Endometriosis
Endometriosis can be a challenging and often debilitating condition, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. We understand the impact endometriosis can have on your quality of life and we’re here to offer compassionate support and tailored management plans.
Osteopathy can play a valuable role as part of a multidisciplinary team in the management of endometriosis.
Our Osteopath Dr Indigo Clyde has recently completed a course in the conservative management of endometriosis, equipping her with skills to support patients with this complex condition.
Using gentle, hands-on techniques, we aim to reduce inflammation, improve lymphatic drainage and restore mobility to affected tissues. Our treatment plans are personalised to your specific symptoms and concerns.
Beyond manual therapy, we collaborate closely as part of your interdisciplinary team to provide comprehensive support for all aspects of living with endometriosis. Our holistic approach aims to help you regain control over your health and well-being.
If you’re struggling with endometriosis and searching for an addition to your interdisciplinary team, schedule your appointment today with Dr Indigo Clyde.
