‘You’ve been told ‘just to live with the pain’

‘You feel like you've seen every therapist but you're still suffering'

‘You know you can feel a million times better but just need the right person to put it all together for you'

We're glad you haven’t given up and still searching for possibility. You’re exactly the type of person we love to work with. The MetaMed clinic was established by Dr. Jin Ong– Osteopath, Herbalist, Medical Acupuncturist and Psychosomatic Therapist a passionate Osteopath on a mission to liberate people of their pain and inspiring them to live to their full health potential.

What’s involved?

When working with our Osteopaths we listen to what you and your body is telling us. Creating awareness of the mind-body connection in patients is pivotal to our approach. We help you acknowledge why your body is in its current physical state and to release these issues that may be inhibiting the healing process.
Our Osteopaths use an intuitive approach to treat the body, using mainly structural and direct techniques to treat the musculoskeletal system such as: soft tissue massage, manipulation, cupping as well as exercise prescription. With a focus on education and preventative health, when we work together you will learn how to take responsibility and action in your recovery and wellbeing.

What does treatment involve?

Osteopaths use a wide range of techniques that are safe and effective. These range from soft tissue massage, joint manipulation (articulation, mobilisation, high-velocity low amplitude cavitation ‘cracking'), muscle energy technique, stretching, cupping and prescriptive exercises. Some of our Osteopaths have extended scopes of training including acupuncture (click here for the difference between Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Western Medical Acupuncture (WMA) which includes), cranial osteopathy, herbal medicine, psychosomatic therapy and functional movement.

Each person is assessed as an individual and treated accordingly. Within the MetaMed clinic, we have Osteopaths with many different skill sets and collaborate with one another as well as other practitioners external to the clinic to provide the best possible care.

MetaMed Osteopaths have all undertaken university training to obtain qualifications and skills as an Osteopath. All of our Osteopaths have also undertaken extra post-graduate training in other areas that complement their treatment. Australian trained Osteopaths undergo 5 years of university training including an undergraduate bachelor degree and postgraduate Masters in Osteopathy. UK-trained Osteopaths undertake 4 or 5 years of university training and obtain an undergraduate bachelor degree in Osteopathy. As primary health care practitioners Osteopaths are trained to perform standard orthopaedic testing of the musculoskeletal system and are able to identify when conditions may need a further medical referral.
