Free Spinal and Postural Assessment

Complement your fitness with a free spinal and postural assessment.

Osteopathy is a method of diagnosis and treatment which is primarily concerned with the structural and mechanical failures of the body which give rise to pain and disability - usually relating to problems of bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments.

However because it is holistic in nature it also takes into account all the body’s systems (e.g. cardiovascular), the person and their lifestyle. Osteopaths work mainly with their hands using a wide variety of techniques such as soft tissue massage, gentle stretching and release of muscles, passive mobilisation of joints, rhythmical rocking movements and manipulation.

Individuals with sports injuries will often continue to do classes or train in an attempt to work the problem off. Whilst this can be successful occasionally, more often than not it makes the problem worse as other parts of the body compensate for the original injury.

A visit to the osteopath can result in a quicker healing process. Osteopathy & Sports Injury Clinic Monday 9am – 3pm, Wednesday 4pm – 9pm. To book contact reception on

    Sports Bra Information

    Why do I need a sports bra?

    Breasts are supported by the Coopers Ligaments, not muscle and unfortunately any form of exercise/movement means these ligaments will stretch causing breasts to sag.

    The ligaments will never go back to their original position. We therefore need to invest in a supportive sports bra which reduces movement by over 50%. There really is no point toning your legs and increasing your cardio fitness if you have droopy boobs at the end of it! You will also feel very uncomfortable if well endowed and not supported.

    But I already have a number of bras at home!

    PureLime Sports Bras are made from a premium fabric -“Tactel Aquator”. This is a moisture wicking, super soft polyamide designed to reduce irritation and allow freedom of movement and our breathable mesh panels and seam free cups prevent chaffing. Underwear made of cotton or polyester mix will hinder your workout resulting in a soggy, uncomfortable bra.

    Choosing the right bra for your workout

    Available in sizes S, M, L, XL.
