Initial appointments are 1 hour in length. Follow up appointments can be either booked for 30, 45 mins or 1 hour. The longer appointments are recommended if you’d like to go over self care exercises you can do at home, that are based on myofasical lines of movement.

Typically, I recommend booking 3 or 4 follow up sessions after the initial assessment. After that point, I will determine whether you need only maintenance treatments (once every 1-6 months) or whether you can benefit from more regular treatments (ranging from once/week to once every 2-3 weeks).

Osteopathic Manual Practitioners work with a wide range of patients who are have a variety of diseases & conditions. However, Osteopathic practitioners do not treat any disease directly. Rather, we treat the entire body to improve it’s ability to self-heal. Each body is unique and as such, Manual Osteopaths do not have one treatment protocol for specific conditions. We treat each person according to their individual physical structure and I often recommend booking an initial assessment to better see if Osteopathy is a good fit for you. You are also welcome to phone or email me directly to discuss your specific issue further. For a list of conditions that have been helped by Osteopathy, please see the section entitled “Osteopathy” on the homepage of this website.
