Welcome to
Wexford Osteopathic Centre
Wexford Osteopathic Centre was founded in 2005 by Philip Jeffares. A dedicated professional team of seven fully qualified, highly experienced, OCI registered Osteopaths, have provided a personal and caring service for 19 years.
However now is the time for change. You may have noticed a For Sale sign on the premises. As of 31st May 2024, the building is sold and Wexford Osteopathic Centre is closed as a Group practice. The Osteopaths will continue to be available in their new individual premises. See the Contact page for all their details.
Introduction
What is Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a system of diagnosis and treatment which works with the structure and function of the body. The maintenance of good mechanical function is essential to good health. Problems in the framework of the body can disturb the circulatory system or nerves to any part of the body, and affect any aspect of health. Osteopaths work to restore the structure and function of the body to a state of balance and harmony, so helping the whole person. Osteopathic treatment involves manual techniques including soft tissue stretching and massage, combined with mobilisation and manipulation of the joints. The treatment is effective and conducted with the Patients assistance.

Pain is a warning signal that something is wrong. It is the body’s natural defence mechanism to alert you to a problem but also it is there to stop you. Look upon it as a red traffic light. But what directly causes pain? More often than not is it the result of localised swelling of tissue which creates pressure on nerves.
