First time to DM Osteopathy? 

Your initial consultation will include some simple questioning regarding the presenting complaint and other relevant medical history. This will be followed by an examination of the basic movements and special tests to help formulate a formal diagnosis. We will then discuss these findings prior to any treatment. 

If further treatment is required, your returning consultation will follow a similar pattern, working towards the best self-management of the presenting complaint. All advice will be easy to follow, but if any further information is required, feel free to ask at any point, during or after the consultation. 

All consultations are 30 or 60 minutes and are carried out by appointment only. Same-day appointments are available, but subject to availability. We shall always endeavour to see you at your best convenience.

What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a manual therapy which helps to diagnose and treat a wide range of medical conditions. It works with the structure and function of the body and is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues functioning efficiently together. 

Osteopaths use hands on treatment techniques such as manipulation, articulation, massage and stretching to improve the mobility of joints, relieve muscle tension, enhance blood and nerve supply to tissues. 

Based on evidence Osteopathy can be said to help with such conditions as:

Osteopathy at DMO:

Further to the above principles, our Osteopaths at DMO have considerable experience in the prescription of exercises to assist the management of injury and performance. We believe that injury management should facilitate the patient’s ability to heal themselves. Education, awareness, self-management and exercise prescription are a vital part of this process. 

Regulation of Osteopathy:

All osteopaths in the UK are regulated by the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC).

Osteopaths are required to renew their registration each year and we provide registrants with an annual licence to practise. As part of this process, the GOsC checks that osteopaths have current professional indemnity insurance, remain in good health and of good character and have met mandatory continuing professional development requirements.
