What should I expect from my first session?
During your first consultation, your osteopath will spend some time listening to your complaint and asking you questions about your health and lifestyle. The information you provide will be recorded in your file. Following taking your medical history, your osteopath will examine your body and start treatment right away.
Does osteopathy include massage?
YES, Osteopathy is based on the principle that the wellbeing of an individual depends on their bones, muscles, ligaments and connective tissue functioning smoothly together. Osteopaths use physical manipulation, stretching and massage with the aim of increasing the mobility of joints.
Is an osteopath better than a massage therapist?
Osteopathy is similar to massage therapy, but has a wider scope and a goal of whole-body healing
