February 2010: A new Osteopathic clinic has opened in Daventry to provide care to patients in the town and surrounding areas.

Osteopath Direct has opened at the One to One Health Centre and gym on High March in Daventry led by registered Osteopath Luke Dillon.

Osteopathy is an NHS-recognised therapy that relieves pain, improves mobility and significantly enhances the quality of life for many patients – all without the use of medication or surgery.

Luke Dillon is an experienced practitioner who trained at the British School of Osteopathy in London and uses a combination of techniques to treat patients of all ages. In addition to effective treatment, Luke places a great emphasis on helping and advising patients regarding their work-life, sleeping postures, diet and exercise.

Luke Dillon said: “Osteopathy is an increasingly important form of healthcare, so we are delighted to be bringing a professional and comfortable new practice to residents and workers within Daventry and the surrounding areas.”

Osteopathy can help people of all ages with a range of conditions from back and neck problems including ‘trapped’ nerves, muscle and joint stiffness and sports injuries, to postural problems, repetitive strain, pain associated with arthritis and the effects of trauma such as whiplash.

Luke Dillon is registered with the General Osteopathic Council and a member of the British Osteopathic Association and London Osteopathic Society.
