What’s the difference between Chiropractic & Osteopathy?
The main differences between the professions is historical, as over the years times have changed and today there are far more similarities than differences. The differences are in the personal treatment style of the practitioner, not the profession itself. Both will use their hands to treat disorders of the bones, muscles and joints. Treatment techniques may include joint mobilizations & manipulations, massage, active release and prescriptive exercises.
Should I see a Chiropractor, Physiotherapist or an Osteopath?
At our Clinic, our Chiropractors treat in an extremely similar manor to our Osteopaths and Physiotherapists. Who ever you see will diagnose and treat in the same fashion.
