What to expect
At bansel Osteopathy and Holistic Health we provide a full assessment of your presenting condition and offer a comprehensive patient-centred approach to treatment to get you pain-free as quickly as possible.
We will listen to you and ask questions about your problem before we examine you to determine the condition of joints, tissues and ligaments. We will carry out a standing examination and then ask you to make simple movements to see how your presenting condition is causing you pain.
Some orthopaedic tests may be carried out to test reflexes, and further investigations will follow if necessary. Then, we will give a clear explanation of our findings and discuss treatment options with you. We’ll get started on your treatment plan straight away. Our aim is to get you pain-free as quickly as possible. We will also offer advice on long-term rehabilitation to make sure you stay out of pain and don’t relapse. This usually includes recommendations for exercises to do at home.
Treatments
We use osteopathy treatment and sometimes cranial osteopathy to manipulate the muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons, and where appropriate, soft tissue treatments, such as stretching, deep tissue massage, strain counter strain and muscle energy techniques. We also use medical acupuncture where appropriate. In naturopathic treatments we use a technique called applied kinesiology to determine muscle weakness, which can help us to understand any internal problems associated with your presenting complaint, such as reduced blood supply or nerve damage. We always explain everything to you as we progress.
