So, what is Osteopathy?


✅ Osteopaths are allied health professionals that offer a patient-centred approach to healthcare which recognises the important link between the structure of the body and the way it functions.
.
✅ Osteopaths focus on how the skeleton, joints, muscles, nerves, circulation and connective tissue function as a holistic unit.
.
✅ Our Osteopaths will perform a skilled examination and provide you with a working diagnosis and a reason for why you may be experiencing pain or suffering from an injury. Our Osteopaths understand that every injury is unique so your treatment at VHO is tailored directly to you.
.
✅ Our Osteopaths utilise many techniques in treatment including massage, stretching, mobilisation, trigger point therapy, dry needling and manipulation of the muscles, tendons, ligaments and specific joints. Rehabilitation, exercise prescription and advice may also be provided as part of your treatment program.

About Tom McCormick

Dr. Tom McCormick (Osteopath) is the Director and Principal Osteopath at Valued Health Osteopathy in Bentleigh East. Tom is a qualified Osteopath and Dry needling practitioner and is also a Level 1 Strength and Conditioning Coach. Tom has also completed further studies in optimal movement patterns with the FMS (Functional Movement Systems).Tom believes it is important to address the immediate issues causing pain, however feels it is equally important to improve his patient’s ongoing movement, tissue quality, muscle activation and muscle strength in order to optimize injury recovery and reduce the chance of re-aggravation. Since Tom graduated as an Osteopath he has had the opportunity to work both in Queensland and Victoria within private practice and has worked closely with sporting teams. Tom has suffered many injuries and complaints over the years due to his heavy interest in sport. From broken bones, torn cartilage, tendon and muscle injuries to even a double hernia repair, this is ultimately what led Tom into the health field. Tom has a hands on approach to healthcare by utilizing a broad range of techniques that are tailored specifically to each patient. Such techniques include mobilization, soft tissue massage, stretching, trigger point therapy, dry needling and exercise rehabilitation. Although Tom enjoys treating athletes, he also thrives on the sense of enjoyment that comes with helping his patients of all ages with many other injuries. Tom also has experience in treating headaches, back and neck pain, hip, knee and ankle injuries and shoulder and elbow pain. Here at Valued Health Osteopathy Tom will use his Osteopathic experience, coupled with his further training to assess, diagnose, rehabilitate and treat in order to get you moving better with less pain. Outside of work Tom loves to travel, watch plenty of sport, exercise and loves a good coffee.
