I love Osteopathy and believe that as Osteopaths our services can be a great help to many people. My most memorable experience with osteopathy, and the reason I then became an osteopath, was observing the benefit that osteopathic treatment and management had on a close family member after they had suffered a significant back injury. I have seen many times and experienced personally that pain can be terrifying, upsetting, distressing, and can have a huge impact on not only quality of life, but work, relationships, and self-esteem.
Watching my close family member go through this pain journey was very difficult, and the reassurance, care, and efficacy with which the osteopath managed their case, the holistic approach, and the positive response that I observed in my family member encouraged me to look more into this profession.
That was the beginning of my love affair with osteopathy, something that has continued to grow and develop during my clinical life. I am now more passionate about what osteopathy offers to you, the client than ever before. I love that each and every case and person are different. Even if two people come into my clinic complaining of right sided low back pain, they are seen as two totally different cases, and there is no manual which tells me I then need to do x, y, and z as a protocol. Instead, as an osteopath, I use my clinical skills, including a detailed case history and examination to find out what has brought these two individuals to the point that their body no longer expresses health. I love as an osteopath we can spend time with each client, at OsteOasis our first consultation is an hour. This gives us time through discussion and examination what has caused the body to stop expressing health. We can then tailor the treatment protocol for their individual needs, no two are the same.
For me I believe that each time a client asks for my help by presenting at my clinic we enter into a contract. My role is to use my expert knowledge of osteopathy to find the most appropriate diagnosis and treatment for their presenting complaint. My role is also to be open, honest, and clearly discuss my diagnosis and treatment. I see the role of the client to be open, honest, and take on board the suggestions about lifestyle alteration that will help with their complaint. Together we solve the problem
