Osteopathy will definately help!!! I am a HUGE advocate. I had an acute episode of back pain last year and literally couldn't get out of bed. I saw my Osteo and 2 days later I was able to do the grocery shopping! I see her regularly between my shoulder and my back. I went for nearly 12 months with no issues and then got slack with my exercises and had another flare up (not as bad) and she has helped immensely. I strongly believe if I didn't have her, I'd not be able to walk at the moment. She also works in conjunction with my Physio (whom I see for clinical pilates) and my personal trainer (they call it Team Mother Goose ). It might take a few session before he notices a huge difference but it will definately help. Once they are on top of the issue, he will just need to go for maintenance which is usually every couple of months. I'm happy to give you her details - she works in Greensborough but also works at another clinic in Essendon (I'd have to get those details from her tomorrow though). Just PM me if you're interested.
