Is your pain and discomfort taking over your life? Is it stopping you from doing things? Take action, with the help of Rye Osteopathic Practice. It's important to know who you're speaking to and what their credentials are. You can find out more information about our staff and practice using the button below. To make sure that we're providing you with the right kind of help, it's important that you come prepared to your first consultation. Ideally, you should bring with you information about your current complaint and past medical history. Any information that you can provide about your lifestyle (i.e. sports, hobbies etc) will also help. An osteopath will begin by asking about your health and medical history. This will be followed by a physical examination, which pays particular attention to your posture, gait, mobility and musculoskeletal anatomy. Because we view the body holistically, you will be asked to undress to your underwear for the examination and treatment. This is because the cause of the condition often originates from other regions of the body e.g. osteopaths consider that an altered knee gait may result in neck pain which can lead to headaches.
