Osteopaths can treat whatever a physiotherapist treats and will often treat other conditions too. The treatments mainly differ in that osteopathy concentrates on a more hands on approach whereas physiotherapy will, in general, concentrate on giving exercises. The two therapies overlap and it will vary depending on the way in which the therapist works. Osteopaths also give out exercises and Amba Clinic is a firm believer in educating you in ways that you can help yourself.
Osteopaths uses massage, stretches and mobilisation techniques to help reduce your pain and increase your mobility and therefore your overall comfort. Manipulations can be carried out by osteopaths but here, at Amba Clinic, we will always explain what we are doing and why and also make sure you are happy for us to proceed. A manipulation (the famous "clicking" technique), is not always used; it is used only if appropriate and with your permission.
