OSTEOPATHY

What is my treatment like?

Osteopathic treatment is suitable for everyone and I welcome clients of all ages and conditions. 

Treatment is always tailored to your individual needs and health. I strive to explain clearly and with justification how I treat your body. You can ask questions at any time during the treatment. My treatment is always tailored to my client's current situation, so no two treatments are the same. 

During the first visit, we will review your condition: your possible symptoms, general health and life situation. To determine the cause of your symptoms, I may examine the mobility of your spine or joints, perform differential diagnostic tests and palpate tissues and their movement. Acute ailments may go away with just one treatment, but chronic ones may require several treatments to be relieved. It is recommended to wear loose and flexible clothing for treatment.

After the treatment

After the treatment, it is a good to drink plenty of water and avoid strenuous exercise for a couple of days to allow the body's self-regulating and healing mechanisms to work. For the same reason, I do not recommend massage or other body treatments for at least a week.

Usually, after the treatment, you feel relaxed and rested, but sometimes you may experience other feelings, such as fatigue, emotional reactions, soreness, even pain. Such treatment reactions are natural and indicate a change in the body. Treatment reactions usually pass within a couple of days.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions after the treatment.
