OSTEOPATHIC CONSULTATION
History taking
The first session begins with a thorough discussion. The osteopath will ask you about your symptoms, medical history, past injuries, lifestyle, etc. All this information helps form a complete picture in order to identify the root cause of the problem and understand your specific needs.
Assessment
A detailed physical assessment follows, including observation, palpation, and functional tests. The osteopath will check your posture, joint mobility, muscle flexibility, and any areas of stiffness or pain. Depending on the case, you may be asked to perform simple movements or undergo more specific assessments.
If necessary, the osteopath may refer you to another healthcare professional for further examination.
Personalized Treatment
Based on the findings of the assessment, the osteopath will discuss the issue with you and suggest a treatment plan. Depending on your individual case, treatment may include gentle manual techniques and manipulation, stretching, joint mobilization, ergonomic advice, and recommendations for targeted exercises to perform at home.
Each treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs and goals. The aim is to provide natural pain relief, improve mobility, and restore the body’s overall function.
