People often think osteopathy is “all about bones” because of the osteo prefix. Rather, osteopaths are concerned with restoring healthy functional relationships through the whole system of bones, joints, muscles and nerves.
Another misconception is that osteopathy is just for bad backs. True we treat a lot of bad backs, partly because back problems are very common. However, osteopathy is applicable to the whole body, from head to toe. So if you are not sure if osteopathy is for you, please feel free to contact us at one of the practices and ask to have a word with one of the osteopaths. |
