"My baby had been having trouble "settling" so to speak. She seemed anxious and on edge, often sleeping for only three hours at a time. She would wriggle her hands a lot and would fright easily at sounds. She basically wasn't sleeping and the sleep she was getting was not good quality as she moved all around the bed . - which means that I was not getting much sleep either.
As well as this aggitation she seemed to favor one side and arching her back after feeding and in her sleep. I decided to take her to Ryan at Harvest natural health. My family had recommended him to me. I wanted to get this sorted out before she got any older in case of longer lasting postural issues.We had three sessions in total and she is unrecognizible now. Sleeping for six hour stretches at night and there is no arching of her back anymore. And we see such a delightful fun calm personality emerging. The therapy was so gentle that she played with a toy for the duration of the sessions.
She is now seven months old and all my family have noticed a difference and she giggles happily and crawls and stands with ease of movement.
And the best part , I get a good nights sleep !
Thank you for making life calmer and easier for all of us."
Patient
"I had been experiencing pain, discomfort and tightness in my lower back and hip area for 18 months. The pain was mostly at a low level, so I didn’t do anything about it. Then I went through a period of sitting at my desk for very long spells, my back got worse and I ended up badly pulling muscles in my lower back. This was the trigger for action and I went to see Ryan with low expectations of him being able to get to the root of the problem given the length of time I had been experiencing pain and the fact that I had seen other health providers about the issues with little joy.
Ryan was very through and persistent in his examination, I could tell he really wanted to understand what was causing my back and hip pain issues. He applied a range of osteopathy treatments that, in combination, have addressed the fundamental problems I was experiencing with my back and hips. The low level pain in my hip disappeared and my back is in much better shape which has allowed me to re-engage with sport with more confidence.
The clinic has a nice, soothing vibe and I highly recommend Ryan’s approach to osteopathy and the range of techniques that he skilfully applies."

"I visited Ryan to find a solution to disrupted sleep and a teeth grinding problem. I had no prior experience of osteopathy, but Ryan's calm approach made me feel in good hands. He carefully explained the treatment, how long it would take and the potential results.
Fortunately within a couple of days of the first treatment my sleep quality had
improved and the teeth grinding had noticeably reduced. Ryan had reduced the
tightness around my jaw and ear, and re-aligned my jaw. After only three treatments I feel that the issues have been fully resolved.
I have no hesitation in recommending Ryan's osteopathy skills, and his pleasant manner will quickly put you have ease if you are nervous about the treatment."
