My Approach
Dr Cox's method is of a constitutional approach where he assists your body to find your most neutral position. This is where the body expends the least amount of energy to maintain good posture. While promoting healthy tissues and healing, the effect of which reduces pain.
​
When we are in pain or have tissue dysfunction, the body compensates for this causing poor alignment and posture. Over a period of time this becomes your normal but over that same time, tissues start to dysfunction and therefore cause pain.
​
A problem in your neck could be from a referred dysfunction elsewhere such as misalignment of the pelvis. Without treating the cause and just treating the neck pain the problem will not resolve.

Cranial osteopathy practised by Michael in conjunction with traditional osteopathy, is a refined and subtle style of treatment that uses very gentle pressure to encourage the release of stresses throughout the body, including the head. Cranial osteopathy can be applied to any condition requiring physical treatment and can have a relaxing effect on the body.
