First appointment
Your first appointment takes longer than follow up appointments.
This initial appointment is to find out more about your reasons for visiting me, with lots of questions and discussion about where you may be in pain or discomfort and for full screening. I will then collect a medical history from you, this is relevant so that I can get a full picture of your current and previous health and how this affects your body and to check that Osteopathic treatment is appropriate.
I will then assess how your body moves and give you my diagnosis and whether treatment is appropriate. Treatment will then commence.
To be comfortable the best clothes to wear are tracksuit bottoms, leggings, sports leggings or shorts. A vest, bra or sports bra is also advised so that I can see how your spine moves.
