Osteopathy
Recovery and restoration in a nurturing, personal space
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a form of manual-therapy that’s based on the philosophy that body parts work together, rather than separately in providing their full function. This means that Osteopaths seek to understand you and the core drivers that have set you up with pain or an unresolved injury.
What does an Osteopath do?
When you come in for a session an Osteopath will spend time in your first sessions together unravelling all the details of your health concerns, they’ll then look at your body through a biomechanical lense (fancy) and then get their trusty hands into the right spots.
They’ll draw on a variety of techniques such as soft tissue, joint mobilisation, exercise prescription, dry needling and stretching.
Depending on what’s going on, they might recommend particular types of exercise, like Clinical Pilates / Exercise as a further support to your recovery and wellbeing.
At Good Self we’re geared up to also provide care for those on Medicare Enhanced Primary Care schemes as well as WorkSafe, TAC and NDIS.

Clinical Pilates / Exercise
Clinical Pilates/Exercise sessions that are designed to help reduce pain, build strength after an injury and to help people age well.
Clinical Pilates is ‘active’ therapy, because we know that movement is key to recovery!
Our Osteopaths are also qualified in Clinical Pilates / Exercise and in addition to providing hands-on care, create personalised exercise programs and run group Clinical Pilates / Exercise classes in our beautiful Pilates Studio.

She particularly leans towards getting to the bottom of complex and chronic issues, often where nothing else has helped in the past. Sonya has an empathetic and curious nature and wants nothing more than to help people who can’t help themselves.
