Melinda Banks
Osteopath
Melinda returned to Australia in 2006 having worked in New Zealand and
Ireland. She has been practicing Osteopathy since 2000 and continues to
compliment her clinical experience with further study. She is
experienced in general Osteopathic practice and enjoys treating a wide
range of conditions from back pain to fertility issues.
Melinda has post graduate training in Osteopathy in the cranial field
and Biodynamics, and utilizes these gentle and effective treatment
styles. Through this approach to treatment she works with the body’s
own self healing forces to help people regain their health and resolve
pain. She enjoys working with people of all ages from newborns to the
elderly, who prefer a gentler approach to physical treatment. Patients
are often surprised at how quickly and effectively their problems are
resolved with this treatment, as it is without the cracks and crunches
they associate with manipulative treatment.
Melinda has a strong interest and clinical experience in treating
pregnancy related problems, babies and children. She treats babies
suffering after traumatic and difficult births, colic, reflux,
recurrent ear infections, feeding difficulties and also performs post
natal check ups for newborns. Melinda also treats children who are
susceptible to recurrent infections or who have learning and
behavioural difficulties.
Through Osteopathic treatment the whole patient is treated so they can return to a state of health and balance.
