The choice between an osteopath and a physiotherapist depends on individual preferences, the nature of the health condition, and the preferred treatment approach. Osteopaths typically adopt a holistic approach, considering the entire body and lifestyle in their treatment, with a focus on manual techniques like manipulation, stretching, and massage. On the other hand, physiotherapists often emphasise rehabilitation and exercises, targeting specific areas of injury or dysfunction.

Both professions have unique strengths, and the decision should be based on personal preferences, the specific health issue, and the treatment approach that resonates best with the individual. Please feel free to discuss your needs with our team.
