What does treatment involve?
Typical osteopathic treatment begins with a detailed case history, where we gather information about your symptoms, their progression, and your medical background. This is followed by a thorough physical examination before proceeding to treatment, if appropriate. At OsteoFirst, we tailor our techniques to each individual, ensuring your treatment suits your unique needs. These techniques may include soft-tissue massage, joint mobilisation, muscle energy techniques, and joint manipulation. Our osteopath is also trained in medical acupuncture and can incorporate this into your treatment with your consent, where suitable
