Osteopaths will look at the whole you to diagnose the root cause of your pain by considering your body, the way it moves, the pain or discomfort you feel, any injuries or soreness you may have, and your health and lifestyle to determine its impact on you, your pain and your health. Osteopaths like to take time to listen to you, understand your concerns and what really matters to you.

Osteopathic treatment is very individualised and may be varied. Often, osteopaths will treat you with a range of techniques, including manual therapy, massage, stretching, mobilisation, manipulation, dry needling and exercise prescription. Osteopathy is a very hands-on profession.

By focusing on the whole person, an osteopath may treat many parts of your body, not just the part that feels sore. For example, if you go to an osteopath with a sore back, your osteo will often treat the neck, shoulders, back and legs because everything is connected and all of these areas can influence and impact your back pain.

Osteos will also talk to you about the activities that may increase your pain, your lifestyle, how you feel, and will consider all these factors to develop a treatment plan for you and to help you to understand your role in getting better. Their aim is to get you back doing the things you love.

Osteopaths must hold a current senior first aid certificate as part of remaining current for osteopathic registration.

I updated mine today nearby in Bundoora through CPR First Aid (another business open on a Sunday!) with a lovely bunch of people.

Always good to review knowledge, as well as learn something new as information gets updated.

Yassss, cricket season is approaching…and I can feel the collective excitement growing from each and every one of you!!

Ok, maybe not everyone, but for a good chunk of you at least 😆

Resharing my cricket blog while I think up my cricket goals for this season… two 50’s??… a six??…a half decent cut shot??…hmmmm

Any upcoming goals you want to share from your world? I love hearing about different skills and learning that people are exploring.

FROM THE BLOG: The iconic summer sport that is cricket 🏏

The iconic summer sport that is cricket is well loved by many. That victorious feeling when you crack the ball right in the sweet spot of the bat and off it runs to the boundary. Or taking that catch, and surprising even yourself that it stuck. Cricket is a fun and challenging team sport for all those who choose to dedicate time and energy to learning it nuances and advancing their technique and skills.

It can also be associated with the feeling of pain and restriction from injuries when we chase that winning feeling. Like any passion, we take risks in search of victory. Sometimes it pays off, and sometimes we get injured.

In my world, Sundays include markets and cricket, catch up cleaning to groovy tunes and getting into the garden.

Today it was for an extra shift at Your Body Osteopathy followed by a blood donation in Bundoora … hooray for both being open on a Sunday! 🙌🏼

I recently returned from a 6 day camping and walking trip in Kakadu National Park - a world heritage area. I had a wonderful time in such a special part of Australia, learning about indigenous culture, nature, and even seeing the nights sky like I’ve never seen it before.

Thanks to the team at World Expeditions for all your care and love for learning and sharing.

Feeling rested and back to helping people with their Osteo needs 😊

I hit a cricket milestone on the weekend, my first 50 runs!! 🙌🏼
Then I went out 😂🤣

I pulled up well after that game…feels so good when that happens. I have had some cricket injuries though. Feel free to read my blog that combines my love for cricket and my love for Osteopathy and wellness…

Catherine treats at the clinic are Tuesdays 1:30-6:30pm and Fridays 9:30am-2:30pm and starts with us on Friday August 20. Book online at yourbodyosteopathy.com.au

Catherine is a dedicated and conscientious osteopath who has worked at various clinics across Victoria. She has an incredible respect for all living things, a value that has woven its way into both her personal and work life. In her free time, she enjoys surrounding herself with life, be it outdoors hiking in beautiful green spaces or indoors creating a plant oasis for her and her family to enjoy.

Her support for her patient's health is immense and her appreciation for symbiotic relationships continue. She truly sees the value in a dynamic, sharing relationship between patient and practitioner and absolutely loves a patient who is wanting and willing to get better. Her appreciation for life is no clearer than when treating babies, she feels honoured to play a role in their health, and health of their family as a whole. A mum of 2 kiddos herself, she understands the wild journey that parenthood brings.

Catherine embraces every opportunity in which she can raise others up to their fullest potential and also taking on new information that her patients impart on her, to ensure her growth as a practitioner is exceeded only by the progress of her patient’s health.

Catherine Spiteri - Osteopath updated their info in the about section.
