, and altered postural mechanics can compress cervical nerves, distort vertebral alignment, and impede blood flow - all of which increase nociceptive input to the trigeminocervical complex, the brainstem hub that integrates sensory signals from the neck and head. Over time, this sensitises the central nervous system, turning minor tension into full-blown headaches.
Osteopathy works to address these underlying mechanisms to recalibrate pain signalling and support your body’s innate self- regulation. In essence, it’s about rewiring tension, rebalancing flow, and resetting your headache circuitry.

Everybody is different. In fact, no two bodies are the same — and that’s exactly how it should be. Some of us are naturally more flexible, flopping around like the scarecrow, while others might feel like the Tin Man, a bit stiff in the joints and needing a good oiling! Height, neck length, foot shape — all these anatomical givens shape how you move and hold yourself.

There’s no perfect posture or movement to copy because your body’s blueprint is unique. At myOsteo, our osteopaths help you work with your individual structure to move comfortably and confidently through life – so you can get on with being that first-rate version of yourself in all the ways that matter.

Hop online to book an appointment with one of our osteopaths today. Let’s help you be the best version of you. 💫

‘Knot’ feeling too good?
Struggling with tension and looking for some extra at-home massage options between osteo appointments? Try these targeted techniques:

🔸 Plantar fasciitis? Roll a frozen water bottle under the arch of your foot for 5–10 minutes to reduce inflammation and gently stretch the fascia.

🔸 Tension in your jaw (TMJ issues)? Use your fingertips to apply small, slow circles just in front of your ears and along the cheekbone — no digging, just enough to feel movement in the muscle.

🔸 Tight shoulders or glutes? Lean against a wall with a tennis ball placed between your body and the wall. Roll slowly to find a tender point, then pause and breathe — let the pressure sink in rather than forcing it.

🔸 Forearm strain from typing? Use your opposite thumb to stroke firmly (but comfortably) along the length of the forearm muscles, from elbow to wrist, staying just off the bone.

Self-massage should feel relieving, not bruising. If tight spots keep coming back, there may be an underlying postural or mobility issue.

Trust the Body’s Blueprint 🌿
Your body’s not just a collection of parts - it’s a living, learning network that’s constantly adapting. Every movement, every breath, every heartbeat feeds back into that brilliant internal blueprint, guiding how you heal and function.
Osteopathy taps into that adaptability. By improving movement and easing mechanical strain, it helps the body rewrite unhelpful patterns - whether that’s muscle tension from long hours at a desk or compensations after an old injury.
It’s not about quick fixes, but clever rewiring - helping your body remember how to move, balance, and thrive the way it was designed to.
To explore how osteopathy might support your body’s natural blueprint for health, jump online to book an appointment. 🌿

📚 Word of the Day: Finger

The word finger traces all the way back to Proto-Germanic fingraz, related to fingan — “to grasp” — and that’s exactly what they help you do. From gripping a pen to opening a jar, to texting and typing your fingers are among the most expressive and precise tools you own. 🖐️

But what really grasps our attention is how much has to go right to make them move.

Take typing. Your brain sends a signal down your spinal cord, along nerves through the neck and shoulder, all the way to the muscles in your forearm. Tendons pull on tiny bones in your fingers, joints flex and extend, and your skin registers the feel of each key. But when things go wrong — for instance when carpal tunnel compression kicks in — that smooth sequence can become painful or clumsy.

Our osteopaths are here to help with that, addressing the mobility, alignment, or tension issues that affect this chain of movement.

Hop online to book an appointment. We’ll help you give carpal tunnel syndrome the finger (you know which one!)

Pulled your hamstring? We’re here to help. 🦵

Hamstring strains are one of the most common muscle injuries — and they don’t just happen to sprinters. A sudden stretch, a missed warm-up, or even fatigue can lead to pain at the back of the thigh that makes walking, bending, or climbing stairs uncomfortable.

Our osteopaths look beyond the strain itself. We assess how your pelvis, lower back and leg muscles are working together, helping to ease tension, support healing, and reduce the risk of re-injury.

Hop online to book an appointment and start your recovery.
