Visiting An Osteopath for the first time - How osteopaths work:

As experienced osteopaths we take the time to understand your symptoms, medical history and lifestyle which, in turn will help us to make an accurate diagnosis of the cause of your issue and formulate a treatment plan with you that will achieve the best outcome.

We will also need to undertake a physical examination which we will explain to you beforehand. This will often comprise of you undertaking some movements and for us to examine areas to feel for any tightness in the muscles and stiffness in the joints to identify problems.

Sometimes the cause of the problem may be in a different area to the pain, for example, pain in your lower arm may be linked to the nerves in your neck, so they may need to examine your whole body.

You may find that your osteopath may undertake other examinations, such as blood pressure or nerve checks, or even refer you for other tests such as x-rays, MRIs or blood tests. Occasionally, they may diagnose an issue that they are unable to treat and may refer you to your GP or another appropriate health professional.

As with any health consultation, we will record this confidential information to form part of your health record and store it in accordance with legal requirements for medical data.

What to expect during your osteopathy treatment:

Osteopathic treatment often involves manual and cranial sacral therapy - a range of gentle hands-on techniques that focus on releasing tension, stretching muscles, and improving mobility, together with exercises and helpful advice designed to help you relieve or manage your pain, stay active, and maintain the best of health.

Before we begin any treatment, we will explain what is involved so you can agree and consent to your course of treatment.

Osteopathic treatment is usually a very gentle process. There may be times when you experience discomfort during, or mild soreness after treatment. This will normally go away within 48 hours. We will let you know if we think that any of the techniques we recommend are likely to be uncomfortable.

If you experience serious or unusual symptoms after treatment you should contact us straight away for advice.

Osteopaths often work with, or might sometimes refer you to other healthcare professionals as required, to ensure you receive the most appropriate care and treatment.
