Metabolic Health
Osteopathic principles recognise the body's ability to heal itself given appropriate lifestyle conditions such as healthy eating habits, regular exercise, good sleep quality, stress reduction and a strengthening of social connections. This approach is reflected in rehabilitation guidelines that accompany treatment. To help encourage tissue recovery from injuries and disease processes it is important to lower inflammation and improve functioning of the body systems. Cultivation of metabolic health aims to achieve this by maintaining adequate body weight and blood pressure in addition to optimising sugar, fat and cholesterol levels in the blood. When we are metabolically healthy our immune system is stronger, we are less likely to suffer from disease and our quality of life improves.
Therapeutic approach
A metabolic health consultation focuses on your specific needs and expectations. Advice is customised to your individual requirements and given according to my professional opinion. The purpose of the consultation is to guide you in cultivating a lifestyle that includes healthy eating habits and the means to improve sleep quality and reduce stress. In addition, a physical training programme is provided in accordance with your age and underlying medical conditions. Treatment aims to improve health, reduce inflammation and relieve symptoms associated with impaired metabolic health.
