Due to continued growth Osteopath Zena Hewett has made the decision to move into Halls Orchard Barn, which is an easily accessible ground floor location with allocated parking, and disabled toilet facilities.

The new premises will enable other practitioners and therapists to provide extra services for all, with a second Osteopath also due to join later this year. Appointments will now be available on six days of the week, and will also continue to be offered on Saturdays and evenings.

Dynamic Osteopathy will be holding an Open Day in approximately a months time....watch this space for more information.

We look forward to welcoming you to our family practice soon!

  

Osteopath Zena Hewett talks at the Osteopaths annual convention 2008

Zena Hewett of Dynamic Osteopathy gave a talk to delegates at the national British Osteopathic Association (BOA) Convention in November 2008. She  presented her research into the posture of school children related to the furniture that they use during the school day.


Zena said, " This was a rare, and exciting opportunity to speak before my fellow colleagues at our annual professional gathering. I  became interested in the potential correlation between school furniture and poor posture following health issues with one of my own children. Support from my daughter's school in promptly changing her furniture heights along with osteopathic treatment meant she quickly recovered from debilitating musculoskeletal pain and headaches. Generally in this country there is a 'one-size-fits-all' policy to school furniture sizes, but our children do NOT come in just the one size! I wanted to look into whether this approach promoted appropriate posture in the children of a given group, allowing their body's structures and organs to function as they should. Afterall, the children of today are the adults...and osteopathic patients....of now and the future."
