Phase 1 Relief Care – Osteopathy

Your Osteopath will start your care plan. They will take a full medical history and diagnose your problem. They will then provide Osteopathic treatment to help resolve your pain and get you moving freely as quickly as possible. To get the best results your Osteopath will co-manage your care plan with Lisa or Michael Clark (Co-founders, Senior Osteopaths and Rehabilitation Specialists). At a suitable stage in your recovery (typically when you reach 70% symptom improvement) they will schedule an appointment with either of them to further assess and incorporate Corrective Exercise/Rehabilitation into your care plan.

Phase 2 Corrective Care – Studio or Home Based

Michael and Lisa’s Co-management approach is unique, ensuring the symptom relief you receive from Osteopathic ‘hands on treatment’ is re-enforced with suitable corrective exercise. They will perform many additional orthopaedic and muscular tests and design a suitable exercise plan for you. The level of detail they go through is unlike anything you would receive on the NHS and this is why their programmes are so effective. Depending on the severity of your injury and what is necessary for your recover they will recommend either home based programme or working with them and their rehabilitation team in the onsite training Studio.

Q. Why is exercise so important to my recovery?

It’s vital to complete your care plan and not self discharge. While pain relief is very important research shows that without also correcting underlying weaknesses and imbalances you symptoms will very likely return time and time again and never get ‘fixed’. Michael and Lisa have for many years worked closely with Osteopaths, Doctors and Surgeons to incorporate corrective exercise into patients care plans and have a reputation for resolving the underlying root causes. As mentioned above the level of detail they go through is unlike anything you would receive on the NHS and this is why their programmes are so effective.
