Therapies

Natural healthcare at its best

Natural Healthcare

We are a diverse team at the Littlehampton Natural Health Centre, offering a fresh approach to health and well-being through a wide variety of therapies. We understand that one approach isn’t always what's needed and often a multi-disciplinary treatment plan can be more effective at achieving your long-term health aspirations. We aim to help people in the local community manage their pain, increase their mobility and return them to optimal health. We tailor our care to each patient and work alongside other each other and external healthcare providers to give you the best care available.

In addition to our Chiropractic and Massage services, we offer a range of complementary therapies to enable us to offer a comprehensive care service. As the body and mind function together, an issue or imbalance in one area can – left untreated – create further imbalances or outward symptoms. Instead of attending only to localised symptoms, we look to treat every individual holistically, that is as a whole. When approached in this manner, dramatic changes can be realised, creating profound effects on one's life.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a treatment derived from ancient Chinese medicine. Fine needles are inserted at certain sites in the body for therapeutic or preventative purposes.

Osteopathy

Patients will typically see an Osteopath when they are feeling restricted in their movement, they are experiencing pain/discomfort or wish to remain balanced and feel the benefit of regular adjustments (or a combination of all three!). An Osteopath can also help prevent problems by pinpointing potential sources of pain before they develop further.
 
Osteopaths are used to seeing people with pain in a wide variety of areas, and in some cases, treatment can be focused away from the problem area as it may be that the underlying cause is located at a different point on the body. This helps to treat the underlying cause as well as the presenting symptoms.
 
Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis aimed at restoring and maintaining balance to the entire body, promoting overall health and well-being. It looks to treat the individual as a whole and is not isolated to the specific symptoms. Osteopathy uses a combination of touch, physical manipulation, massage, and stretching to help improve the mobility of joints, relieve muscle tension and promote blood and nerve supply to connective tissues which in turn will help your body to return to a good state of health.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a non-invasive therapy that can be effective in promoting deep relaxation and well-being; reducing stress in people’s lives can be key to optimising good health and building resilience. It is a touch therapy that is based on the theory that different points on the feet, lower leg, hands, face or ears correspond with different areas of the body and reflexologists work these points and areas.
However reflexology is viewed, there can be no doubt that what it does provide is a time for relaxation where the client has one-to-one attention and supportive touch in an empathetic listening environment.
