How would Nathan describe himself as an Osteopath?
Nathan treats with a heavy emphasis on patient education and rehabilitation, with the goal in mind to improve patient confidence in themselves and their bodies. You can expect a combination of hands on treatment mixed with some form of individualised exercise when being treated by Nathan.
Nathan enjoys treating conventionally, in addition to excelling his patients physical capacity throughout their day to day life or in specific sports. He does this by utilising rehabilitation programs, home care and ergonomic advice.
