Dr George Stylian Osteopath

After graduating in 1980, George returned to Sydney from London and started private practice and teaching undergraduate Osteopathy. 

George has been practising Osteopathy for more than 34 years specialising in all aspects of Osteopathic practice including Osteopathic Paediatrics. George uses a variety of gentle osteopathic approaches that helps release strains in the body and to allow the body's own potential to resolve the body’s traumas, stress and strains. These benefits can be achieved with very little risk of trauma to patients, both young and old. The benefits are longer lasting and in many cases permanent. The body is given a guiding hand to help it resolve the physical patterns that are formed by injury, disease and trauma.

George's qualifications in other modalities complement his osteopathic treatments, such as nutritional and dietary advice and good quality herbal and nutritional supplementation.
