Osteopathy is a process focusing on diagnosis, rehabilitation and preventing disorders primarily of the body’s musculoskeletal system which includes joints, muscles, nerves and ligaments. The therapy is recognised as a primary healthcare profession and a manual medicine based on the clinical experiences of the American founder, Andrew Taylor Still (1828 – 1917).

The radial nerve is essential for extension of the elbow, wrist, and fingers, enabling functional hand positioning, grip release, and powerful upper-limb movements. It also provides sensory innervation to the posterior arm, forearm, and dorsum of the hand, contributing to protective sensation.

Injury to the radial nerve causes wrist drop, significantly impairing daily activities, making it clinically important in trauma, especially humeral fractures and nerve compression injuries.

Degeneration and spinal scoliosis can both significantly affect the nervous system by altering normal spinal structure. Degenerative changes such as disc thinning, osteoarthritis and bone spurs reduce cushioning between vertebrae. The narrowing of vertebral spaces where nerves exit can cause compression, irritation and inflammation.

Scoliosis adds abnormal curvature, placing uneven stress on vertebrae, joints and soft tissues. This imbalance may pinch or overstretch nerves and often accelerate degenerative changes. Together, these conditions heighten nerve sensitivity, lead to pain, tingling, radiating symptoms and reduced spinal mobility.

Osteopathy, Sports Massage & Nerve Entrapment

Nerve entrapment syndromes such as sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome or thoracic outlet syndrome all occur when a peripheral nerve is compressed or irritated, often by surrounding muscles, fascia, or bony structures. Common symptoms include pain, tingling, numbness and weakness along the affected nerve’s pathway. Conservative management, including manual therapies like osteopathy and sports massage, can play a significant role in alleviating these symptoms by targeting contributing musculoskeletal dysfunctions.

Our Story

Leagrave Therapy provides osteopathy, sports massage, walking analysis and medical acupuncture at the Leagrave Therapy Clinic in Luton, Leagrave which is opposite Lewsey Sports Park. Osteopathy is a process focusing on diagnosis, rehabilitation and preventing disorders primarily of the body’s musculoskeletal system which includes joints, muscles, nerves and ligaments. The therapy is recognised as a primary healthcare profession and a manual medicine based on the clinical experiences of the American founder, Andrew Taylor Still (1828 – 1917). He composed the term osteopathy, which derives from the Greek language ‘osteon’ meaning bone and ‘pathos’ which means suffering. Osteopathic medicine emphasises the relationship between the body’s structures that govern function. Osteopaths recognise that the body has a natural self healing mechanism and will observe the patient as a unit physically, psychologically and spiritually. Osteopaths use a wide range of hands-on treatment techniques including massage mobilisation or manipulation of joints, reinforced with lifestyle guidance, exercise and postural advice.
