GC Osteopathy Dr Anna Potts joins GC Osteopathy to work alongside Dr Joyaa Antares. Her interests and skills align with the principles and core beliefs of GC Osteopathy.
Anna loves osteopathy because of its holistic approach. Rather than focusing only on your symptoms, she will focus on resolving the cause of your pain, or discomfort. Highly competent using a wide range of osteopathic techniques, Anna will employ those techniques as indicated. Your treatment is always gentle, considered and unhurried. You may be given exercises to address one or more concerns; eg helping to improve posture and the way your body moves, and massage techniques may be employed.
Your treatment is always individually tailored to you. Anna works with acute and chronic conditions and with injuries. She treats right across the age spectrum from babies to those in their 80s and 90s. These are some of the conditions and symptoms that Anna likes to treat – lower back pain, other areas of pain in your back and around your ribs, difficulties in your neck including neck pain, shoulder issues, joint pain in your hips, ankles and wrists, all kinds of knee problems and much more. She also likes helping people with headaches and TMJ disorder (jaw pain), and the musculoskeletal components of pelvic dysfunction, abdominal pain and digestive issues.
If your issue is sports related, be that an injury or simply wishing to improve an area of function, Anna will be able to assist. She has experience helping sportsmen and sportswomen.
Anna treats women in pregnancy and after the birth of the baby. Osteopathic care can help your body adapt to all the changes that take place across the months. Parents bring babies and toddlers to see Anna as they can benefit from osteopathy too. Follow this link to our page “Osteopathy for Babies”.
