🦴 Osteopathy vs Physiotherapy 🦴

What is the difference between Osteo and Physio? A question I’ve had quite a few times this week in clinic. It’s actually fairly tricky to answer these days as the treatment techniques can really cross over. I also hear which one is better for me? Have a read on and see if you can decide

Osteopathy and physiotherapy are both forms of manual therapy that aim to improve a person's health and well-being, but they differ in their approaches, with plenty of cross over in their treatments however.

Osteopathy focuses on the belief that the body has the ability to heal itself if the musculoskeletal system is properly functioning . Osteopaths use techniques such as manipulation, massage, exercise plans and stretching to improve the body's structure and function

Physiotherapy, on the other hand, focuses on restoring movement and function to the body through a variety of techniques such as exercise, manual therapy, education, and advice.

Both osteopathy and physiotherapy have their strengths and can be effective in treating various conditions. The choice between the two often depends on personal preference, the specific condition being treated, and the individual practitioner's approach. It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional to determine which therapy may be most suitable for your needs.

In short it really depends on what you and your body prefer ... See MoreSee Less
