Yes, Boroondara Osteopathy was established in 2004, and we’ve been working within the Balwyn North since then.

Our interests lie in many approaches to the human body as each person who enters our space will require a tailored treatment plan. We are all individuals with different histories and day-to-day stresses that impacts us all in different ways.

To accommodate the spectrum of causes of body pain and discomfort we may use:

• soft tissue massage & stretching
• joint mobilising and release
• positional release of tissues
• craniosacral therapy
• movement therapy (AiM)

We do. There are a number of practitioners in our clinic that treat babies for many reasons ranging from head-turning issues to gut and colic upset. We also offer tongue tie assessment and therapy for babies. Shoot to our Babies & Osteopathy page HERE.

For sure! It’s a valuable tool we have in our toolkit as we work to decipher each person’s needs for manual therapy treatment. We also offer stand-alone craniosacral appointments as well as incorporating it into other appointment when indicated. You’re going to love what we do in this field. Book in today.

It certainly can be the game-changer you’re after for your pregnancy. Pregnancy presents its own body challenges for women and is a rewarding area of practice given the outcomes that can be experienced. Our osteopaths are great at finding the areas that also relate to your pain development so alongside the manual therapy, we will work with you to provide exercises for you to keep working on the best pregnancy body you can have. Book in now and start feeling empowered to get to where you want to be this pregnancy!  

And just a heads-up, we are also the Melbourne Mastitis Clinic, a highly skilled and dedicated service for breast health with breastfeeding!

The short answer is yes. Our advanced knowledge in biomechanics, up-skilled with Anatomy in Motion, means we look beyond the bowed legs to what is causing your hips knees and ankles to create this shape.  Book an Anatomy in Motion appointment to begin getting to the crux of this. 

Our Osteopaths are very much about deciphering the root cause of your puzzle. We have some unique skills from our Anatomy in Motion education that has created a framework to objectively look at how your posture, movement issues and pain are all related. We will look at your whole history and your whole body which unfortunately is rare in the manual therapy world.

If you are eligible for a Chronic Disease Management plan from your GP then we are able to claim part of your fee for you on the spot with medicare. There will still be a gap to pay.

If you are covered for Osteopathy then absolutely. You are able to claim it directly at the clinic.

If you come as a private client you do not need a referral. However for Dept. Veterans Affairs or Medicare subsidised treatment with a CDM plan, a GP must provide us the correct documents.

Workcover & TAC clients require a valid claim number to book in. This needs to be provided prior to the appointment so we can organise any requirements with these 3rd party providers.

We have reception available to receive your call on 9859 5059.  You can also use the convenience of our online bookings.
