Osteopathy Appointments
New Patients
If you are visiting for the first time, you will need to book a ‘New Patient’ appointment. These typically take around 45 to 60 minutes and cost £65. They will involve taking a full case history, conducting an examination, and performing any relevant tests. This will be followed by providing you with a working diagnosis, agreeing on a treatment plan, and in most cases some initial treatment. For most conditions, I will also make some recommendations around exercises and lifestyle changes that could assist with your problem.
My experience is that patients usually require around 3 to 4 appointments to successfully address their problems, and/or manage their symptoms. More serious, complicated or longstanding problems may take longer. If I recognise that I am not the right person to resolve your problem, I will always let you know, and make sure you are supported to find the right help.
Returning patients
If you have already been seen as a new patient, all subsequent appointments should be booked as a ‘Returning Patient’. These appointments last around 30 mins, and cost £50. Typically, they will involve a review of your problem, followed by treatment, and new recommendations around lifestyle/exercises depending on how your problem is resolving.
