Is Osteopathy Right For Me?

If you are unsure whether osteopathic treatment would be beneficial for you or your family, one of the osteopaths would be happy to discuss whether a consultation would be appropriate.

The First Consultation

On your first appointment the osteopath will take a full case history, this will include your general health, previous illnesses and current medication. You will then be examined. This will normally involve being taken through a range of movements to evaluate joint function and individual tissues. More specific clinical tests may also be carried out. After the examination the osteopath will explain the findings and, if appropriate start treatment.

Sometimes additional investigations may be required e.g. blood tests or x-rays and these can be organised.

Consultation is by appointment only

If you cannot attend an appointment we do require 24 hrs notice otherwise a cancellation fee will be charged.

Fees

If you think you may be eligible to claim for your treatment under your health insurance, please mention this at the time of booking your first appointment to ensure you are treated by the appropriately accredited osteopath.

Osteopathy is now accepted by most private health insurers and the practice is recognised by them, including, BUPA, PPP, HSA, WPA and Norwich Union.

Home visits

Home visits are available for patients who are unable to come to the clinic.
