WHAT TO EXPECT

During your first osteopathy session, the osteopath will ask about your symptoms, general health and any other medical care you're receiving before carrying out a physical examination.
The osteopath will use their hands to find areas of weakness, tenderness, restriction or strain within your body, particularly the spine.
With your consent, you'll probably need to remove some clothing from the area being examined, and you may be asked to perform simple movements.

DO I NEED A DOCTOR’S REFERRAL?

No referral is required.

IS OSTEOPATHY PAINFUL?

Osteopathy isn't usually painful, although it's not unusual to feel sore or stiff in the first few days after treatment, particularly if you're having treatment for a painful or inflamed injury. Your osteopath will explain whether you're likely to have any reactions. If you feel any pain during or after treatment, tell your osteopath.
