What you can expect from our team
Osteopathy treatments offer excellent relief from a wide range of treatments. During your first visit to our clinic which will last for approximately 60 – 90 minutes, we’ll study your detailed medical history including the reason for your visit. We will then examine and treat you appropriately. During the treatment process, it is normal to feel sensations of warmth, pressure, tingling or you may feel nothing at all. All subsequent treatments will last for approximately 30 -45 minutes. For further details, talk to our team today.
Post treatment
A few patients may immediately feel slightly light-headed but this will pass. Some people feel sore for 24 hours and others tired. It is recommended that you do not exercise on the day of your treatment and take things easy for a day or two to gain the most from your treatment.
Treatment for children
To keep children relaxed and occupied during treatment we have toys and books in our treatment rooms, but feel free to bring any with you. Do not worry that your child is not very good at staying still, we are very adaptable! Babies may be fed during treatment and this can sometimes be helpful.
Sessions
In general, the longer you have had the problem and the greater the severity, the more treatments are required. The average is usually between 2-6 sessions. Some people opt to come back for maintenance treatments, usually once every three months to keep them problem-free.
