Our Treatment Philosophy
Learn more about our three step process to you becoming pain free
What happens In an
Osteopathy Appointment
Your first consultation will take 60 minutes during which your Osteopath will take a thorough medical history, followed by a physical examination. This examination involves palpation of soft tissues, assessment of joint range of motion, neurological and orthopaedic testing and referral for imaging if required. We assess all related body parts to your presenting complaint and follow with the appropriate treatment. You will leave with a comprehensive understanding of your condition and a clear treatment plan of how we recommend you would move forward. Return consultations are 30 or 45minutes. Our practitioners will only ever see one patient at a time, dedicating 100% of their time to you.

PHASE 1. Find our WHY you have your condition
This is the phase in your treatment in which we assess the condition,
treat the muscles, the nervous system and surrounding structures to
ensure that we return the tissue back to optimal function. The whole purpose of this phase
is to turn off the pain! Once we have reduced/eliminated your pain we can not start the next
phase of your treatment plan to ensure your pain does not return..
- Postural Assessment
- Neuromuscular assessment
- Functional assessment
- Manual therapy (treatment)
- Dry needling
- Joint mobilisation
- Soft tissue therapy
- Neural flossing
PHASE 2 – Re Programming
Once we have the tissue back to a normal level of function the second
phase of your treatment is to ensure that the muscles and neurological system are working
correctly. This helps improve your posture, correct neuromuscular firing patterns and
program your body to work correctly as an integrated unit rather than individual muscles.
During this phase we will
- Neuromuscular re program
- Muscle activation sequences
- Proprioceptor programming and training
- Stretching
- Restore full range of movement pain free
- Exercise rehabilitation programs
- Postural retraining
- Postural correction exercise
PHASE 3 – Consolidation
Now that we have got the body functioning correctly we now need to
consolidate its correct structure and function by strengthening the
muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue to ensure it is fit and strong so the injury does not come back to haunt you in the future.
- Establish correct primal movement patterns
- Develop more functional movement patterns
- Strengthen functional movement patterns
WHY a lot of treatment plans fail – and you relapse
Unfortunately, a lot of people do not finish the full treatment plan and relapse, with the pain and dysfunction coming back. This often occurs because people stop treatment once they are out of pain seeking understanding support like prüfung schreiben lassen for learning this concept. Pain is only one symptom of dysfunction, and a lot of the time we cannot truly treat the cause of the problem until the pain stops. In fact we can make the most progress in treating your condition once you’re are out of pain…
When you have an injury or a condition pain is a symptom of the condition not necessarily the cause of the program
