What Is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is an established, recognised system of diagnosis and treatment that lays its main emphasis on the structural integrity of the body.
In other words osteopathy believes that symptoms often stem from abnormalities in the function of the body. These abnormalities can be corrected through osteopathic treatment, thus relieving the distress and discomfort.
How Does Osteopathy Work?
Osteopaths do not look on patients simply as back sufferers but as individuals with their own unique requirements for health.
An osteopath looks at the body as a whole, not just the area that is afflicted; so every patient is assessed from a mechanical, functional and postural standpoint.
A treatment plan is then individually tailored to suit each patient's particular requirements. Each treatment consists of a series of manual adjustments (or corrections), employing a variety of osteopathic techniques that effect both the muscles and the joints.
The Treatment
When you visit us for the first time a full case history, including a medical history will be taken.
You will then be asked to remove some of your outer clothing (down to your underwear) if necessary and to perform a simple series of movements. This enables us to make an assessment of the problem and begin to understand any possible causes.
You will then receive a treatment consisting of a series of manual corrections. We will explain exactly what we are doing and why. You will be actively encouraged to ask as many questions as you want.
The Classical Approach
At Horsham osteopaths we all very much believe in employing a classical approach to treatment. Classical Osteopathy is a time-honoured traditional style of osteopathy that allows the osteopath to assess and treat the whole structure of the body.
Classical examination and treatment is thorough and holistic with the added benefit of boosting the immune system.
