Osteopath in Rosedale, North Shore Auckland
Welcome to our Clinic!
Whether you're seeking help with pain, stiffness, reduced mobility or a musculoskeletal injury, osteopath Raymond Daniels provides individual, hands-on care tailored to you.
Osteopathic treatment may include gentle manipulation, mobilisation, targeted pressure-point release, soft-tissue techniques, stretching, movement advice and patient education.
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a hands-on approach to healthcare that considers how different parts of the body work together.
Rather than looking only at the area where you feel discomfort, an osteopathic assessment considers your movement, joints, muscles and other factors that may be contributing to your symptoms.
Treatment and advice are then tailored to your individual presentation and goals.

Osteopathy, Workplace Presentations & Manual Handling
What Osteopathic Treatment May Include
Gentle Manipulation & Mobilisation
Hands-on techniques may be used to help improve movement in joints and surrounding tissues.
Soft-Tissue Treatment
Soft-tissue and targeted pressure techniques may be used where appropriate to address muscular tension and restriction.
Stretching & Movement
Ray may incorporate stretching, mobility or movement strategies depending on your presentation and goals.
Practical Advice & Education
Understanding what may be contributing to your symptoms is an important part of Ray's approach. Where appropriate, you'll receive practical information and strategies that you can use outside the clinic.
What to Expect at Your Appointment
Your appointment is built around your individual presentation rather than a fixed treatment formula.
-
Discuss your symptoms, relevant history, work, sport and day-to-day demands.
-
Assess movement and other factors relevant to your presentation.
-
Where appropriate, provide hands-on treatment together with practical advice, movement or mobility strategies.
Care Built Around You
At Better Bodies Osteo, we believe feeling comfortable and mobile can make a real difference to how you live, work and move.
Your work, sport, activity levels, previous injuries, movement and day-to-day demands can all influence what you are experiencing.
Ray takes the time to understand your symptoms, movement, lifestyle and goals. His approach is to assess the individual rather than simply following a standard treatment formula, with the aim of helping you better understand factors that may be contributing to your symptoms and practical ways to support movement and recovery.
Collaborative Care When You Need It
Sometimes osteopathy may be only one part of the picture.
If Ray believes your presentation requires investigation or input from another health professional, he can discuss this with you and recommend an appropriate next step or referral.
The priority is helping you receive the care that is appropriate for your situation rather than trying to manage something that would be better assessed elsewhere.
ACC & Osteopathy
Raymond Daniels is registered with the Osteopathic Council of New Zealand and holds a current Annual Practising Certificate. He is also an ACC-registered treatment provider.
If ACC covers your injury, it contributes towards the cost of your osteopathic treatment. A patient co-payment still applies.
If you are unsure whether your injury may qualify, contact Better Bodies before your appointment and we can explain the process, how it works, and whether we can lodge a claim electronically on your behalf.
