The Winter is fully upon us, and many people could benefit from a body MOT in Bristol.

As an experienced osteopath in BS6, there are significant benefits for patients when it comes to booking a Maintenance Osteopathic Treatment (MOT) at my Henleaze clinic.

We service and maintain our cars regularly for an annual MOT, and I firmly believe that the body should also get regular preventative maintenance or MOT. This is the perfect time of year.

It’s important to consider any existing current or previous issues within the body and give ourselves a good review and treatment on a regular basis.

A body MOT in Bristol can help, especially with the onset of colder Winter weather which can heighten joint and muscle problems.

Elderly patients can also be less active in the Winter and New Year, often with fewer trips outside due to weather conditions.

When the body is adapting to Winter weather, this can cause issues with joints or muscles, as well as make underlying previous problems reoccur for some patients.

This is where a body MOT at my Bristol clinic can be vital to some patients, for promoting health, maintaining a better level of movement, preventing issues from developing, and maintaining flexibility and stability in the New Year.

Winter brings dampness and cold, which impacts joints and muscles, whilst changes in air pressure can also negatively impact body movement and general mobility.

Patients can experience stiffness, aches and pains during the Winter, with a corresponding loss or reduction in flexibility.

By booking a body MOT in Bristol with me, patients can focus on their core stability and daily movement levels.
