FAQ

If you have any questions you can always get in touch via email, however feel free to look through some Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Does it hurt?
    Communication is always very important when it comes to the patient practitioner relationship, so if anything is painful, I can alter technique to make you feel more comfortable.
  • Do you treat Children?
    Yes, I treat children upwards from 5 years old. Any child under the age of 16 will need a parent or guardian in the room. If you need any advice on where to seek treatment for babies, let me know.
  • Can my partner/friend be there as well?
    Absolutely! Everyone has the right to a chaperone. If you're struggling with child care as well, treatment can be quite entertaining to the little ones!
  • What is Osteopathy?
    In a nutshell, Osteopathy is a manual therapy that uses techniques including manipulations, muscle energy techniques and soft tissue massage to promote healing and alleviate your body from stress and pain.
  • How long does it take?
    While arriving, setting up and getting started shouldn't take more than 15 minutes. The initial appointment and follow up will both take 45 minutes. Then there will be time to pack up the equipment.
  • Is it just home-visits you offer?
    At this point yes. Home-visits are great because we can work around your schedule, whether it be with work or child care. Nothing should get in the way of your physical health. However, if you would prefer to be treated within a clinic setting, let me know and I will see if this can be arranged.
  • Will I have to undress?
    As part of the Osteopathic assessment you may be asked to dress down to your underwear; however, a vest and shorts would be perfectly fine as well and would not hamper treatment.
  • How much does it cost?
    The initial case history, assessment and treatment costs £85. Follow up treatments also cost £85.
