Melanie has been studying the Biodynamics of Osteopathy courses since 2002 and has now completed Phase Nine. She says "I have found the experience of working with the refined skills Biodynamics encourages, enables me to treat more complex and chronic problems in a very gentle and effective way. 
 
Melanie was recently on a course to help develop the future competency requirements for Paediatrics Osteopathy in New Zealand. "We were reviewing how we assess a child medically and osteopathically from newborn to young adult, for a wide variety of common and not so common conditions.  It's about ensuring all New Zealand osteopaths who treat babies and children are competent and safe."
