Get your body behaving the way you think it should. Choose your therapist wisely and you will get more than a quick panel beating. What’s the difference between osteopaths, chiropractors and physiotherapists? It’s a question we are asked all the time. If you have visited one of these professionals I am sure you will have formed your own opinion. At the Peace and Performance Clinic we have osteopaths who have a wealth of experience and expertise and are able to help resolve long term as well as acute injuries. Osteopaths specialise in understanding how the efficiency of the body is being compromised, utilising hands-on understanding of the tissue states, alongside orthopaedic testing and functional movement analysis. A comprehensive case history with sufficient time allowed in treatment sessions to really understand your system (typically 30-45 minutes), enables the osteopath to offer the best of manipulative, soft tissue and exercise rehabilitation skills. The emphasis is on you understanding what has happened and the best way in which you can encourage your body to heal rapidly and effectively. ACC agrees that osteopathy seems to offer good value. A recent communication indicated that for two common codes (neck sprain and lumbar sprain) osteopaths were able to treat the condition to a 96-99% level (return to independence, no further claim - compared to physio at 60-65%) in fewer treatments than a physiotherapist (typically 74% of patients treated in fewer than five visits compared to 65% in physio). The Peace and Performance clinic at Paul Matthews Road has the highest calibre osteopaths available, alongside exercise specialists and a massage therapist. We can help resolve pain and injury and start the ball rolling towards a regular appropriate exercise habit, keeping you relaxed throughout the process. If it is important to you that you get a full recovery quickly, then consider a Peace and Performance clinic osteopath next time. Have a great summer!
