Musculoskeletal Therapy

Sittingbourne Musculoskeletal & Back Clinic

Musculoskeletal Therapy and You

Improve your posture, technique and movement

Our physical health affects our mental health – when we can't do what we're used to, we can become very unhappy and this can lead to more physical as well as psychological problems. Musculoskeletal therapy can help you break this cycle. The clinic is run by Mark Smith who has had 35 years of Osteopathic experience and now operates as a Musculoskeletal therapist.

This 35 years of experience has led to a vast knowledge and understanding of how the human body works and how modern life affects it. This knowledge and the principle that each person is an individual enables Mark to give the best treatment and advice to clients.

Why Choose Us

35 years of experience is just the start

The Sittingbourne Musculoskeletal & Back Clinic was founded in 1990. Since then it has been successfully giving treatments to get you pain free, back to health, back to work and getting you back to doing the things you enjoy.

Pain doesn't have to be something you accept, nor do you have to give up activities that you love because your range of movement has reduced – musculoskeletal therapy can solve both problems and get you back to what you want to do.

Benefits of Musculoskeletal Therapy

What can Musculoskeletal Therapy help with?

Sports injury

Exercise is good for you, but if you play sport often, then you will be liable to repetitive strain injuries.

Chronic Pain

Musculoskeletal makeup can cause pain in other areas of the body.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture has been used for thousands of years, as a way of unblocking the channels that flow around the body.

Neck & Back Pain

These two areas of the body are often where patients feel tension and pain.

Flexibility & Mobility

Better flexibility supports every other area of treatment, helping everyday movement feel easier and more natural.

Acute Pain

Musculoskeletal Therapy can help relieve neck, back, shoulder, leg and muscular pain, and also help control headaches.

Ante/Post Natal

Musculoskeletal Therapy can help relieve pain during and after pregnancy, allowing you to enjoy this special time without pain.

Injury Rehabilitation

No-one wants to be injured, but if you are, Musculoskeletal Therapy can help get the body back to good health.

Shoulder & Joint Injury

The shoulder is a very complex joint with many things that can go wrong.

Session Information and Pricing

You will be asked to lay on the treatment table for manual manipulation and mobilisation of the problem area.

3

You will not need to undress, but do wear suitable, comfortable clothing.

4

You'll be given advice on lifestyle to help aid recovery and you may be given exercises to do at home.

We will then discuss a treatment plan to establish if another appointment is needed or advice on what to do if the problem recurs.
